I consulted Erwin Law to draft a will since it was one of those things I've been procrastinating on…read more- who wants to prioritize the creation of a will? Alas, I found Erwin Law to assist me. I reached out via Yelp and we communicated mostly through email. I was given web forms to pay via credit card for the deposit and final transaction. We did most of the will creation over email, I was sent a form to complete then scan, and email back. For the final will creation, I had to visit the office in person and sign, along with Erwin's team. In all, it was a pretty realistic transaction for the creation of a will. Granted my will is not complex, so I cannot speak for someone with a lot of requirements, but Erwin Law did a great job for a basic will.

I contacted Attorney Leibowitz for an old unresolved matter that wasn't handled properly by a…read moreprevious attorney. I compiled a list of attorneys from the Chicago magazine Super Attorney list and every attorney I called either didn't respond or told me that they didn't want to get involved with my matter. I was beginning to lose hope going through the list but he called me back and the first thing I noticed is how friendly and down to earth he was. He patiently allowed me to tell my story and he was the only attorney that said he could help me. After he told me his strategy I agreed and from that day Attorney Leibowitz worked very hard on my matter and kept me in the loop on all his moves. Another thing I noticed in his methods was his professionalism and character. His manner on communicating with parties while advocating for me was really a class act. Along the way there more than a few road blocks that came up and he would fervently deal with each one while simultaneously putting me at ease. At one point things were dragging on from the other end and I was losing hope and he reassured me and worked his magic and my matter was resolved even better than I even expected. I highly recommend Attorney Leibowitz for anyone seeking a knowledgeable, professional, class act lawyer that will vigorously advocate for them.

My mother passed away 2 1/2 years ago. The attorney who wrote her Trust and Will had retired, but…read morestill reachable. He suggested we get in touch with Ed Reda. Boy am I glad we did! From the first day we met until the closing of my mother's estate, he always responded quickly when we reached out with questions or concerns. Little did either of us know how challenging the journey would be. When one of the family members became difficult and demanding, he handled it very calmly and with diplomacy. All the while having a good sense of humor with the rest of us. If you ever need an attorney for family law or settlements, reach out to Ed. He and his assistant, Joy, know what they're doing and are willing to do what it takes to get the estate taken care of from beginning to end smoothly. Thank you!

In January of this year, a nuisance lawsuit filed by pro se plaintiffs landed on my door. I was…read morestunned and distraught. I cannot give details, but their claims against me were outrageous. I had also just recently gotten engaged and wanted to be spending my spare time with my fiancé planning my wedding, not fending off a nuisance suit.  I called Peter Lubin and he picked up the phone even though it was after 9 PM on a Friday night. Peter and his partner, Andrew Murphy, handled my case expertly. They caught the plaintiffs in numerous mistakes and adroitly used those mistakes to my advantage. I'm an intelligent person, I love to argue, and I've often been told that I missed my true calling as an attorney, but I can't even begin to say how glad I was that I called DLA and didn't try to handle my case myself. I (like the plaintiffs) would have made so many mistakes had I gone pro se.  Peter and Andrew got the case against me dismissed with prejudice just 2.5 months after I was served, leaving me free to plan my wedding in peace. That's what you call "results."
