Lawler & Lawler - Benton (IL)

sandie hillman I of course was devestated to learn I had mesothelioma….i saw their commercials on the television and had zero idea what it was all about. I just pitied whomever needed to use them for this reason…. Little did I know lurking in my body was this same disease … of course no idea that I had ever been exposed to something so deadly. So when this came up I and family researched pretty hard all of the “ meso” attorneys out there. No they are not all created equal. Some states allow more liberal uses of the definition of exposure to asbestos. Some states you have to prove a constant and steady exposure to asbestos… it’s difficult when you don’t have a clue where it came from to begin with… but with the right questions you can start to wake up some memories that you had so many years ago…. With me I was going back like 56 years ago so they are very diligent in their taking info down and even asking more of the right questions. Greg was incredibly patient as we dug through my daughter’s father’s info….. my family’s info … they did as they said they would and got things done pretty quickly. I got my first check less than 90 days from the day I retained them and very seriously the cash release check started almost a year from when we got the first check… and then they started rolling in. They said they would really work on this case as they do with all their cases knowing time is not necessarily our friend. They truly have…. I know we didn’t expect for me to actually live long enough to be able to take advantage of these $$ coming in…But it has been three years ago now since I was diagnosed . Yes the checks are slower but even now they are still coming in. They didn’t just go after “ the low hanging fruit” … they went successfully after the harder ones also. I recommend them highly. I am a person of such little patience and they have all been very kind to me. Greg has done a wonderful job of keeping my feet planted and not losing it in the midst of all this craziness of meso. I hate that we have the need for such incredibly knowledgeable law firms where this cancer is concerned but thank goodness we do! I am very glad I chose GORI LAW FIRM. I forgot to mention after we decided on a firm they had one of their partners on Monday at my home in a small EAST TEXAS town. . We decided Sat afternoon late. If one happens to see this review and are trying to make a decisions n I hope this helps you in decision making.

Pam Earnhart Ben handled my divorce 5 years ago and then helped me again last year. He was very professional and prompt. I would definitely contact him if I needed something again and referred a friend to him as well.

Edward Clinton Great lawyers and great people.

brian tarpo I hired this firm and had Anthony as a lawyer. I was stopped for speeding and didn’t realize my drivers license had expired. I hired them mainly because I was worried about my drivers license being expired. To make a long story short, I only had to pay $250 so I was pleased with the outcome. I do wish the communication would have been better. I had to move my court date twice because of medical issues. I called the firm and explained that to them and they said they would take care of it but no one ever got back to me and when I called them again they said it had been taken care of. I just wish they would’ve called me and let me know It was taken care of instead of having to worry about not showing up in court And getting in more trouble.

Robert Terry He is very forward and helpful, no games

Madeline Amaro I can’t speak highly enough about Cary Dohman and the team at Dohman Law. When I found myself in an incredibly difficult situation—a first-time DUI and no job to fall back on—Cary didn’t just take on my case, he took the time to truly understand me. As a single mother, I was overwhelmed and scared. But from day one, Cary and his team treated me with kindness, respect, and zero judgment. They showed incredible flexibility with payments, something I never expected and am deeply grateful for. Cary was always present in court, fighting for me like I mattered—not just as a client, but as a person who made a mistake and deserved another chance. Their communication is phenomenal. I had direct access to Cary via text, and every question I asked was answered promptly and compassionately. I’ve never felt more supported during such a vulnerable time. I truly couldnt imagine trusting anyone else with my case. Thank you, Cary Dohman and Dohman Law—you gave me hope and dignity when I needed it most.

Timothy Kelly I am a Realtor in the Western Suburbs and I recommend Joel to my buyers and sellers who dont already have an attorney. I’ve been working with Joel for more than 10 years. He is very knowledgeable about real estate law, and explains matters extremely well to my clients. Without a doubt, I trust him to handle a real estate transaction… and so should you.

Savannah Van Vuren Grant was an exceptional attorney who handled my case with professionalism and efficiency. He navigated the process seamlessly, ensuring a smooth and successful settlement. His proficiency and straightforward approach made the experience stress-free. Highly recommend his services!
