Brad McCann was recommended to me to update my trust and will. I have never met such a wonderful and genuine person! He listens, I mean really listens. He cares about his client and made sure all points have been addressed according the the specifics of my wishes. He caught some things in my previous trust that would have impacted my goal. Extremely competent in not only trust and wills but as a CPA as well. He gave me great guidance as he understood the big picture of what I wanted not only on the legal front but from the emotional aspect as well. This is hugely important to me! After coming to him from a different firm, the difference is like night and day. I feel completely confident that all of my final wishes are in perfect order. I have not only found an outstanding attorney but a friend that I can talk to about anything. I highly recommend Brad, I only wish there was a sixth star.

My wife and I sincerely appreciate the time and informative sessions which we recently had with Brad. He very patiently explained all the details of our Trust and answered our many questions regarding our Estate Planning. We would most certainly recommend Brad McCann and the office of Spesia & Taylor.
You won’t find a more knowledgeable and caring attorney than Brad McCann. I could list multiple examples but that truly says it all.

The decision to finally have the paperwork prepared for our Living Trust, Medical Power of Attorneys and Wills was not exactly one we were excited to make. I do not think many want to deal with their own mortality. I can tell you we made an excellent choice in choosing Bradley McCann from Spesia & Taylor to handle the paperwork for my husband and I. Not only the professionalism, but the ease he gave us during this difficult decision. My husband asks a lot of questions and the Attorney and his Staff always treated us with the upmost respect. I would highly recommend them. They made it very easy to put our property into trust.

Brad McCann and his team are awesome! He has helped us through Estate, tax, and real estate dealings when my father in law passed and most recently with the sale and purchase of our old and new homes. Through some very trying issues he stayed on top of things and did his absolute best to make sure our timelines were met and all details handled. We will continue to use Brad for future needs of this nature and would highly recommend him to anyone needing services he provides.

If you are looking for a firm that is responsive, knowledgeable and goes out of their way to be sure you are taken care of I would highly recommend Spesia & Taylor. My attorney is Brad McCann and I have to say I've had nothing short of excellent service encompassing multiple dealings with my business and personal needs. He always makes himself available for questions and is very helpful with explaining my options. From purchasing my business, purchasing property, setting up my Sons business and even tax related issues, Brad is my go to person for advice and has treated me as a friend. It has been a number of years working with him and I can say there will be many more.

Brad is a very knowledgeable and thorough attorney. He structured our estate plans and represented us for the purchase of property. Brad is flexible with his time and schedule. He scheduled appointments to meet at our home when it was not practical to visit his office. We plan to use him for future services.

My husband and I highly recommend Bradley McCann. He created our will and estate plan. He helped us understand the process, answered all our questions, and created a will and estate plan to meet our needs. He also can do tax planning and corporate planning.

Brad McCann is an attorney who cares about his clients. He is very detailed with his work and always makes time to meet with us when requested.
He takes his time to explain everything to us, we never feel rushed. I recommend him to anyone.

Brad McCann was our lawyer during the selling of our home and the purchase of our new home. He could not have made things any easier for us. Office visits were short and to the point but never rushed, phone calls were handled in a prompt manner, and he was always re-assuring. We had a great experience and wouldn't hesitate to use him or this firm if needed in the future. Thank you.

We have worked with Brad McCann over the past few years to set up wills and trust agreements as well LLC's. He is thorough and takes the time to understand just what the customer needs and wants. He is also very good at explaining alternative approaches to estate issues and the ramifications of each.
Bottom line this leads to a better final outcome for us and for the future generations that will inherit these entities. Brad keeps us up top date on any changes tax law wise that may affect our legal entities. Bottom line, we couldn't ask for a better person to handle our affairs. He has both the legal and accounting (tax) background to make it all work!

Every time I visit Spesia & Taylor, it is a pleasant experience. The staff is very helpful with directions, etc. Brad McCann is my tax accountant/estate lawyer for 20 years. I followed Brad from his Chicago law firm to Joliet so I could continue with his excellent services. Brad explains complicated matters so I can understand and he is meticulous in the preparation of all my tax forms. I appreciate the great service and his personal attention. Always answers emails and phone calls. Brad makes it seem as you are his most important client.

We started working with Brad at a prior firm and followed him to Spesia & Taylor. He has always been professional and guided us well for estate planning and tax preparation. We've referred several family members and friends to the firm and Brad over the years.

Being designated Executor of an estate can be a daunting task if your not experienced, to say the least. Fortunately for me, after researching many local firms looking for someone to help me settle my late Mother's estate I chose Spesia & Taylor. Their firms reputation and proven dedication to their clients was what I believed and still believe is what makes them stand head and shoulders over the other firms that I researched. My initial meeting with Brad McCann was my first confirmation that I had made a wise decision and that my four siblings would approve my choice.
Brad took the time to ask me about some of my Mother's life and times, her hobbies, travels, grandkids and other life experiences which was comforting for me to share. Brad asked about my siblings, our relationships with each other, he shared stories on how estates and things of this nature can cause undue stress and problems when going through the probate process.
Once the paperwork had been submitted and the official probate was initiated, Brad and his staff kept me up to date through all phases of estates probate, including the final closing on the sale of my Mother's home. During that entire time they were always available to my siblings to answer questions I could not provide. Through all of it, I always felt at ease knowing that things were being done with our best interest in mind and never thought twice about my initial decision to choose Spesia & Taylor to handle our needs. Having Brad McCann was an added bonus, I truly respect all of his hardwork and dedication for making this very emotional time so much more easier than I ever expected. Thank you Brad...thank you Spesia & Taylor.

After driving by this beautiful law office for many years and receiving a referral from a friend/coworker regarding legal guardianship/estate planning for my elderly mother who was recently diagnosed with dementia, I scheduled a 730 am consultation with Mr. Bradley S. McCann on June 11, 2019. I was prompt and he was hurried. I had hoped this meeting would go well, but I could clearly see this attorney either has too heavy of a caseload, heavy personal life caseload, or he’s really unprofessional. Whatever the case, as of today, July 10, 2019 I still have not received contact. It was wrong to have me share my personal and sensitive concerns regarding my elderly mother and what I felt was her unique situation and not follow through with the email/call I was told I would receive the following day regarding fees. I’m not sure if the partners or other attorney’s in this building operate on this level of unprofessionalism and disrespect, but this is my message to Mr. McCann and those that share his integrity and work ethic. If you have race issues particularly with African Americans in this case, elderly, or a misjudgment of one’s financial status, maybe you should consider another career choice because this behavior is not only UNWARRENTED, it is UNACCEPTABLE. I pray you and your family never receive the disrespect you have shown me towards mine. I do not recommend this firm or this attorney.

I used the services of Bradley McCann as a benefit of my Hyatt Legal Program at work to take care of my mother in law's estate. Our attorney seemed great at first and was willing to meet us on a weekend and have us great information. He said he would take care of something that Monday for us while the of the heirs was in town so we wouldn't have to mail forms to him and then we didn't hear back from him for about 2 weeks. He consistently responded late, missed things that I had to correct him on (I'm not an attorney), tried to refuse to do a closing on a Friday because he "doesn't do that" even though he didn't have everything ready the day the closing was initially set for anyway. Then without asking us he decided that we should have to pick up a check for the proceeds of the home sale (we weren't able to attend the closing) rather than doing a wire transfer because HE doesn't like paying transfer fees even though it's a trip hour round trip for us to get to him to pick the check up. Then he charged us a fee for his services even though he told me initially that the Hyatt plan would cover it. After I emailed him to complain about these things he said everything went smoothly and he has no idea what I'm talking about. We had complaints from both realtors, the buyers attorney and each of the heirs who had to deal with him. I don't know about the other legal services provided, but absolutely do not come here for estate services. I would rather have paid someone than get the "free" services from this insurance that I had to pay for anyway. I have hired excellent attorneys from this insurance before and will be reporting this incident to them as well.
