Ian Conner saw my case through the end. He is very professional, fair and honest and kept me updated on all details of the case. While battling for my family in court his humility showed great character which allowed him to be heard. I just would like to say thank you Ian for successfully securing the best interest for my daughter.

Jessica is professional and easy to work with. Her responses to my questions and concerns were helpful, and done in a timely manner. Money well spent to have our child custody and support agreements in writing!

I would like to say that Lisa and her team have been wonderful to work with. The professionalism and attention to detail as well as timely communication all made an incredibly stressful and tough time in my life easier to handle. I always felt she was there in my corner and achieved results to my satisfaction. There were also numerous times other professionals commented on how good a lawyer she was which I agreed with. I would not hesitate to hire her or recommend her to a friend based on her performance and personality in my divorce proceedings.

Daniel, Karen and Melissa are wonderful! The time they took, the professionalism and timely communication made this whole experience with no stress to me. I had been turned down by several lawyers but Dan called me and took his time answering my questions and making sure I understood everything. Living in Florida and having to find someone in DuPage County, this law firm is the one you should go to and trust. Thank You SO much.

Daniel Kollias has been my lawyer since my divorce in 2008 and my friend (full disclosure here) since junior high. Dan has been nothing but professional in all of my legal proceedings and a wealth of information. One of the main things I really appreciate about Dan is that he is a straight shooter and does not sugarcoat anything which for me is important. I do not want a 'yes' man. Dan is the first to tell you that you are the client and he will act on your behalf to your wishes but he is also proficient at giving you your options and explaining what the consequences or benefits may be to a particular course of action. I appreciate that in him because I would rather know all the scenarios than be surprised or uninformed. He is intelligent and intuitive and fully explains his intentions in regards to why he is filing a particular motion or pursuing a particular avenue on your behalf. Dan has also been there with me through any subsequent proceedings such as having to return to court to obtain funds owed by my ex husband outside of child support and any child modification issues that arose. Dan is excellent at communication and quick to respond to any questions. Dan has even provided valuable assistance to my husband as well with questions he has had regarding child modification issues for his own children after my husband's original lawyer retired. Dan's staff is also very professional and reliable which helps communication and documentation go very smoothly. Determining which lawyer is best for you to represent you in a divorce is a stressful and important decision especially when you are in the emotional tidal wave of dissolving a marriage and possibly a family. My friendship with Dan notwithstanding, I am a very direct and practical person who does not pull any punches with my endorsements. I highly recommend that you consider Dan for your representation; at the very minimum, meet with him and see for yourself how Dan can assist you in navigating such a sad and frustrating life event as a divorce. And to you reading who may be struggling, I wish you good luck.

Jessica Defino was the opposing counsel for part of my divorce case. All she had to do was to get a 'minor travel consent form' notarized , which she failed to do. This caused my attorney to have to attend another billable court appearance which cost me an additional $285. I would expect someone with a law degree who charges $400 an hour to be able to understand that a simple form needs to be notarized.

Lisa Giese was an phenomenal attorney to work with! I wish I had hired her originally. I cannot say enough good things about how she (and Danielle Nielsen) helped with my divorce case. Lisa was easy to work with, always responsive (I live out of IL), extremely knowledgeable, intelligent, experienced, honest & direct, insightful, and provided excellent advice/ recommendations (what I needed to know, even if I didn't agree). My case was being drawn out by my ex and her counsel, but with Lisa's help the case was brought to a (favorable) conclusion in a reasonable amount of time.Lisa and her team helped me navigate through a difficult process and worked extremely hard to deliver favorable results. I give Lisa and her team the highest recommendation for anyone who needs a great attorney to assist in a divorce.

Jane is incredible to work with. From the beginning she will explain in detail what you can expect. She walks you though each step. Best of all she is ALWAYS available to answer questions. I had a ton of questions and was overwhelmed. Jane put my mind at ease.

Daniel was able to help me expand my company with contracts. He was so nice and took time to really understand what I needed. He thought of things I had no idea I even needed to think about. He took time to explain things to me I was unsure. He wrote everything for me in a perfect time frame. I would highly recommend Daniel with any small business needs!!!

Dan has an incredible ability to put you right at ease from the minute you speak to him. That is something that helped me a lot while I was going through a very contentious divorce. I went to two law firms before I met with Dan and In just 15 mins of speaking with him , I had made up my mind and knew I wanted him to represent me . Dan and his law firm have a wonderful reputation in the community and are highly respected . Dan keeps you grounded and is also very realistic in terms of demands and thats what I liked best. I have referred several of my friends and will continue to do so. You want him on your side , he will fight for you and is very well respected amongst his peers and in the courtroom.

I was referred to Dan Kollias for my divorce case by other family members who had used his services in the past. Dan worked very hard on what turned out to be a complicated case and was professional and helpful throughout. He kept me informed of status and changes and met with me whenever a face-to-face meeting was requested or needed. I highly recommend Dan to others who need professional legal assistance.

I recently went through a divorce and Dan Kollias was my attorney. He was great! He helped me understand the laws and made sure I knew what I was entitled to. Dan and every person I dealt with in the law firm were friendly and professional. I always knew they were just a phone call or email away. They answered everything quickly and followed up on anything I needed. I highly recommend Kollias and Giese!

I cannot say enough good things about Jessica Defino!! I am so happy I decided to hire her as my attorney.I live in California and have an extremely busy work schedule. My court case was out of Illinois. My ex was violating a poorly self written court order, I missed out on a summer of parenting time because of it, and I needed help correcting the order before the next summer.To make matters worse, my ex is very manipulative, volatile, and purposefully not helpful. Jessica listened to my frustrations and started working on my case right away. I was able to stay in California while Jessica dealt with my ex and represented me in Illinois court.With Jessicas help, we were able to correct the parenting agreement in time for the upcoming summer. Everything we hoped to accomplish with my case, Jessica was able to make happen. I was nervous about the whole court process, but Jessica put me at ease with her professionalism, friendly personality, and attention to detail.Years ago, out of irrational anxiety about divorce attorneys and dealing with my ex, I failed to hire an attorney to help me with the divorce process. I paid the price because of it, both emotionally and financially. I ultimately felt defeated and helpless for years. Working with Jessica helped me gain back confidence, and I finally felt like something went in my favor.I highly recommend hiring Jessica as your attorney. Not only do I think she is a great attorney, but also feel she is a good person. She listens to you, gives you solid advice, and will always fight for what is right. I have a few other matters I need to take care of moving forward, and will definitely be reaching out to her for legal representation in the near future. My confidence in her as an attorney helped restore damaged confidence within myself.I should have written this review way earlier in the year, but was busy enjoying time with my children thanks to hiring Jessica as my attorney!

I met with 8 or so firms before meeting with Kollias & Giese. I went with this firm because out of all the firms I met with, Dan was a straight shooter from the beginning of my case. Kept me informed the entire time every step of the way, and even calmed me down before taking the witness stand (which I was very nervous to do). I could not have hoped for a better outcome, I got everything I fought for (mostly child support reduction but there were other matters involved as well). Was pretty sure that some of the stuff I was going for was a long shot but Dan made it all happen. The case lasted 8 months and Dan was there for me throughout. Way more than I could have ever hoped for in an attorney. Worth every penny.

Dan Kollias came highly recommended and I cant say enough good things about him. Throughout my divorce process, Dan always made sure that my best interests were well represented, with integrity. He is compassionate, attentive and I was totally impressed by his organization and solid negotiation skills. I cant thank Dan enough and will always be grateful for having him as my attorney. I would highly recommend using Dan Kollias as your divorce attorney. Stacy

I can't say enough good things about my experience working with Dan. He was so helpful and supportive throughout the divorce process. He was attentive, quick to respond, and always worked to find the best ways toward resolution. If you are going through a divorce and looking for a great lawyer who will be on your side and do whatever possible to help you, there is no one better than Dan.

I was referred to Kollias & Giese for my divorce and I have nothing but positive things to say about Dan Kollias. I was very nervous before my initial meeting with Dan but he was able to calm my nerves as he is very knowledgeable and very detailed about the divorce process. Dan is very personable yet professional. I felt confident and secure with Dan as my lawyer and I would highly recommend him.

Lisa and her team were compassionate and extremely responsive at all times. I felt very confident in their team during a time when I needed help! They treated me extremely well and were very fair in spending time with me to create a solution. I was pleased with their surprisingly reasonable fees. I recommend using their team for any family law needs!

My names Alex, I hired Daniel from this law firm to handle a custody case for me. Not only was his whole staff great, very responsive, but everything he told me was upfront and went the way it was suppose to go. He took his time to explain my concerns if something went sideways in my situation, he was patient with me while trying to get my part of the job in order and Ill admit, I had some concerns during the court day, but once the judge signed off for what we wanted I cant explain how happy I am! Also what was really great was a long email by him explaining to me what we can do, which I found many lawyers lack doing. Everybodys case is different but this law firm is very clear, honest and has done what they told me they could. Highly recommended by me!

Very Attentive and Proffessional.They made my emergency, their priority!Found and spoke with them late Friday evening, met early Saturday morning, and in court first thing Monday.Where others would of dragged out proceedings; they gave me straight no BS assessments and got me desired results in a matter of weeks.In my 17 years of searching for counsel in family law, their level of expertise comes second to none.Mr. Kollias and Mr. Conner, you gentlemen were able to accomplish and succeed; where many others have falied or unwilling to attempt.Thank you for getting me custody and reuniting me with my daughter.

I was represented better than I could have ever imagined. My needs were put first and was treated as a friend rather than a number. My opinions were valued and my doubts were always reassured. My nerves were calmed and the process was always explained. Jane Nagle fought hard for me. she went above and beyond and did everything she could to ensure a great outcome. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney and her firm. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. This review is from a person who hired this attorney.Hired attorney Sincerely, Marcia and Kids

I hired Lisa after switching attorneys during my divorce case, seeking new counsel. Lisa is responsive, understanding and knowledgeable. It was clear to me that she was paying attention to the details of my case throughout. During the case, Lisa was an excellent advocate for my son and I. Currently, I am so happy to spend the parenting time with my son that I was able to get agreement on via Lisa's help. Lisa is an excellent coach and counselor. I also found her encouraging and caring towards the stress of my case.Also- I was impressed by the legal team at Kollias and Giese. They are responsive and helpful when I needed their assistance.Lastly, and also very important- whenever I received an invoice, I felt like the billing was accurate and fair.Thanks very much Lisa!

I hired Dan Kollias as my attorney to handle my divorce and I have so far been very pleased with the results. Mr. Kollias has not only gotten results for me, he has done so in an intelligent and respectable manner. His office staff has always been very courteous and helpful and I have felt like I've been in good hands all around. I would definitely recommend Mr. Kollias if you are looking for an intelligent, above board, and courteous attorney that can get positive results in what can otherwise be a very messy business.

I hired Lisa as my representative for a post decree child support and child custody case in Kane County. She was responsive and very competent. This is high praise if you knew how I feel about most attorneys. She was also very fair in her billing. Of course lawyers are expensive, but she was honest in her billing hours - often cutting me a break. I have acted pro-se and have dealt with multiple attorneys, mediators, and GALS. She is by far one of the best I have worked with. If you have to work with an attorney in Kane County, she is the way to go.

If I could give Lisa Giese 12 stars I would! Lisa is extremely knowledgeable and has nothing but the best intentions for her clients. Lisa represented me when I went through what should have been a very easy and '1-2-3 open and closed' divorce. Our children were grown and living on their own and we only had the one home, which I didn't even want. Instead, because of my ex-husband's poor choice of an attorney it turned into a very long drawn out and contentious fight that took over two years. At one point I was so tired of it all I told Lisa I wanted to give up and let him have everything. I'll never forget what she told me. She said she remembered our very first meeting and the 'glow' I had looking forward to the next phase in my life and she wasn't going to let them wear me down and give in to them. That really stuck with me. And even though my ex decided he didn't like the judges ruling and filed an appeal to the appellate court Lisa never gave up on me! Lisa is very well known (and liked) by every colleague I ever saw her with. That says a lot to me! Even now, years later I still need Lisa's help with an issue with my ex-husband and she did not hesitate to jump in and help me out. Believe me when I say, you cannot go wrong if you hire Lisa Giese and her firm as your attorney!

Thank you Jane Nagle !Going through a divorce is difficult especially when it is not one's choice. When I realized I needed an attorney I began my search. I ruled out those attorneys who mailed me a solicitation the days after the first filing.I interviewed attorneys,read on line reviews, and researched biographies and was most impressed by Jane Nagle of Kollias & Giese in Wheaton.Jane is exceedingly smart, highly competent in the law, and an outstanding communicator. She represented me in an exemplary fashion and protected my interests that resulted in a very fair settlement to my great relief. She would respond the same day of an inquiry, would press the opposing attorney on outstanding issues, and provided assurance during those times when I was feeling anxious. Her billing was very reasonable and precise and was respectful of my resources.I was and am very fortunate to be represented by Jane Nagle.

My experience with Lisa Giese and her team at Kollias & Giese has been absolutely amazing! A friend of mine, who is a reputable lawyer in Chicago, referred me to Lisa stating she was the best family lawyer in DuPage County. Seeing her work in action with my case, I completely agree! The amount of dedication and support Lisa has provided me and my family with since day 1 has been nothing but exceptional! I was expecting my case to be a nightmare, but so far it's been a dream come true. Lisa has always been there to address my concerns, provide expert advice, constantly keeps me informed of any updates and does everything she can to provide us with the best possible outcome! I couldn't be happier with the endless support my family and I have received from Lisa and her team of professionals! Thank you to everyone that works at Kollias and Giese, P.C.!
