Made everything EASY! I've worked on both sides of several real estate transactions with several different real estate attorneys over the years and can easily say Chance at Lavelle Law was one of the best I've worked with. I'd recommend him highly to anyone.

Although I got nothing out of our interaction, I did get a $4000ish bill. I did not pay it. I suggest you avoid this firm. I kind of agree with other reviews: They're overpriced for a small firm, and they're not particularly effective. I think they think that their mission is simply to bill and make money rather than helping folks resolve their problems.

She ensured that I got the maximum compensation. Unbelievably though, before this accident settlement was resolved, I was rear ended at a stop light and decided to retain Vito and Dollenmaier again because of the excellent service I received. When dealing with them I never had to worry, all I did was complete my PT sessions and focus on my recovery while they worked hard and efficiently in the background. When you work with these lawyers, anytime you call, you will be able to speak with a lawyer and have ALL your questions answered. Small team who makes a BIG IMPACT. They take their time to provide the quality you deserve.

There are many unprofessional and unscrupulous bankruptcy attorneys out there. Chang & Carlin is…read morenot one of them. From the minute I retained them, I felt confident in their ability to represent me in my case. To respond to another review, no, they will not file your case until you pay your balance, and that is not out of the ordinary for Chapter 7 filings. But, the minute you pay your $100, they are your representative and you can simply tell your creditors to contact them. I don't think any bankruptcy attorney would be in business very long if they relied on bankrupt people to pay them back AFTER filing:) My case was a little more work than the usual case, but John was willing to go the extra mile and ALWAYS kept in touch with me. He'd return calls within 10 minutes if I couldn't get a hold of him. We even spoke as late as 9pm some days. I cannot recommend Chang & Carlin highly enough.

I would like to make it clear that this review is ONLY a review of my experience with the younger…read morePfeifer, Jeremy T. I have never met the elder Pfeifer and have had no interactions with him. I was pulled over on a little pedal-start motor scooter without a valid license and at my first court hearing the judge instructed me to come back at a later date with a lawyer present. I happened to meet Jeremy T. Pfeifer at the Bar Association office at the court house and came back to chat with him about the case. He gave me some advice and gave me his card and told me to call him if I needed representation. I took care of some outstanding tickets as I was advised to do and gave him a call back about two weeks before my court date. He said that he felt a fair fee for his services would be $2,500 considering my license had been revoked by the state. I told him I was going to take a few days to discuss it with my family and I'd be back in touch. I called a couple of friends who had been charged criminal traffic court offenses about the amount of money they'd paid. When all was said and done, the prices they'd paid seemed comparable (although, they were dissimilar in that they were DUI offenses and I have never had a DUI) so I decided to hire Jeremy. He said that he'd prefer a check prior to our court date which I thought was a little strange, but I also agreed to this. I assume criminal defense means dealing with unreliable people. I had check sent to him and he called me a few days after saying he'd not received it yet. I asked him to be patient, it was in the mail. But he said maybe instead I should bring a new check to his office and then he'd be happy to return my mailed check once it arrived. This offended me on a number of levels. a) It is fairly uncouth for an educated professional to hound a client for payment for services that HAVE NOT EVEN BEEN RENDERED (we were six days from the court date) as if they were destitute or desperate. b) Mr. Pfeifer knew from our conversations that I live about ten miles from his office, do not drive and have mobility issues relating to Multiple Sclerosis. His suggestion that I skip work (forfeiting about $450 in income) to find my way up to his office to bring him a check that was ALREADY IN THE MAIL suggests that he did not really understand who was working for whom, completely lacks empathy and demonstrates that he did not feel that my time was at all valuable. I at this point told him that he could wait for the check to arrive in the mail or I could instead stop payment on the check and hire a new lawyer. He told me thought it would be best if I hired a new lawyer. Not wanting to spend yet another $35 or whatever it was going to be to stop payment on the check to this guy, I asked him to, as a courtesy, write 'VOID' on the check and mail it back. He did agree to do this (earning the 1 star on this review that Yelp won't let me not give him). Guess what? The check came the very next day. My trip to Evanston, my calling into work would have been a complete waste of time had I agreed to this insane request. But wait! The most incredible part has yet to come, I called a friend who is a Yale Law grad and told him I was in a pinch. I just needed anyone to appear even if it was just to be granted a continuance so I had some time to hire a new lawyer. He gave me a phone number of a friend he said was good. I called Art, he agreed to help me and said his fee would be $350. Yes, that's right ROUGHLY AN EIGTH OF THE COST quoted to me by Jeremy T. Pfeifer. AND, I had the most favorable judgement I was ever going to get considering my driving record. Court was over in about 35 minutes. This guy is a bloodsucker. If you hire this guy, I'm sorry, but you're a plain, old sucker. I almost got taken for $2,150. I realize we're talking about lawyers so a degree of dishonestly and parasitic behavior is inherent to the profession, but I am livid about this man's behavior and will be reaching out to regulatory bodies to see if I can file a formal complaint.

Jeremy Pfeifer is a very good listener which immediately puts you at ease - at a time when your…read morehead is swirling a bit. Jeremy is a serious lawyer, but personable. He explains the applicable law and its nuances very well. If there is something for which he is unsure, he tells you and researches the details and re-confirms. He is realistic, and reassuringly optimistic. He focuses in on the the strengths and weaknesses of the case. He asks important questions. Listens to my meandering replies, distills the information, and shares his thoughts. Allows you to repeat your concerns, and puts the details into perspective. These were the traits exhibited to me at our first meeting and the main reasons why I chose Mr. Pfiefer to represent me. Later as I got to know Jeremy Pfeifer, he exhibited another idiosyncrasy. He really cares - He gets behind you all the way. When I was down in the dumps he kept me going reminding me that the law was on our side. Even when I could not attend hearings Jeremy was there getting back fees that were already paid. He takes it personally and though this is included in his fee, it is priceless. I have on other occasions called him for advice on other things and he is always available and has referred me to other lawyers. I have his card at my office and at my home, if I need help in the future Jeremy will be the first person I call.
