Look no further! Bob Hanaford and team represented me in a fairly complex international transaction recently. I have lived abroad for four years in a country with very complicated recent travel restrictions due to COVID-19 and was unable to travel back to Naples for the deal. Mr. Hanaford’s service as my POA in the transaction was exemplary despite dealing with notarized documents from multiple international embassies and a 12 hour time difference. Always quick to respond, I very much appreciated his creative thought process and knowledge of my legal situation - things that certainly stem from his near 40 years of experience in the field. I am happy to finally able able to travel back to the United States. Should I get a DUI while celebrating the deal closing, will be reaching out to Bob as well. Couldn’t be happier with the service I received!

Clarence Darrow... maybe, right. You skillfully handled and navigated our family thru a nearly deadly car vs motorcycle accident. As a motorcycle owner yourself you understood our issues and concerns with no exceptions. Thank Bob for everything!

He listened to our problem/case and was very understanding and helped me know the next steps to take as well as getting back to me with connections of an attorney in my area to help further. I would use this service again due to him taking the time to get the facts of the case and pass on the info to get us real help in this situation and relay info to us about his 20 years of experience. All in all he went above and beyond when I thought all I would get for $40 was a quick answer. thanks so much!!

I hired Bob for a first time DUI in Dupage County. I blew over twice the limit and was facing a potential outcome of having my licence revoked for 12 months. Due to my job situation I could not afford to have this happen. Bob walked me through the process step by step and had me ready for the court date. The state prosecutor was pushing for a conviction, but Bob was able to sway the judges opinion in my favor and I was able to get a minimum sentencing and the ability to drive under supervision. I also want to mention that through out the process he would always make himself available to me. No matter when I called him he almost always answered and if he didn't he would call back within the hour. I would recommend Bob Hanaford to anyone going through this similar situation. He is honest, hard working and thorough.

My 19 year old son got himself into trouble and I did not where to turn, a friend gave me Bob's number. Bob worked endlessly to help my son. He did everything legally possible to get my son's charges reduced. He not only worked hard in court but out of court he was more like a father figure setting my son on the right path. He stuck to his word and charged me the flat fee we agreed, although the case became more complicated than was originally planned. MC Henry county has an outstanding lawyer. If I ever need an attorney he will the first person I call.

Our firm recently retained Robert as a consulting expert for a complicated Workers' Compensation issue and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer. He was responsive at all times and knowledgeable on the law.

This is my personal review of the work provided by Robert Hanaford. I hired Mr. Hanaford for a work related injury compensation claim. I tried to resolve this issue with the workers compensation claims adjuster myself, but they refused to work with me and treated my unfairly. Once Mr. Hanaford was hired and took over everything changed !!! Mr. Hanaford helped me to get my workers compensation claim resolved to my satisfaction and he fought to make sure all my rights to benefits were protected !!! Also Mr. Hanaford was very quick to respond to all question, emails, texts and voicemail's through out the entire claims process. I would definitely hire Mr Hanaford again for any personal injury case, criminal defense case, DUI or DWI case. I also have given verbal word of mouth reference to my family and personal friends. "IF YOU NEED A ATTORNEY WHO WILL ACTUALLY WORK AND FIGHT FOR YOU AND YOUR RIGHTS" ROBERT HANAFORD IS THE ATTORNEY FOR YOU !!!

I was hit by a taxi in downtown Chicago. Taxi's are not required to have to much coverage, but what they do have is also substandard. The ownership of the taxi was also layered. By the time the courts took to my case the taxi companies insurance carrier had declared bankruptcy and was in receivership. Bob did all the investigation necessary to find the owners. And was able to find a way for me to get a settlement. I hope I won't have a situation like this in the future, but if I do, Bob is my go to guy. Robert S
