  Bill Margolin has represented me twice and I can’t imagine anyone else making it such a smooth seamless stress free process the way he did. His decades of experience speak for themselves. This man is my go-to for all legal issues. If he does not cover something, he will refer you to someone just as qualified and helpful as he is. Best lawyer in lake county hands down.

  William handled a felony charge I received in 2019 in DuPage. Looking back, my chances would have been far better off with another lawyer who was more connected in that county. I say this because I've seen it happen with my boyfriend who was charged with a "more" severe felony offense for a second time. That lawyer was able to pull more strings for less money. It was my mistake for not getting a lawyer in DuPage. I would recommend William for Traffic and DUI cases, but not too sure for other criminal cases. Just my experience overall.

  Great attorney! Takes the time to explain everything in detail and how the process works. In my case my ex's boyfriend got an order of protection on me after he and I had words and minimal contact. Only after he said he'd break my jaw, grabbed my 9 year old son, took my daughter out of state, let her ride an ATV unsupervised that she flipped on herself then had her wear long sleeves and pants on a 90 degree day to conceal the bruises from me. In addition he slept in the same bed as her in a small 2 bedroom cottage. I really didn't fight the OP no contact is the only contact. If you've ever been in divorce court you know no one really cares about court orders or the above stuff he did (no criminal law broken) unless you keep paying 150 for motions and 400 per hour to your attorney to get it in front of your judge. His order included his kids. Moving on, I signed my daughter up for softball, brought drinks and crackers to a game for the team. The Ex then shows up with his daughter took pictures of me and his daughter in the same frame and went to the police to say I violated the order. She also stated they had video of me cussing at the little girl, whom I don't know. Though all lies and no video was produced, technically I still violated the order and by the interpretation of the words written into law, I was guilty. If you are at a public event for your family, say a graduation for your son or daughter and a protected party shows up not having any affiliation or reason for being there. If its public property you still have to leave. Good to know. Even though the feeling of getting railroaded was still there, Bill did a wonderful job of explaining how our law works in detail and how he could take care of it. Bill is also very accessible!
