The law office of Fawell & Fawell in Wheaton, Illinois, is a premier family law firm that caters to clients who have strenuous issues they need resolved with efficiency, compassion and professionalism. Our managing partner, Alex Fawell, has under a decade of experience and has had exposure working for a variety of governmental legal organizations. We handle myriad cases, including:

  • Divorce: Contested/uncontested divorce, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, high asset divorce, property division, LGBTQ+ divorce and post-divorce modifications and enforcement.

Mr. Fawell is a graduate of the University of Illinois Chicago School of Law, and since entering practice in 2015, has only valiantly fought to get his clients the results they deserve to move on and think about a better future. He has worked as a law clerk in multiple organizations much before graduating law school, and this experience helps him understand how the Illinois judicial system works and how to prepare accordingly.

While I was not desiring divorce, my wife chose this option. Terry was very understanding, guiding me with great advice and ensuring I was fully aware of my rights and reasonable actions in relation to my wife?s actions. Her fees were reasonable and I didn?t feel like I was being soaked with attorney fees. I would recommend Terry to anyone needing family law assistance.

There are many reasons for a divorce, ours was very different than others. I had my free 30 minute councel with a couple male attorneys that insisted I go with a male, and made me feel like I was going into war. I then spoke with Terry Fawell, she truly made me feel very comfortable and our 30 minutes went way longer as I had alot of questions related to what I was told by the other potential attorneys; she had no problem with time and made sure I knew ahead of time what to expect. Terry and her support kept me informed thru the proceedings and the end result was as I expected.

Like many, my post-divorce world is messy, earnestly trying to manage parenting time, child support, alimony etc., while dealing with a contentious ex spouse. Terry Fawell's experience, professionalism and guidance was an instrumental in ensuring fairness and accountability. I could not have done it without her.

Terry and her team were a big help to me. They answered my questions in a timely manner and always got back to me. Highly recommend them. Hope I don't need their services again but if i do i won't hesitate to give them a call.

Overall, my experience with Alex Fawell was terrible for many reasons. Alex Fawell?s ability to communicate is lacking and awful. For example, he did not even notify me of the filing of my civil complaint or in which date to appear. Fundamental of being an attorney and representing someone effectively would be to tell your client what date to appear instead of having to look up on the court website. Also interesting to note, he did not return emails or calls in a timely manner and the emails go to junk mail. Alex Fawell continually ran-up fees by flipflopping on an issue regarding my house. Long story short, he changed his mind three times on whether a quit claim deed was needed. He should have known better and if he?s experienced as he states, he would not have changed his mind so frequently. Alex Fawell did not deliver on several requested docs as promised. I requested on four different occasions both verbal and email to complete these docs, in which he promised to do so but failed. Also, oddly enough In conclusion, if you are seeking absolute frustration and bad communication, then hire Alex Fawell.
