I have bought firewood for years and I have used most of the competing business in Chicago, so I speak from experience, often bitter experience. I buy a lot of wood (we make a lot of fires!), usually a full cord in late fall at the start of fireplace season, followed by two face cords later in the winter after we've made a big dent in that initial order. The wood is a good combination of small and big pieces, the small pieces are great to start fires and the big pieces are perfect once the fire starts. Other places I've used I've had to split the wood one or two times, which while fun, quickly becomes a chore. As long as Jim runs Chicago Firewood, he's my guy. Highly recommended.

We were a bit skittish about redoing the rest of the bathrooms, but after meeting George at Kitchen & Bath Mart, we immediately trusted him. George did not disappoint. He (and Joe) thoughtfully designed two beautiful bathrooms, which perfectly matched two showers that they didn't even put in. George was unfailingly prompt, reliable, thorough and professional, every step of the way. George, Joe and Dennis kept us updated, started our project exactly when they said they would, and helped to create two bathrooms that felt like luxury at a very reasonable cost. The construction team, headed by Shaun, was as professional, prompt, courteous, and detail-oriented as George and his team. Shaun and his team were even able to help us with much-needed drywall and paint repairs in our home, which were not part of our original project. We are forever grateful to Kitchen & Bath Mart! We will definitely go back when and if we ever need to redo our kitchen. Highly, highly recommend. Kitchen & Bath Mart is one in a million.

Unfortunately over 6 years later and I have ongoing disputes with this lawyer. As for his response…read moreon yelp on 11/4/17 he is questioning my honesty and his explanation is totally false on everything. He is completely lying by stating that we actually were awarded anything in the court of appeals. The real truth is because of his negligence by not using an expert's testimony at the trial to determine my damages we were awarded nothing. The trial court disregarded the damages claimed in our case because it was me who prepared the damages and they deemed it unreliable because I am not an accountant. The court of appeals agreed that we are entitled to collect damages and sent it back to the trial court to recalculate the damages. The trial judge awarded us $45,000. This was again appealed. And the bottom line is we were awarded absolutely nothing because of Mr. Appel's massive blunder in the first place to not include an expert testimony to solidify our damages. Everything boiled down to we were damaged and entitled to fees for our damages but no one could verify how much our damages were. And if you re-read how much Mr. Appel charged us in the first place, he had absolutely no excuse to not use an expert witness. He is also being dishonest about his claim this he was awarded a summary judgement. He was awarded a partial summary judgement which is not final and therefore not appealable pending our counterclaim disputing his fee and malpractice. Finally in order to judge Mr. Appel's billing practice and moral compass, on April 24, 2018 Mr. Appel emailed my lawyer Mr. Bellas the following, "When we were last in court, you had asked for the amount for our attorney's fee claim remaining on out complaint. Our total fees and expense is, to date, $20,101.21." Just to make in abundantly clear to everyone. After Mr. Appel collected over $40,000 for a claim that started with an offer to settle for a little over $4,000, he is now asking $20,101.21 for the 3 page motion of a summary judgement for his fee to collect the $24,725.56 in the partial summary judgement. I would love to see Mr. Appel stand before a jury and explain that as a lawyer, he wants $20,101.21 in lawyer fees to collect on an unpaid fee of $19,373.12 (plus 5% monthly compound interest which totaled $24,725.56) with a straight face. These fees that are stated in Mr. Appel's engagement letter as, "in the event of litigation to enforce this agreement you agree to pay our reasonable attorney's fees and cost." It is my understanding that most of lawyer's engagement letters do not include such language and Illinois courts very seldom if ever award such damages. The irony of all of this is that I went to Mr. Appel in the first place to defend myself against being sued even though I was the one being damaged in the first place. Throughout the trial courts and appellate courts they all agreed that I was the victim and damaged but because of Mr. Appel and only Mr. Appel I have been awarded nothing and have spent several thousand dollars in lawyer fees. Lastly as for Mr. Appel's request for you to visit avvo.com to see "many positive reviews from our clients" please note that when I wrote my bad review on May 29, 2014 he only had one previous review from 2007. One day after my review he miraculously had two 5 star reviews, 4 within one week and enough within a month (all 5 starts eh?) to place my bad review to the bottom of the site. Goes to show how fully honest he is.

I continue to be so in love with this store. If you're into shops that will have you looking in…read moreevery single corner wanting every single thing, then this is your stop. Tonight I finished my holiday shopping for my niece and picked up a couple of beautiful gifts. The kids section contains high-quality merchandise. My hubby was literally double-parked outside, and I thought I could just run in and out, but no way. I wanted to buy the entire collection! From adorable natural cotton baby clothes to books, to stuffed animals, to toys, you will not leave empty-handed. They have something for every budget, and I think the prices are spot on for the quality. I truly admit to being completely obsessed with an adorable owl stuffed animal. Sooooo cute! Now, the best part about this store? Well, aside from the well-curated merchandise, is the owner. She's a total sweetheart and helped me pick out the perfect gift. She also gift-wrapped it in a super cute burlap bag with my choice of tissue color and a tie. Thank you...thank you. I'm so happy to see that this store is around. I need to stop in more often. Of course, not just for baby gifts, because they have grown-up goodies and cards too. Run, don't walk to this store. You won't be disappointed. Plus, it's super cute inside.
