Having gone through four other lawyers in a particularly contentious case I sought out a lawyer that was knowledgeable, direct, time-efficient and truly willing to listen to my concerns and objectives. Don delivered on all counts. I really appreciated Don's effective use of time and practical approach. I truly felt that he was in my corner and the corner of my daughter. I would highly recommend Don to any client that values the characteristics that I found so helpful in my case!

Don helped me (and my three children) through a difficult time with utmost professionalism, legal knowledge, and compassion. I could not have asked for a better attorney. My divorce outcome was much better than I could have ever expected thanks to him and his team.

I was battling an interstate child support case for non payment with no results and decided to hire Don to represent me in the DuPage County court system. His expertise expedited a case that allowed a non compliant parent to slip through the cracks in our legal system for a decade. Don is extremely well-versed and experienced in family law and I could not have chosen a better attorney to represent my children and myself. I can’t say enough how grateful we are for his lead and expertise in our case. I can tell you first hand he goes above and beyond to fight for his clients. Where the court child support system was failing us, he became our champion, our voice and we are forever grateful.

I hired Mr. Pesce when my Ex-wife took me back to court to increase Child Support. He was very upfront and honest letting me know what to expect in certain areas of my case were we had a good argument and also where there was no need to argue. I respect his honesty and appreciate that he would always return phone calls and emails before the end of the day. My only regret is I wish I would have hired Mr. Pesce to represent me from the beginning of my divorce. Mr.Pesce knows the laws and will fight for your best interests.

Mr. Pesce was efficient and easy to work with. He listened to your situation and gave you the pros and cons of which way to go. He suggested in your benefit and was willing to go the extra length to get results. He communicated regularly. Overall, I would recommend Mr. Pesce. I would also recommend attending each court date even if they suggest you do not need to be there. It helps the process move along and get results, otherwise to many continuous court dates and Mr. Pesce was agreeable and made the flow instead of dragging out a divorce for no need. You are able to stand up for yourself with the judge after all the case is about you not continuous court dates.

Don helped me with my visitation case and my child and I received the best outcome. Don really listened to our situation and gave the best advice for the best interest of my son. I am very happy with what we accomplished and I could not have done it without Don.

After a consultation with Donato Pesce I knew he was the lawyer for my divorce and child custody case. He was very knowledgeable in the law and dedicated to helping me fight for what was right in my situation. I am very pleased with his professionalism and the outcome. I was ignorant to American laws and he explained every step to me as we went so that I was completely prepared for everything. Truely an understanding and kind person. He doesn't just look at you like a paycheck. Definitely would recommend to anyone needing a family court attorney.

Don is one of the most thorough and knowledgeable attorneys that is out there. He represented me through a 2 year custody/paternity case in which he assisted me in finding my daughter whom I had not seen in over 10 years. Don was instrumental in the transition of me being reintroduced to my daughter and regaining the privilege of being a Father once again.
