Appreciate the great support from Joe and his team. Good communication and follow through. Thank you Susan for your help as well. Continue to recommend them for anyone who needs personal injury help in the Chicago area.

I have known Joseph Klest for over forty years. Joe has always had a strong sense of integrity and an admirable work ethic. He is also generous beyond bounds. When my husband was very ill several years ago, Joe dropped everything and came out to be supportive or our family, helping each of us go through a truly difficult time. Joe has mentored several new and younger attorneys, and he has built up a very successful practice, helping people to deal with some extraordinarily difficult and uncomfortable situations. Joe uses logic and his strong sense of social justice to guide his law practice as well as other areas of his life.
Joseph Klest is an honest, hard-working attorney whom I would recommend to anyone needing a Personal Injury Lawyer.

Joe and Susan are wonderful to work with! They have a lot of experience handling all types of injury and sex abuse cases. I would recommend anyone in the Schaumburg/Chicagoland area work with them!

Mr. Kleist is the most down to earth, kind, and honest lawyer that truly has had my family’s best interest at heart. There’s no hidden fine print, fees, games, or sales tactics that many lawyers use these days. He and his team are also very prompt. I’m so grateful to have found him and HIGHLY recommend his services.

Had a accident and I called regarding my case. They were very helpful and walked me thru the process. Exceptional communication and Knowledge . I highly recommend

I work for an out of state law firm, needed clarification on a state statute in Illinois so I called Klest Law Firm and was transferred to Mr. Klest and was told to go on to Lexus and to quit wasting his time. What a nice guy? NOT!!!! I know this type of attorney, if he treated someone else in the same profession like this how do you think he will treat clients? He didn't know the answer to the question and instead of saying that he got really NASTY!!!!!

Daniel Terleckyj went beyond my expectations. Not only is he a good lawyer but friend as well. Never gave me the run around, always returned calls and emails promptly. You'll be lucky to have him as your lawyer. Thanks again Dan..

Very litte work with attorney dan dunking 7 month period .then after i complained he sent a letter saying he no longer represents me. But agreed 7 months ago so he waited me 7 moths n nothing he's been done sad attorney stay away. Will post up takes

Highly recommend. Joe's expertise combined with his direct and clear communication style helped me through a civil lawsuit for an injury auto accident.

Excellent lawyer. Mr. Klest came highly recommended, but still managed to exceed all expectations. he is an open and honest, no-nonsense lawyer that truly cares about his clients. I would definitely recommend Joseph Klest should you need to consult with a personal injury expert.

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. NEVER RESPONDED BACK TO ME ON MY CASE AND LEFT SEVERAL MESSAGES. WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE. WENT OUT OF MY WAY TO DROP MY DOCUMENTS OFF AND NEVER TOOK THE TIME TO RETURN ONE PHONE CALL

If your looking for someone that will give you the run around and will never return phone calls then Joe Klest is your man!
Joe is one of the most incompetent lawyers I’ve ever had to deal with.
STAY AWAY!!
Look for someone on a street corner. You will be better off.

I was directed to this firm because they are supposedly experts in sexual abuse and assault cases. I was very shaken up and looking for help after being violated by a doctor during an exam. A local sex abuse victims advocate group assured me that what happened was 100% wrong (not that I had a shred of doubt) and urged me to find legal representation.
I emailed the Klest firm in graphic detail. First I got a rejection email stating they wouldn't take my case, but urged me to find someone who would. When I asked why (wondering if there's a specific type of firm I should be reaching out to) I got a call from Mr. Klest who went on to ask me why I didn't tell anyone right after, why I didn't immediately report it, and why I even think I have a case when it's "my word against his". He let out a subtle laugh when I said I've been too humiliated and hadn't even told my husband yet. The one-ended conversation ended with a simple "it's not a case I think I could win" as the bottom line.
Their website talks big about fighting for victims, but leaves out the part where you're out of luck unless you have rock-solid proof to offer.
A very humiliating waste of time.

AVOID KLEST LAW FIRM AT ALL COST!!!!!!
I would advise anyone with a case to stay away from this law firm. Mr Joe Klest has no associates to help him and he tends to waste time and drags on cases. After wasting my time for an entire year he decided to not pursue my case. Like why not tell me that up front. The law firm signed a contract with me and everything. Like it’s pathetic. He has very poor management of his team. I wish I contacted someone else. I am leaving this review to give people an idea of how this guy operates. Go to a lawyer who won’t waste your time and give you the run around. 0 stars!!!! Firm is on BS!!!

overall wasn’t happy with my experience

Auto injury case:
Prompt attention and good communication. They took care of medical bills with an appropriate award for pain and suffering. Good job!

I LOVE THEM!!!! They are best, and did a WONDERFUL job with my case. I will ALWAYS refer them.
