I could not have asked for a better attorney to help me through my divorce. It didn't matter what was thrown at him from opposing counsel, he always showed grace under fire. He was flexible, available and direct with me from start to finish and I could not be more appreciative. When I asked another divorce attorney in a different county for a referral, she said "If you want the best, call Michael Biederstadt" and thankfully I did.

As I went through and recycled stack upon stack of my divorce documents, knowing that was just a very small percentage of all the files and papers that went through the Court over the past five and half years for my case, I reflected on how LUCKY I was to have had Mr. Biederstadt represent me. If it weren't for Mr. Biederstadt's professional ability, integrity, and decency, my children and I would still be entangled in a nightmarish situation that never seem to end. It was no small feat to get away from a malignant narcissist who viewed and treated us as his property. My ex-husband had such an extreme case of self-importance that, for a simple divorce case, he subjected us to numerous court hearings, countless paperwork, 9 days of trial, and 2 years of appeals. I wish that such an experience with my divorce never happened, but as it did, I am extremely thankful that by sheer luck or divine intervention that Mr. Biederstadt took my case and saw it through. Not only the large volume of legal work Mr. Biederstadt did was remarkable, but he has also taken the blunt of all the vicious personal insults, shielding my children and I from the worst of the confrontations. He enabled us to walk away whole and start anew. I am, and always will be, ETERNALLY GRATEFUL that Mr. Biederstadt was my attorney.

I have nothing but good things to say about having him respresent me during my litigation. He is very knowledgeable about the law, communicates well and is very organized. At the end of my case, I was fully satisfied and grateful to have him represent me in court.

Unfortunately I did not find Mr. Biederstadt when I first filed for divorce. I truly believe I would have had a faster, less excruciating process. Mr. Biederstadt helped me finalize some ongoing custody issues. Although I didn't get the entire outcome I had hoped for (by no fault of his, I just came to him too late in the game.) I truly believe that Michael did everything possible to get me the best outcome given my unique situation. Mr. Biederstadt always was available and attentive. I really felt like I was his only client! He was very honest and I felt did whatever he could to keep my legal fees as minimal as possible. Thank you for all your help.

Since the initial consultation, Michael has been clear and concise with expectation setting and guiding through one of the most difficult times in my life. I appreciated that he was honest and up front about the best case and worst case scenarios when it came to my case. I always felt confident and trusted his work. When it came to paperwork, it was filed in a timely manner and all copies were sent to me. I would HIGHLY recommend hiring Attorney Biederstadt for your family law issues. Also, he is not afraid to let you lead the way! He will give you what he recommends, but ultimately leaves the final decision making up to you. He is a man of his word, and made this an easy process. Thank you, Attorney Biederstadt for your work.

Finding a divorce lawyer isn't hard, but finding one like Mike is. He's as good a lawyer as you'll find, extremely diligent and honest and just as importantly is a really good guy. I have interviewed numerous lawyers, hired one I thought was going to be like Mike (she wasn't) and was eventually forced to represent myself Pro-Se due to financial difficulties. My divorce case was a mess when I found Mike and he got involved, and he was amazing. I can't recommend him enough. Don't bother reading another review of any other lawyer, Contact this guy. You won't regret it.

Michael joined my case almost a year into it. I had been interviewing attorneys and everyone was sooooo expensive and wouldn't take my case without a lump sum of the retainer, which I didn't have available all at once. I was being bullied constantly by my ex-husband and his 'missing some screws' attorney. I was going into severe depression, wanted to actually hurt myself. I had given up on attorneys, all the fakeness and crap that comes out of most of their mouths made me feel hopeless. As I was continuously being bullied from my ex-husband life seemed like hell, I didn't see a way out of it at all. I was told about Michael through a family member and all the praises I heard made me go in and meet him, at least just to get a consultation. From the moment I shook Michael's hand the first day, all my worries and depression went away. Michael came in took charge of every single thing. In our initial meeting Michael was so honest about his work and billing, that made me feel so comfortable immediately. I never stepped in the court again, I never had to look at any petitions being filed by opposing counsel (which were all filed to intimidate me). Michael handled my divorce so extremely professionally that I was just in awe. I was able to work on my health, concentrate on my work, kids and family (which was all getting affected due to my depression). Finally, I am a free woman, and freedom is the sweetest joy I have felt; I couldn't have done any of this without Michael. Wonderful wonderful professional individual. I could go on and on but I am truly thankful to Micael and his staff!!!! Hope you guys achieve all the deserved success heading your way! Thank you :D

Michael is an extremely knowledgeable family attorney. He was hired to assist me in a custody battle after the first attorney was not handling the case correctly. Hiring Michael was the best decision I made, as to his extreme knowledge and obvious experience in family law, he was able to turn the case around and provided me with the custody. Allowing me peace of mind knowing my child’s safe with me. I would highly recommend Michael to anyone needing family law. He is very honest, and upfront, works hard to get the job done and always fights for what is right. He is always there for his client, whether it’s answering legal questions, giving legal advice, returning phone calls and emails quickly and works with his clients to give them a peace of mind. There is no doubt in my mind that if I hadn’t hired Michael the case would have had a different outcome. I cannot praise or thank him enough. He is the best! I highly recommend and will definitely hire him again if needed in the future!

I hired Mr Biederstadt to help me with complex post divorce issues and multiple pending legal matters. I wish I had the fortune of knowing Mr Biederstadt from the very beginning of this litigation, because I’m certain all of these issues would have been avoided. He is extremely knowledgeable, skilled, experienced and compassionate. Mr Biederstadt took the time to explain the best options for me and he remained committed to my case until the very end. Unlike my former attorney, Mr Biederstadt always had my best interest in mind and he made every effort to find the best solution for me. I also appreciated his consistent efforts to communicate with me in a very timely manner throughout my ordeal. I truly felt like he cared about my case and he did his best to avoid incurring unnecessary costs which is a very rare quality. I have the utmost respect for Mr Biederstadt and highly recommend him to anyone who wants an excellent representation. Simply put, you will not find a better attorney than Michael Biederstadt...

Mr. Biederstadt was hired to assist me with my divorce case. The case lasted more than both of us would have liked, however despite that he assisted me in every legal detail and matter as it pertained to the case. He represented me to the very end and went to bat for me. He is very personable and will do everything in his power to get you the result that you deserve. He is extremely knowledgeable in his line of work and will explain anything to you if you don't understand or what the possible outcomes could be. This was a tough case as I lived out of the state but he assisted me and represented me through the courts and petitions and he excelled in every aspect of the matter. I would recommend Mr. Biederstadt to anyone who needs a great attorney because I hope I never have to go through this again, but if I had to and I lived in the Chicago area I would not hesitate to hire Mr. Biederstadt again. I was satisfied with the result and how he handled all the intricate details of the case. Again very good lawyer and person who has to do his job but is also personable and courteous.
