Dave and his law firm helped me out with my car crash case. He was easy to reach on the phone and email, always kept me updated and well-informed, and a much better settlement than I expected in the end.

Dave and his legal team did a really good job on my personal injury claim against a bus company. They fought hard for me and got a good result in the end.

He handled my auto case, did everything for me, I didn't have to do anything. He made it so easy, took all the pressure off of me. Perfect experience.

His law firm worked on a trucking crash case for me that happened in Will County. Really nice people to work with and I was very happy with the outcome of my case. They were easy to reach on the phone, I would definitely recommend them.

Dave's office handled a case where I had injured my wrist. I had to have surgery. The one thing that really stood out to me was how easy they were to reach on the phone or by email. Great settlement, very happy with the results. I would highly recommend their services to anyone injured in an accident, and I actually referred my son to the law firm after he was recently injured on the job.

Abels & Annes handled my work injury claim. They were very thorough, and tenacious when it came to negotiating a settlement. And my phone calls and emails were always promptly returned. I would highly recommend them.

Fabulous results on my auto accident case! I sustained knee, shoulder and back injuries after a driver rear-ended my vehicle. The insurance company made a low-ball offer so my lawyers took them to court. Eventually I received a settlement just under $70,000. I was extremely happy with the results. Also, great communication, easy to reach on the phone and by email, always a return phone call (which is uncommon with attorneys). Again, I highly recommend them.

I was referred to Abels & Annes by a family member who highly recommended the firm. I was injured after a CTA bus failed to yield while coming out of a stop sign. I had a fantastic experience with Dave Abels. Easy to reach on the phone and by email, solid advice on various issues, and a very good result at the end of the case.

Dave and his entire staff are simply amazing. Whenever I call I get the feeling that I am there number one client, even though I'm sure they have a lot of people calling a day. I have been so happy with all the results from working with Dave that I have nothing to worry about. If I ever have any questions I know that they are just a phone call away. Thank you Dave and your entire staff for making my experience of all the unknown so easy.

Mr. Abels did a very good job on my case. He always kept me well informed of the status of my case, and unlike other lawyers I have had in the past, he promptly returned all of my phone calls. I would highly recommend this lawyer if you have been hurt in an accident.
