Carlo is an outstanding attorney. He's extremely intelligent, strategic in his thinking and street smart. He was an outstanding advocate for me. I hired Carlo for my divorce, after letting my first attorney go. When my ex-wife took me back to court, I hired Carlo again and he did a great job. He has built many great, working relationships with other attorneys over the years, which helps during the proceedings. I also referred my best friend to Carlo, who also handled his divorce. I would not hesitate to hire Carlo for any legal representation that you might need. He is a jem in the Fox Valley area.

I highly recommend Carlo Colosimo as a superb divorce attorney. He is ethical, smart, realistic and extremely well versed in courtroom strategy and technique. Carlo became my attorney post-divorce Final Judgment when my ex's attorney began filing modification motions to the original Marital Settlement Agreement. I had been a Pro-Se during my divorce and learned that legal language can be convoluted and complex. I needed expert, specific advice to combat post-divorce motions that could alter the MSA's original intent, to my detriment. I am very fortunate that Carlo agreed to become my attorney. He read the original MSA and Final Judgment, listened to my concerns and immediately decided upon the best plan of action. Through the next few years as motions were filed by both sides, his focus on my goals, command of legal knowledge and ability to communicate in the courtroom proved over and over that he is truly a skillful and accomplished attorney. Carlo kept me updated at all times. He provided clarification as needed and quickly determined the most effective and successful way to meet my legal goals. I will always be grateful for his expertise in the past and will call upon him for my legal needs in the future. If you need an experienced, excellent attorney, Carlo Colosimo is an outstanding choice!

Carlo helped me with my divorce. He is very knowledgeable about the laws and was helpful in guiding me about what paths were worth taking and what paths would be more costly. His honesty and genuine heart helped while going through the divorce process.

After over 2 1/2 years of stalling by my two previous attorney's, I finally found an attorney that puts his clients first and cuts through the BS. He was able to bring my my divorce to resolution within months after years of struggles and empty promises. Carlo focused on the important issues at hand and suggested ways to save on attorney fees. You can tell that Carlo is passionate about what he does and cares about his clients. Carlo will by my attorney for life.

My ex came back and began threatening me saying he was going to take my kids away. I hired Carlo and that came to a quick end. My previous lawyer dragged things on forever. Carlo took care of it immediately. I will use him again as needed.

Carlo was there to advise me during my divorce 7 years ago. He easily won my trust and is now my go-to attorney whenever anyone in my family has an issue. I have recommended him several times!

I have worked with a handful of lawyers over the years due to house closings, as well as the purchase of a business. They range from so-so to good. You can tell they knew how to do their job, no question. The Carlo difference is simple-this is not a "job" to Carlo. It is who he is, his drive and passion are clear. You will believe you are his only client. I called Carlo on a Friday afternoon, met with him on Wed morning, and received my paperwork to proceed with my divorce Friday afternoon. What? I've waited far longer for an Amazon shipment! The best thing I can say about Carlo is I truly feel fortunate that I have finally found my lawyer for life. There's no question in my mind that Carlo's honesty is unwavering and I very much appreciate a straight shooter, which he is. Lastly, no lawyer is free, that we all know, but because he is so precise, you always can feel safe in that he is not procrastinating in hopes of an upcharge. In fact, he is the opposite. He gave me several pointers on how to save money on my lawyer fee. As a business owner myself, who puts people and my integrity first, over and above anything else I can proudly say I am working with my equal or better, with Carlo Colosimo.
