My family was in urgent need of a criminal defense lawyer. Mr. Garfinkel was referred by a friend and hiring him was the best decision we made. The court process was long and stressful, however Mr. Garfinkel was very friendly, caring, and answered all of our questions. His experience, knowledge, and determination to resolve the case were beyond impressive. He was able to negotiate with the prosecutors a deal that reduced original felony charge to a petty offense with probation. My family will be forever grateful to Mr. Garfinkel!

Hal helped my husband do no jail time, considering his case. Hal treated us if we was family and was honest. Very professional and reasonable priced.

Very honest lawyer. Didn’t try to bamboozle me for money like most attorneys in our city. Was a pretty straight shot guy and told me exactly what he thought was to be expected in my case.

Mr. Hal Garfinkel was suggested to my family after I got charged for a felon with a gun charge. My public defender told me to plea for 6 years. Come to find Mr. Garfinkel and he told my family we should fight. We took the case all the way to trial and won.

Hal Garfinkel is the best attorney in the Chicago area hands down. I have made many mistakes in my lifetime and have hired many lawyers, but none that could ever compare to Hal. He is so knowledgeable and detail-orientated that often times I forget I am his client and watch in amazement at his ability to articulate facts and arguments against the prosecution in the courtroom. Some lawyers are only in it for the money, but you can tell Hal treats the law as his life passion. I've hired other lawyers and later regretted it and felt like it was a total waste of money but Hal's services are worth every dollar and more. I would never waste my time or hard-earned money on another lawyer ever again. I don't want to go into great detail about my life and my many mistakes but this man truly saved my life and gave me another opportunity to get my life in order and for that I am forever grateful. Words can't even express how thankful I am. Hal, you are the absolute best.

My boyfriend got arrested and hit with 3 felonies. I hired Garfinkle to represent him. The case got beat at 26 and California. Hal is beyond great. Da bomb.

2 us postal agents showed up at my door about a package of drugs saying they was mine. I totally freaked out. My girl had done a lot of research on federal lawyers and found Mr. Garfinkel. Im not gonna lie. Hal knows how to charge fees but in the end I got my life back and my family. Mr. Garfinkel is a great federal lawyer. !!!!!!!

Consulted with Mr. Garfinkel one day before trial in the evening and with the same sense of urgency we had, he took our case with the upmost of professionalism and priority. He went on and showed it in court. He got our case dismissed like he said he would. He is definitely our family new go to lawyer from now on!

The State took my case for a forgery and bad credit cards. I was looking at a ton of time. I have been knowing Hal for a couple years now and my brothers and family all use him. He's legit awesome!!

I honestly found Hal's name on the internet after I found myself in a tough spot. Without getting into the details I was in a ton of trouble. I met Hal at his office and I hired him on the spot. I trusted my instincts and things worked out If you find yourself needing to hire a criminal defense lawyer, Im telling you, he's the lawyer you want in your corner.

I was given Mr. Garfinkel's name by a family friend. I had a very difficult Financial fraud case and Mr. Garfinkel did a fantastic job. If you must to call a federal criminal lawyer, call Hal.

Agents from the Government came to my business with an arrest warrant saying I did bad things. They arrest me for nothing. Mr. Garfinkel told me he would defend me. He did. No Fraud, nothing. I am free now becauze of him. The Best!!!!!!

I was given Hal's name from a co worker who got into a legal jam a couple years ago. I called Hal and we clicked right away. Honestly, he is not the cheapest lawyer around but if you need results he's your guy. Trust me. Call him.

Hal's the best. I got to know Hal over a year ago to help with several legal issues my nephew was facing (traffic and criminal). Hal jumped right in, tackled the case, went above and beyond and led the successful resolution of my nephew's various issues. Thanks to Hal he now has a fresh start. I 100% recommend Hal to anyone facing a legal issue in the Chicagoland area.

The Feds picked up my drug case and turned it into a Conspiracy. My family has been using attorney Garfinkel for a long time now. He got my case thrown out on a motion. Solid attorney. If you got picked up on a federal drug case, check him out.

He's an amazing lawyer knows alot of judges prosecutor's and works hard to win or get you best sentencing

This guy posts fake reviews on google.
Google should verify and take this guys fake reviews down.

hal was my mom's attorney a long time ago he helped her avoid jail time and did the same for me as well i appreciate the fact that i can still see my lil girl and be in her life instead of a jail cell he was very honest and upfront with me and my family about what would happen to me he got the job done plain and simple I'd call him again if i had to i hope i never have to lol

This guy means business. A true man of his word. I was fighting a uuw With a attempt to distribute marijuana. He helped me to walk away with no jail time. No probation. No problems. I would strongly recommend Hal to anyone in a legal bind.

Attorney Garfinkel did an absolutely amazing job with our case. He didn't settle for the win, but instead he went the extra mile to ensure that my husband's rights and future were preserved. My family and I am so appreciative to him for the effort and consideration he put into our case. Highly recommended.

Mr. Garfinkel defended me for a felony theft that I was totally innocent. He was AMAZING in the court. He beat up the store cop and the detective and the case got thrown out and the judge told me I beat the case. Hal was awesome. Hal thank you soo much.

Mr. Garfinkel represented me when I was under investigation for 2 years by the DEA. In the end, I was not charged. Cannot thank you enough Hal. Great lawyer!!!!

Hal was recommended to my father a couple years ago after he got into with chicago police. Now I needed him for my fiance who got busted with drugs and guns. Hal was upfront and honest. Did a fantastic job and my fiance is home with me. Thanks Hal. If you need a dependable criminal lawyer, Hal's your guy,

Hands down Hal is the guy that you want on your side! I can only speak for myself but he has never let me down and always been there at a moments notice. Wouldn’t trust anyone else with my legal matters and it’s going to be a sad day when he retires!

Agents came to my house wanting to speak with my son about child pornography. They had a warrant and searched all our computers and found a couple pictures that for sure my son did not know was there. He was arrested and charged with cp. Mr. Garfinkel was recommended to our family and he was incredible. The warrants and pictures were all thrown out on technical grounds but who cares. My son is not in Jail anymore and has his life back. Let me be clear about something. My son didn't know about the pictures but Mr. Garfinkel saved his life and ours.

charges a lot, and show up to courts late.

I got into some trouble and was super stressed out about it, there were plenty of sleepless night's. I just thought i would never be able to come out of it. I hired Hal Garfinkel to represent me, he not only represented me, he held my hand through it all. It was a troubling time for me and Hal reassured me that it would be ok. I am blessed I had him on my side. I will recommend him to anyone because i know they will receive an intelligent, an amazing and genuinely caring attorney overall.

Attorney Hal M. Garfinkel literally helped me out beyond my dreams. A fraud case that never should have happened. But Hal took care of it. No felony conviction and it will be sealed and expunged!!

My boyz been using Garfinkel for a long while. Dependable name in the hood. Love you Hal!!!!!

Garfinkel got me out of a jam with a pistol and rock. Tremendous criminal lawyer. Check him out.

Hal came highly recommended. Great drug lawyer. Took care of my problem at 26/Cal with a motion and all the drugs were thrown out. If you are in a jam call him.

Mr. Garfinkel came highly recommended as a competent federal criminal lawyer. I got a call from federal agents requesting that I meet with them at their offices in Tinley Park to discuss my business. The agents told me I was a target. I called Mr.Garfinkel and we met at his office in the loop that night! He was not cheap but he resolved the issue with the U.S. Attorneys office. Worth every freakin dime.

Great criminal defense attorney. Professional, responsive. Without getting into the details which were ugly Hal took care of Me. I was looking @ serious time for something really stupid. Cannot say enough good things about him!!!

Lawyer Harold Garfinkel is the best criminal lawyer in Chicago. We had a very serious legal issue in our family. Without getting into all the facts, will just say it dealt with guns and drugs that wasn't even ours. Garfinkel dealt with it and everything was dropped by the State. For real he is legit.

I just finished using Federal criminal lawyer Harold Garfinkel for a Federal Fraud case in Chicago. No Joke, the best. He's fair, smart, knows the players downtown and will answer your phone calls. Got his name from a buddy.

My boyfriend was stopped by CPD officers driving a car that wasnt even his. He got pulled out without even a warrant!! They found a 9mm which he didnt know was in the trunk and he got a felony UUW charge. I got in touch with Hal Garfinkel and he is not a plea lawyer. Took it to trial and won. If you got a felony gun case call Garfinkel.

Attorney Harold Garfinkel fought an aggravated UUW for me, where I was facing a one to three year sentence if found guilty. Mr. garfinkel is so phenomenal at what he does that he worked out a one time gun probation deal for my case, so therefore once I've completed probation all charges including mugshots and everything related to the case will be sealed off my record. To sum things up, if you're in the chicago land area and trouble happens to find you well then Harold Garkinkel is the guy you want representing you trust me, and by the way he also is a very nice man !

Mr. Garfinkel came highly recommended from a lawyer friend of mine in downtown Chicago. Several FBI agents arrived at my home unannounced wanting to speak with me about an investigation focused on my business. I was told I was a target at the U.S. Attorney's office in Chicago. I contacted Mr. Garfinkel and we met at his downtown office the following day. To make a long story short, Hal contacted the assistant u.s. attorney handling the case. We met at their offices and thankfully a year later the investigation was dropped and I am no longer a target. If you have a serious federal criminal problem, give Mr. Garfinkel a call. It was worth the retainer. I can sleep at night! Thank you, Hal.

Attorney Harold Garfinkel got my son out of a jam with drugs and guns that wasn't even his. The States Attorney didn't want to even hear what we had to say. Come to find out the state offered my son 10 years for somethin he didn't even do. I hired Hal and we took the case to trial and he won for us. NOT GUILTY. Thank you, Hal for giving me my son back and giving him freedom.

Garfinkel has been our family criminal lawyer for years. Hands down outstanding. My brother got caught with an ounce of Heroin in his ride. Garfinkel took the case at 26/cal and got the dope tossed out on a Motion. No joke hes the real deal.

My friend knows Mr. Garfinkel and told me he was very good federal criminal lawyer in Chicago. I had FBI and Homeland agents beating down my door with a warrant. They found drugs and guns. I know that I didnt know anything about these bad things. I hired Mr. Hal and he got my case thrown out in FEDERAL COURT. Thank you!!! Mr. Hal. For sure the best lawyer to hire if you have a Federal criminal case
