Along with representing me through my divorce, she also helped me get permission from the judge to relocate my daughter to another state affording me the opportunity to have a fresh start in life. Her fees are very reasonable and she let me set up an affordable payment plan. Her communication with me was timely and helpful. She advocated for me and made me feel like she genuinely cared about me and my well-being. I would highly recommend her.

He was able to take care of the first one in less time than I thought it would take, which in turn saved me some money. He is now in the process of the 2nd one and I'm totally confident that with his expertise in the law he or someone else as qualified could also complete the process. I would highly recommend this law firm for any kind of legal work.

I could not give a higher recommendation for an attorney dealing with a DUI case. It was quite clear he listened to me, and treated me with respect - I wasn't just a number. He let me know exactly what he expected as an outcome of my case, and delivered just what he said. I absolutely feel like he fought for me, and came to a just result. In my opinion, one could not have a better representative in their corner than Mr. Neiner. Don C.

This firm employs questionable ethics. I was in need of an attorney for a business and divorce…read morecase. I was assured that the attorney I was assigned was top of the line. For a year and a half I was strung along with no progress in my case, terrible communication, and this feeling that I just couldn't shake that something was off. All of this after being confidently assured the case would be resolved in three months. I paid this firm more than $26,000 before realizing they were accomplishing nothing more than draining my already strained bank account. As it turns out, the attorney working my case had been disbarred TWICE for ethical violations, including lying and falsification of evidence. They are now suing me for an unpaid attorney fees totaling a little more than $5000 (plus interest). Remember, I already paid over $26,000. Despite being sued, I have no intention of paying the remaining balance because I have strong reason to believe there is evidence they violated our contract. In fact, I may have a counterclaim against them. In addition, the wife of the owner is now harassing and threatening via digital messages due to my negative reviews of their firm. I am aware that libel is a serious offense, and I have made sure everything I have said has been absolutely true. I am just hoping to save anyone, like myself, who finds themselves in a difficult legal situation from wasting their time and money with this firm. Good luck and please beware. As a postscript to all this, my suspicions about this firm were confirmed when I hired a great law firm who swiftly took charge, won my case, and showed me how true professionals operate.
Bode Kirk W Attorney At Law
DO NOT HIRE !!! - I would not trust this asshat with even the most mundane legal tasks. This…read morejackass completely blew our case. We "suspect" that he traded favors for favors with the opposing counsel - either that, or he is incompetent (I highly doubt that he is incompetent). The problem that you have with small town attorney's is that everyone knows everyone, and therefore, there is a kind-of "camaraderie among thieves" if you will. It's unspoken, and therefore, unprovable. In my case, Mr. Bode's case was provided to him from a high level law firm in Chicago and all Bode had to do was execute as directed. However, it "seems" that Bode "threw the case", as no one could understand his action, and I am referencing other law firms. We hired Mr. Bode because we felt that he was a "snake" and expected him to take no prisoners'. Instead, we discovered that he is a snake, out for himself. The problem that "you" have with suing an attorney, is that the attorney can claim; 'Well your honor, they hired me for my expertise, and this is a disgruntle customer"... So in other words, don't waste your time, because you won't get anywhere. Mr. Bode is very aware of this. So the lesson for us is that it is better to hire an attorney outside of area, and pay for travel, versus hiring an attorney that has relationships with other attorney's in the area.

Exceptional Representation from Start to Finish…read more Working with Gary Morris was one of the best decisions I've ever made. From our very first consultation, they were attentive, strategic, and genuinely committed to understanding every detail of my case. They walked me through the legal process with clarity and patience--breaking things down in a way that made me feel informed and confident every step of the way. Their communication was consistent, their professionalism was top-tier, and when it came time to show up in court? They were absolutely prepared and commanding. What really stood out to me was their integrity. I never felt like "just another client." They advocated for me like they truly cared about the outcome, and it showed. The results exceeded my expectations, and I'm incredibly grateful. If you're looking for an attorney who's sharp, dependable, and relentless in the pursuit of justice--this is the one. I'd recommend Gary Morris without hesitation to anyone who needs strong, trustworthy legal representation.

Loosing that would have changed my entire family's lives in a very negative way. My best friend passed away from an asthma attack and I was then searched and they found a pound of cannibal oil. I was then charged with Manufacture with intent to deliver Cannabis. They also tried to charge me with a drug induced homicide because we were smoking pot. After months of fighting them, the homicide portion dropped off. I was then just being charged with the Manufacture with intent. I then tried to get a first timers probation (410) agreement and the states attorney denied because of an ATH of pot I had been charged with as a juvenile. Jim talked with friends of his and came up with TASC probation that if completed, could wipe the record of being charged with a felony entirely. I was then charged with what I was accused of and received 24 months of adult intense probation. Jim put it in the agreement to review for possible early termination at 12 months. 12 months to the day there was Jim, ready to make it happen for me. Jim persuaded the states attorney to allow a successful early termination by 12 months! HALF! Jim didn't stop there. With TASC probation you then have to file a motion to have the record wiped and vacate the conviction. So what does Jim do? Without me even needing to appear in court, Jim represented me and successfully persuaded the states attorney and the judge to VACATE THE ENTIRE CONVITCTION. When choosing a lawyer Jim and Amanda as a team are second to none. They will fight for you in a way to bring results. They understand and they care. Jim is truly an incredible lawyer skilled in the art of influencing others. LeFante law also has the man power to make you feel as if you are there only client. I couldn't ever explain how terrified I was, how emotional the process was... I don't know what I would have done without Jim and Amanda caring for me and my daughter. Jim really does go the extra mile. Even if he feels it would be a long shot he will at least take the shot for you. He did what every it took to make sure I felt he did all he could. Jim, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. My family thanks you.
I hired Kevin Sullivan of Peoria for a federal Clean Air Act matter. He quoted $50,000 to handle…read morethe entire case. I paid $25,000 upfront. In my experience the representation was extremely limited, roughly two hours of work. He took no notes that could be provided to subsequent counsel. Despite multiple phone and in-person requests, I never received any invoice or detailed billing statement, and I received no refund of any unearned portion of the $25,000. I had to retain other attorneys (including counsel from Sidley Austin and a North Carolina firm) to dig out of the situation, at a total cost approaching $1 million. I later received a full presidential pardon from the President of the United States for the underlying charges. Prospective clients should insist on clear written fee agreements, regular detailed billing, and actual work product before paying large retainers. My experience was highly unsatisfactory.
I retained Kevin Sullivan expecting competent criminal defense. What I received instead was total…read morenon-performance. Over the course of my representation, no meaningful discovery review was done, no strategic analysis was provided, and no serious negotiation with the prosecution occurred. I personally organized and presented the discovery in my case, which was largely disregarded. Despite this, I was repeatedly told that achieving a reasonable outcome was "impossible." Shortly thereafter, Mr. Sullivan withdrew from my case. Here's the part that matters most: new counsel achieved the exact outcome I was seeking in under one week--an outcome Mr. Sullivan insisted could not be done. That contrast speaks for itself. I'll say this carefully but honestly: perhaps Kevin Sullivan was a strong attorney 10-15 years ago, but based on my experience, he appears mentally checked out, disengaged, and unwilling to put in the work required today. The level of advocacy I received felt perfunctory at best. To make matters worse, despite minimal substantive work, my retainer was not promptly refunded, requiring further follow-up on my end. This experience was costly--not just financially, but in time, stress, and unnecessary uncertainty. If you are looking for an attorney who will actively engage with your case, thoroughly review discovery, and fight for outcomes rather than managing expectations downward, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere. This review is written so others don't have to learn the hard way.

It was so tough to fight a system for justice, that was built to protect itself, but he remained diligent and went into every detail of the case. He found every discovery possible to tell my truth. At no point, did he lower his standards to those of DCFS, he remained above all honorable, respectful, and more than competent. He sat with me when I was at my lowest, helping me cope with life and cared for me as a person not a paycheck. I truly believe he has fulfilled his calling to help others get the justice they so desperately need.
