Let's face it bankruptcy isn't a pretty thing to go through. Robert was the fourth lawyer that we saw. The ones before him made us feel stupid, incappable or like low-lifes. Robert, on the otherhand, treated us with repect and left us with our DIGNITY. I left the other's offices in tears, feeling really badly. With Robert I actually did shed a tear, but it was because I was so thankful for his kindness, warmth, knowledge and wit. Who would think one could sit in your lawyers office and share a laugh and make a horrible situation bearable?! I appreciate what Robert did for us so much. I would recommend him to absolutely anybody and I wish we could use him for all our lawyer needs. Robert made the whole process easy. He let us know exactly what to expect and had us prepared. We went in and met our lawyer and in the end we had a new friend!

Mr. Honig helped me to declare bankruptcy four years ago and it really changed my life. He was recommended to me by another friend whom he helped successfully and I recommended a work colleague who also had a great experience. It was painless (as painless as bkrptcy can be!), clear and everything he promised to make happen did happen. As a side note, I just called him four years later to get a copy of the documentation of the final discharge papers. He answered the phone himself, spoke to me like a friend and offered to email them to me right then and there. That's the kind of personal attention that I think sets him apart. Also, from my research he was less expensive than comparable attorneys! Very glad to be able to recommend him.

Robert was wonderful to work with and continues to offer support years after my engagement with him ended. Would highly recommend him.

I consulted with Robert Honig on April 5, 2021 regarding problems I've had with a house built in Lombard in 1949 that I purchased nearly two years ago. Honig was very sympathetic about the more than $6,000 I would have to spend to get my electrical up to code. But he advised me that it could cost $3,000 to $4,000 to hire a litigator to recoup some of the costs from my home inspection company, Insight Property Services.

Robert Honig is honest, kind, accurate, highly effective. He took a hard, emotional, challenging situation and made it so much easier to go thru, while educating me at the same time. I am very grateful for his expertise and highly recommend him to anyone seeking consul for bankruptcy.

A few years ago, I had a business that was forced into closure after 15 successful years. Although incorporated, my landlord had a personal guarantee and was ruthless in his pursuit and built up their damage claims. Unfortunately, this required me to take a path I did not want to go down, but who could I trust? Robert Honig was referred to me and I am very happy I listened. Both he and his office manager, Paula, made the experience as painless as possible; providing me the guidance and legal representation my special needs required. Their work is nothing but top quality and the cost quite reasonable. If you are looking for counsel in his areas of expertise- you can feel very safe with this firm.

This guy here is by far ,the best lawyer that I have ever used. PERIOD!!! He did what every lawyer should ,but often don't do. He was upfront with me .He is a very nice guy and very approachable. He is not cocky and uninterested in your case after the check clears. Mr.Honig ,gave me a price for his services and that was the actual price. (No really it was). He was great in every category. I have nothing but great things to say about him. His legal aid was just as nice and very knowledgeable .She was on the ball and if you needed something related to your case ,she made sure you received it ,even if she had to ask Mr.Honig or have him call you back.Yes ,they call you back.(I know) .I even threw out a couple of unrelated questions and he actually pulled out a law book ,to make sure that law ,was still the way he explained it to me. He has your back. He realizes he is working for you . Mr. Honig and his staff provided clear and concise excellent customer service. I highly recommend Mr.Honig's law firm . I don't think youll find a better ,all around firm anywhere.
