Hired Law Firm

After my car accident it was evident I needed a good lawyer. Once again, I extend my heartfelt thanks for the exceptional professionalism demonstrated in Bellas & Wachowski, Attorneys at Law. Mr. Peter Wachowski and his assistant Gosia were not only professional but cared about me every step of the way. I know I got the Best of the Best as they worked through my case, spent time with me, got all my bills paid and a very good settlement for my injuries. Mr. Wachowski is an excellent attorney and a true gentleman.

I would highly recommend George Ballas. He handled a business partnership dissolution that had turned very ugly. He kept me informed at every stage and completely explained what the options were at every point and the possible outcomes of each option. He answered any question and concern I had and did so in layman's terms. He always made sure to keep my expectations of the final outcome realistic and I always felt he was taking a personal interest in my situation beyond just basic representation

Some time ago, George handled a lawsuit my firm was involved with that literally could have put me out of business. But thanks to his legal expertise, strategic planning and diligent efforts, he not only got the case dismissed but resulted in the plaintiff paying all legal fees.{para}George Bellas and his firm are my go-to for any type of legal counsel! Highly recommended!!

Hired Attorney George Bellas

I fired George S. Bellas for many reasons, and if I hadn't, the case he was handling so incompetently for me would have ended up in the trash due to his ignorance of the law and the negligence he committed, which caused for me even more trouble than I had before I hired him.

Hired Attorney Peter Wachowski

This dude has office on Belmont where he invites poor Polish immigrants who need help and he hears them alright, sometimes suggest something but he overwhelingly rejects their cases saying: "well, we can't do much or it was ment to be" bs; however if it's winnable case, he will take it. This guy is part of lousy lawyers aka Polish-American mafia of lawyers comprised of: Steven Kozicki (now judge), William Murakowski, Christopher Buchcar. All, except for Buchcar don't speak Polish (they are killing it, Wachowski is half-fluent though), yet they advertise themselves as Polish speaking. I was in jail too long, after proven not guilty on all felony charges, cook county jail kept me too long and I wanted compensation but Wachowski refused to look into this as there were some challenges in the case. So many American/Chicago lawyers want easy cases but they will not be remembered like one of few good lawyers James Mcguire: encyclopediasupreme.org/CCCCPS/mcguirereport.pdf STAY AWAY FROM PETER!
