Kraft, Wood & Kelly LLC - Bloomington (IL)

5 /5 Shane: Mike Fenger is an exceptional attorney! He was prepared, invested, and quick on his feet in the courtroom. He was very helpful at guiding me while tensions were high and was able to help me understand what to expect as the case progressed. Overall, I went from hardly any time (thanks to Virginia coomonwealth) with my kids, to a 50/50 joint situation, and Im thrilled! I will definitely be using Mike in the future should I need representation again, and I would highly recommend him to any good father fighting for time with his children.

1 /5 Reviews: I had Katharine Gonzalez to help me with my child custody case. She was awful literally seemed like she was representing the opposing client. On the day of court where we either went to trial or signed an agreed order she started cussing at me in front of my mother to sign the order. I even have emails from her where she was cussing at me to sign this order. Totally unethical and I should’ve filed a malpractice lawsuit. I’ll see if that’s too late still. She allowed opposing council to delay and delay and delay. I hardly saw my child for over a year and then I got stuck with this lopsided totally fraudulent order. Still in court to get it fixed. I’d stay away from Katharine Gonzalez.

5 /5 Melissa Sullivan: Michael Fenger and his staff got my divorce finalized in 8 months verses my previous attorney who sucked money out of me for over 3 years and then fired me for her own faults! I will highly recommend Michael & his firm to anyone that is looking for legal console. He protected my children and my own best interests and I couldnt have asked for a better attorney!

5 /5 Amy Nehmelman: Michael Fenger is an excellent attorney and had my best interest all along. I would highly recommend him.

1 /5 Vernon VanWaters: I have a lot to say that is negative about this firm. First, the retainer that is demanded is so outrageously high that it is absolutely ridiculous. I was originally quoted 15k. Then, after stating that I only had a specific amount, they found their one and only Mike Fenger to take my case. This is where the real joke began. At first, this firm appears professional, but dont let that deceive you. I would receive emails from Mr Fenger and the firm that would only cover them after making mistakes. They would call me on the phone and chew me out. I did not understand what I was doing and kindly told them. They did not take the time to explain but rather took the time to tell me that they reacted the way they did because they were just really busy. I would tell them what I wanted to happen in my case, which is completely normal. However, I would get no response as to what i asked to get done, nor did I get what I asked for. The conversations that I would have with Mr Fenger in person would always have a different outcome either in court or through email. He would show up to court, looking like he had just rolled out of bed. His presentation in court represented the same. It was a joke. He acted like he did so much for me, but in reality, it was nothing he did but rather a new judge I received in the case. This can all be proved in the minutes of the case. After nothing was done in my case, I wasted over $8,000. Mr Fenger did nothing but take my money and give a lot of excuses. I told him that I was extremely unhappy and that I was going to leave this review. He was up set and worried about only his livelihood and could care less about my livlihood. He will not fight for you he will merely coward to the opposite party. My children are suffering from this, and this man could care less. I would hear nothing about what was going on in my case except for a day or so before we had to go to court. He never would sit down with me to get a plan to execute in court to win. You will not win with this man as your attorney. He will only act like he is doing things while you will be steam rolled. Then, they will just say that it is only protocol. This is a lie. I have spoken with other attorneys and have found out that this was typical behavior of buy out. These people are only worried about their pocket book and their six-figure life styles. They can care less about how much you and your children are suffering. You can go somewhere else and spend less money and get a lot more.
