Haid and Teich, LLP - Chicago, IL

please read the entire review women divorce and family law group represented me on my case about my child , Jamie Teich and his associate suzette, at the beginning of the case Jamie Teich did good job by helping bringing my child back to me after her mother took her out of state at that time , around November of 2016 we did have hearing for the case , how ever Jamie had family issue he had to deal with , so he file petition to continue the case due to his matter , motion was granted by judge , how ever I was billed for preparing the petition and attorney appearance in court this firm can hold you by the throat because its such sensitive case about your loved child , there fees are dishonest high , as they can be late on court timing and if you call them on the phone to ask if some one is coming they will bill you for phone call time one minute for $ 65 dollars that happened with associate suzette person when she was late once during the case we had pre trial , I prepared almost 42 pages of supporting documents and emailed them to suzette to attach as an exhibits to our response she advised that she will be out of office when she comes back she will attach documents so judge can see them , when we went before judge for pre trial they never represented those documents to the judge as she promised , which my case started to be week ( Jamie and suzette lie to me ) , during the case Jamie was pressuring me to settle my case with for less , I use to call him at his office for week to consult and not return my call neither him or suzette, it happened several times , when we meet at court or talk he can simply lie and say I was out of town , Jamie is not an honest attorney , I don't care about this video on there website ( do not fall for it ) they would tell you things like Jamie knows this judge and judge likes him ( its lie )Jamie is the worst layer attorney I ever seen , when we meet at court he use to aske me to wait in hall , so I wouldn't come inside the court room , I never listened but he would underestimated people , to the point at one time he was laughing at me with the appose council because I made comment, not only that he liked the apposed attorney representing my child mom so he offered her job right front of me , going forward with the case he was pushing me to settle the case for fifty fifty with my ex , I started not trust him or his firm ,all he cares about is the money and he can sell you to the other party soo easy . he has soo many cases he represent that he cannot remember the details of you case , the case continued for almost 38 months , during this time I paid ton of money, oh I almost forgot , one time I made an appointment to meet with Jamie he forgot to list my name at security desk when they use to have there office at the Willis tower , by the time the security called them and let me in Jamie said I only can meet with you for 15 min , where I drove an hour to see him , not only that they charge me for entire appointment time which I didn't have , again I use to ask for credit but they never apply , I couldn't continue the case with this law firm as I was loosing against my ex , I hired new law firm by attorney Mathew arnox as soon I met with them they were able to bring all of my wishes on the case back , by the time the case was done new attorney did what Jamie couldn't do ,where Jamie use to tell me that's it will be 50/50 further I found out from appose attorney that she had deal with Jamie Teich for 50/50 without my authorization he was making deal behind my back with appose attorney , and finally do not trust this firm for suzette person I think she can be better attorney some else where she's more honest than Teich ( but she covers for him , she works for him )

I can't say enough good things about Jamie Teich, Madelyn King and the Womens Famiy Law group. They saw me, my two sons and their step mother through some very difficult litigation with the boys' (emotionally abusive, wealthy and very well represented) birth mother. It was ultimately their efforts that led to an over turning by the court, based on a very thorough 604B Evaluation, of an earlier "recommendation" by the thoroughly corrupt and negligent court appointed "Child's Attorney," allowing my eldest son to move in with me, and attend the academically superior high school of his choice. Sadly, unlike Jamie and the team, that attorney, supposedly the advocate for my sons (who were both asking only for more time, 50/50, with Dad) had spent all of 15 minutes, twice, with them... vs many (billable) hours engaged with opposing counsel (3x the engagement with mine). Haid & Teich heard me out, boiled it down to the key legal issues and were MORE than patient & fair with my fees and billing arrangements. Their Group name may be "Womens Family Law" but I would wholeheartedly recommend them for any Dad struggling to maintain their parental role and rights, and/or advocate for their kids, given the legal issues of today's frankly (and possibly fairly) Mom-canted Divorce Laws and legal system.
