When I contacted CTA I was hopeless. My husband had been arrested for a crime and didn’t have a background. The bond was so astronomical that it was heartbreaking. After speaking with David he started to give me hope. We were assigned to Stephanie on the case and she was extremely thorough, pleading to talk to, and she listened. She listened to what we were praying for and what we wanted to happen. She let us know how she would fight to ensure that we would get the best outcome possible and that is actually what happened. The Judge did something that he had never done before and we were satisfied. I highly recommend them when you are faced with hopelessness.

Real people who help real problems. Everyone at this firm is professional and genuine. Getting a consultation is easy and simple, and communication is top tier. From the moment I spoke with David Smith, I had full faith and confidence in his legal experts and advice. He provided me with an amazing Attorney, Stephanie Buck. Ms. Buck is incredibly knowledgeable and patient when it came to my questions and understandings of the legal process/justice system. Nicole Rojas, her paralegal is also incredibly helpful. She always helped me with questions regarding court orders for movement and the requirements I'd need. I am unbelievably grateful with the outcome. There is no better team than the one at, "Chicago Trusted Attorneys".

The sincere care and compassion shown during this difficult period is an understatement to how amazing this firm and attorney handled my fianc?s case. From the beginning David showed compassion to our family and readiness to jump in and take over the case for Felony Unlawful Use of a Weapon. Stephanie always showed confidence and patience in explaining every detail during the duration of this legal battle. I even took the time to review her experience and i was blown away and knew she was the one for the job. Many of days we were worried but she never showed us any reason to doubt the process! Between being affordable and understanding that outside of the courtroom life was still happening we were shown so much support from the entire team! Literally a year! A year of non stop fighting. As of 9/4/24 the case was dismissed and the relief is unexplainable! Thank you to the entire Chicago Trusted Attorney team for being a voice of justice and Stephanie for being available and transparent the entire process! I can only give 5 stars but I would love to give 10! Thank you all for helping to give him the freedom we prayed for!

Words cannot express my appreciation for every single person at this practice. From the first phone call I connected with Stephanie, I immediately felt a sense of relief that I was in the best hands possible. There was constant communication from all members of the staff; from phone calls and emails with Nicole, introductory contact with David, and consistent interactions between Stephanie and I. I am so blessed to have had Stephanie as my lawyer, and most importantly, now my dear friend. Her knowledge and presence in the court room is truly remarkable and respected. I never imagined that I could put my faith and future in someone else's hands, but once I did Stephanie did NOT let me down. Her heart is so full, and her passion for her work/clients is so genuine. She listened to me and took the time to understand my story as a whole, not just based off my case. Her sympathy and compassion was pure, and never judged me for the mistake I made to put myself in this position. That was extremely important for me and allowed me to truly trust her and confidently know I wasn't just another case in her career. I will forever cherish her importance in my life, and have endless love and respect for such a powerful woman. This firm will always have a special place in my heart, and there's no doubt I would recommend it to anybody. There's so dollar value that would justify the outcome on my future, and Chicago Trusted Attorneys are worth it. The name of the firm speaks for itself. Stephanie, you are a Trusted attorney and now my dear friend. Thank you all, you're the absolute best!
