Mr Skinner was professional, reliable, and never gave up even though I was starting to loose faith after we lost the arbitration hearing. But Mr. Skinner filed a rejection with the court, went back to court and got us the win! I cannot THANK him enough for he did for me. I would strongly recommend his legal services.

Hired Attorney Steven E. Skinner II

I truly was in a bind when I learned that I had a very old warrant that I had no knowledge of. Within minutes of reaching out looking for an attorney, Mr. Skinner called me. I had long since moved out of state, but that wasn't a concern for him. He listened closely to my endeavor, found out I indeed had a warrant, and laid out what was going to be done. In a very short time, Mr. Skinner had the warrant squashed and has eliminated that ugly cloud hanging over me. I would recommend Skinner Law Firm to anyone who needs a strong, knowledgeable attorney in the Chicagoland area, and I am truly happy to have found him.

Mr. Skinner has been my lawyer in two recent real estate transactions. His knowledge, professional and responsiveness made both transactions simple and smooth. His personality also makes him pleasant to be around -- which is a great benefit when you spend a lot of time working with someone. If you need a good lawyer, I highly recommend Steven Skinner.
