Awesome And I Would Highly Recommend Him
My husband and I were starting the divorce process and I hired Michael as my attorney. Not only was Michael knowledgeable but he was able to explain how the process works and was very clear about my options. Fortunately for me and my family my husband and I worked it out and we did not go through with the divorce. Even though we did not go through the entire divorce process he only charged me for the service he did and it was a fair rate. During the entire process he always replied to my messages very, very quickly! He was awesome and I would highly recommend him. ~ Family Law Client, August 2018
Thank You For Everything
Michael, thank you for everything. I really love seeing my girls every week and honestly if it wasn’t for you I would get to see them much. ~ Bobby, August 2018

I cannot say enough GREAT things about this entire firm! They worked relentlessly to help me regain full custody of my daughter and in a timely fashion.

You and your staff are truly top notch professionals and uphold the true meaning of code of conduct in the courtroom and outside of the courtroom. It’s nice to see integrity and professionalism. ~ Family Law Client, July 2018
True Gentleman
Gary: Opposing counsel said he owes you a handshake. He left Court hot and he said that you “kicked his ass fair and square,” that you are a “true gentleman” and that he “learned a lot.” ~ Opposing counsel, July 2018
Appreciate You Taking My Case
Michael, Thank you so much. I appreciate you taking the time and taking on my case. You are a kind, altruistic person. ~ Family Law Client, July 2018

Thank you for all that you do for the betterment of our communities
Dear Mr. Strauss, on behalf of the Lake County Housing Authority and my team on the Family Self-Sufficiency Program, I would like to sincerely thank you for attending our Black Tie Gala. I hope that you and Mrs. Strauss, along with your in-laws, enjoyed the evening. Congratulations once again!

Thanks to Amber & Gary…Awesome, Thorough, Detailed
Thank you so much Amber. And thank you Gary for such awesome and thorough and detailed work. ~ Anne, June 2018
Compassionate & Understanding…Michael Listened to What Was Important to Me
I highly recommend Michael and his team. I hired him part-way through my divorce process due to dissatisfaction with my first attorney. Michael took my case and got it on track. He spent time learning my case and learning the complexity of what we were dealing with. I felt that he understood how to deal with a high conflict case and he took the time to listen, with compassion and understanding. He gave great advice but also listened to what was important to me. If you’re in need of legal representation I would highly recommend Michael Strauss. ~ Family Law Client, June 2018
Highly Recommend Deanna Hoyt…Fantastic Attorney!
I would highly recommend Deanna Hoyt. I hired her and Michael Strauss part-way through my divorce process due to dissatisfaction with my first attorney. As soon as they were hired they learned my case and got it back on track. Deanna is very knowledgeable and she responded in a timely manner with questions I had related to the documents we were working on and the overall divorce process. I felt confident in her ability to litigate, on my behalf, against opposing counsel. My case was complex and high conflict due to opposing party but she knew how to navigate through those difficult waters. Quite frankly, I believe she continued getting better and better throughout the entire divorce process and I believe she will continue to be a fantastic attorney a great asset to Michael’s team. If you’re in need of legal representation I would highly recommend Deanna Hoyt. ~ Family Law Client, June 2018
Thank You So Much Michael
Mr Strauss, Thank you so much for your hard work and for all your help. I will pick up my files next week. May God continue to bless you. ~ Marigayle, June 2018

Thanks to Michael for Standing Up for Illinois Families
Mr. Strauss and Family, My name is Andrea Wilson and I work at the Illinois Coalition Against Domestic Violence. People have shared with me how you have stood up to fight against HB 4113. Thank you for all that you have done standing up for the safety of Illinois families. People have also shared some of the price you and your family are paying for the stand you’ve taken. I cannot imagine dealing with such threats and hatred. Please know that there are people, families and organizations like ours that are grateful for you and the sacrifices you have made. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. ~ Thank you, Andrea, April 2018
Gary – Thank You For All The Hard Work
Thank you for all the hard work to get my divorce finalized and finished. ~ Robert, April 2018
Mike & Deanna, I Can’t Thank You Enough
I just received the email you sent and I truly can’t thank you enough.
You have given me so much comfort knowing that I have such an amazing group of lawyers on
my side. This is the first time in 10 years I am finally fighting back and not letting my ex and his
wife bully me anymore. I appreciate you and Deanna more then I can ever express and I will be forever
grateful to you. You have an amazing staff!!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!! ~ Tracey, April 2018
Excellent Stuff!
Excellent stuff Gary and Rachael! ~ Jarrod, April 2018
Thanks to Mike…Outstanding!
Mike, You did a great job coordinating the opposition to HB 4113. Your testimony in opposition today and at the prior hearing was outstanding, and brought to the attention of the entire General Assembly the bill’s deficiencies and the sponsor’s flawed rhetoric. You work tirelessly in opposition to the bill, and we are all very grateful. Thank you, Mike and to all the other members of the Section Council that spent their time and effort in opposition to HB 4113. ~ April 2018
Great Job Deanna
Deanna did a great job yesterday considering the circumstances. Thank you Deanna! ~ Family Law Client, April 2018

Congratulations to Michael, 2018 Access to Justice Award Recipient
Michael – With much mazel, congrats on being awarded the Access to Justice Award.

You are certainly to be highly commended for your good work. Congrats again. ~ James L. Schwartz, February 2018

Michael, Pleasure to work with experienced counsel with your reasonableness. ~ Best, Jene’t, Opposing Counsel, December 2017
Exceeded Every Expectation!
Do you want results in your case? You should take the time to read this.
I came to Mike and Gary after having a horrible and expensive experience with another firm. I was sure the position I was left in by the other firm was unrecoverable. Do you want results? I sure did. I got them here. These guys exceeded every expectation and re-instilled in me of faith for the profession I’d come to question. There are a lot of lawyers out there to choose from. They all have advertising. How could you know who the pick? After the experience I had, I wanted to take the time to offer a testimonial that might save someone reading this a whole mess of grief…and whole lot of money. No, I’m not a paid advertiser, just someone who went through a two-year hellish divorce until I was referred to Mike and Gary – one of the best decisions I ever made was to retain them. What do you really want from your lawyers? I know now: ethics, a bent towards protecting the children first, expertise in the process and case law precedents, a solid reputation and rapport within the counsel community, and rapport with those ultimately in control of your future – the judges. Oh, and how about results and getting the job done? Don’t look any further; those aspects are all right here. Between Gary and Mike, I found their ability to cite precedent off the cuff absolutely astounding. I found their reputation within the community of Lake County lawyers one of respect and amiability, and they had the respect and goodwill with the judges. Yes, and they made it happen – got results – real results. These guys never wasted time to inflate the bill, quite the opposite; all the while exceeding my expectations on what was possible for me. That’s why I took the time to write this.
Do you want a therapist? Better go get one because you won’t find that service here. These guys are no nonsense and very busy. If you want a lawyer who’s going to write back long emails to your rants about how you feel, and all your irrelevant garbage (not to be flippant – I know these are very important to us as real people going through an all too real difficult time – yes – it really hurt), you better save that stuff for a therapist, or a close family member or friend….sparingly of course. A lawyer isn’t a therapist, your best friend, father, mother, sister, brother… or baby sitter (of us or our children LOL). Some lawyers will happily allow you to engage them at $350 per hour to listen to our heartaches and maybe even encourage us to spin wheels down those expensive roads. These guys are too busy to gouge your money in that way – they don’t need to – they’re too busy. Think about that. Most of a law firms business comes from referrals. They’re busy for a reason, busy getting results – not with the BS.
This process is really tough and I hope my words might help someone who is about to begin. Had I come to these guys initially, I would’ve saved months and months of grief and tens of thousands of dollars. I really hope this does help: be positive, tell the truth, focus on the children first, remember the process has an end but how we act through it lasts forever, and hire an incredible lawyer with ethics – the legal consequences last quite a long time also… if not forever. It gets a lot better in many ways when you have the right people on your side. I’m sure you have the friends and family – retain Gary (Mike here in his review) for the legal part of your team. Chin up and good luck to you. ~ Dean B., December 2017
Eternally Grateful
Your office has done more for me than anyone has in the last two years. I am eternally grateful. ~ Family Law Client, October 2017

Thank You for Standing With Me
Thank you for everything. I was glad to have you and your firm standing with me through this process. ~ Lindsay, October 2017

Murphy, Executive Director of The Lilac Tree, September 2017
Very Pleased With Results!
Mike, I just wanted to say thank you very much for what you and Gary did. I got 97% of what I wanted and that’s extraordinary. You fought a dirty, hard fighter for me. I am very pleased with the end result. Gary, we were probably meant to hang out with guitars instead of legal crap in our laps… ~ Dean, September 2017
Thank You So Much for What You Did Today
Thank you so much for what you did today. Your legal skill proceeded you, but your ability to digest such a mountain of data so quickly was absolutely impressive, your professional and likable demeanor in and out of the courtroom something I’m so pleased to be associated with, and your quick resolution of a near two year nightmare absolutely extraordinary. You both are incredible…thank-you! ~ Dean August 2017

PS – Thank you!
Your paralegal told us you spent 6 hours researching my case and filing a 6 page motion for me. You take very good care of us and I hope you know how much we appreciate it…please know how much I appreciate all your hard work and taking my case seriously. ~ Family Law Client, July 2017
Recommending Them to My Friends
I’ve meet with lawyers before, and met with Michael this past week. And I can honestly say I’ve never felt so comfortable and confident with the help and information he provided. I was scared of what can happen in my situation, and he assured my fiance and I that things will work out. And I believe him. Schlesinger and Strauss was recommended by my friend, and I will be recommending them to my friends. ~ Heather, July 2017
Thanks to Alexa
You all are great!!! Thank you. ~ Rodney, July 2017

Best Attorney in Town
I told them all Michael Strauss is the best attorney in town. And Gary too. And then I went on and on about how you never let things get that far south with my case, even though you had a million opportunities to engage in a blood bath. It’s the truth! ~ Family Law Client, March 2017

We received wonderful feedback from those who attended the conference, many of whom attended your breakout session…It was a full day of learning and sharing, which left people eager not only to utilize their new resources, but also to learn more.
The Partnership for a Safer Lake County could not have presented a successful conference without your help. Thank you again! ~ Most appreciatively, Terri Olian, October 2016

Gary’s Reputation Says It All
I have known Gary a long time. I have hired him on multiple occasions and would do so again. His reputation says it all. Read about him from professional references. Gary does what is best for you when you know not what that is. Do you really want to be billed for responses to emotionally charged emails that serve no purpose? He does not work that way. Some Lawyers take every opportunity to rack up your bill. Not Gary. He knows what to say and when to say it. Retain him, leave him alone, let him do his job. He is not your pen pal, I have spoken to Gary a handful of times yet have complete faith in his work because I have been to his local lectures and know his background. It is a discipline to realize this in personal legal matters however he need not be advised by you or I. He has been doing this a long time and HE IS VERY GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES. ~ Leo, July 2016
Complex Interstate Visitation Case
Gary is an elite Attorney and super Lawyer representing me in a complex interstate visitation case whom has been in the upper echelon of his profession for quite some time. He has and continues to represent me in a manner that regularly leaves me assured that my opposition is outmatched. His staff is friendly, punctual with forwarding documents and responding to calls and emails, and always more than fair with their billing practices. I would choose no other Attorney than Gary Schlesinger for any family law matters. ~ Brook, July 2016
Incredibly Happy! Post-Divorce Motions
Gary is calm, patient, strategic and supportive. He represented me against two motions (ridiculous motions) filed by my ex-husband who is an attorney himself. The opposing attorney and my ex-husband tried every “trick” they could find to try and intimidate me and Gary. They were and they are relentless bullies. Gary, however was confident, calm and reassuring to me every step of the way. In trial, he outshined the opposing counsel with his confidence and his presence. Moreover, Gary completely flummoxed my ex-husband on cross examination. It was really a remarkable feat, considering my ex-husband calls himself openly a “brilliant trial lawyer.” I should also note that my ex-husband’s father is also an attorney, so Gary and I faced three attorneys: the opposing counsel, my ex-husband and his father. The outcome was as expected, as the judge decided the case in short amount of time in our favor. Gary and his staff are professional and wonderful people. I would highly recommend him and I would hire him again if needed. ~ Andrea, June, 2016
Thanks to Gary
Gary, You are my hero…last leg of this 16 year ordeal for me. Thank You for seeing me and my family through this. ~ Jerilee, May 2016
Thanks to Michael
Michael, Just a quick note to say thank you for those notes today. So, nice to know I have someone in my corner defending me. Thank you. ~ Family Law Client, May 2016
Couldn’t Have Done It Without Mike’s Help!
Dear Mike, Thank you for your continued support of A Safe Place and the EmpoweRun 5K. Thanks to your sponsorship and support, this year’s race was our most successful 5k yet! We couldn’t have done it without your help. A Safe Place is able to continue providing life-saving services to survivors of domestic violence and their families. ~ Thank you! Pat D., May 2016.
Thanks to Gary
Thank you, again, for all you did for me. I have sent a number of people your way and will continue to do so. All my best. ~ Wendy, April 2016
Wonderful!
Gary, You are wonderful and your email is incredible. You are a good person. I knew that from day one. Your firm is filled with nice people. ~ Andrea, April 2016
Honest, Accurate Information
Mike, Just wanted to thank you again for all of the time you spent with us last night. I know we kept you a lot longer than I had hoped, and I hope we didn’t cut into your family time too much, but we felt so incredibly comfortable with you, and I knew that we would get honest, accurate information and that you would understand the situation.
It meant a lot that you spent all of that time – you’re the best, and I greatly appreciate it. Thank you. ~ Family Law Client, April 2016
The Best!
Gary, You are the best!! ~ Attorney Valerie I. Steiner, Clark & Steiner, LTD, April 2016

Dear Mike, Thank you for joining us for ASCC this year, and for all of your great work on Friday. We appreciate your participation, and your willingness to help develop opportunities for our students. It means a great deal to the College and our students. Have a great week! ~ Greg Miarecki, University of Illinois College of Law
Razor Sharp Insight…A True Advocate
I can’t say enough positive things about Michael Strauss. My ex-husband was/is an extremely high conflict, narcissistic personality (Google it), extremely controlling and abusive, and within about thirty seconds of our initial meeting, Michael knew EXACTLY what he was dealing with. He met all my fears and concerns with a swift and confident supportive argument. I truly felt “advocated” for. He also had an almost immediate sense of what level of emotional stress I had the capacity to endure and took that into careful consideration when handling my case.
He priced me fairly, didn’t sugarcoat anything or draw things out, returned emails and questions within a very short time frame, and in general just really made me feel like he appreciated my business and took my case and my questions very seriously. You might think that all that should be a given, but you would be surprised how many people complain about their divorce attorneys.
I am now several years post decree and will shortly be in need of a revised parenting agreement due to life changes. (marriage, job change, etc.) I’m so glad I know exactly where to go for help. ~ Anne, February, 2016
Thanks to Michael
Thank you Michael, this is fantastic news. I appreciate all the help. ~ Thanks so much again, Josh, February 2016
Appreciate Guidance
Dear Mr. Schlesinger, I wanted to take a few minutes to thank you again for all the advice you gave me as my ABA Family Law Mentor. Since becoming licensed to practice in November, I have used your list as a guide for steps I should take to get myself immersed in the field. Specifically, I have signed up for mediation training, I joined the ISBA family law and CBA Matrimonial Law Committee and young lawyers committees for both, I read the Illinois Divorce Digest and try to attend a CLE a month, particularly any regarding the recent major revisions to the statutes. I really appreciate all the guidance you provided me (and continue to provide me through your insightful answers on Avvo). Thank you again. ~ Best, Stephanie T., Attorney, February 2016
Grateful for Support
Michael, I continue to be grateful to you and Laurie for your support and advice during flare-ups. You guys are the best. ~ Anne, February 2016
Awesome!
Gary, You are awesome!!!! ~ Mary, December 2015
Thanks to Gary
Happy Hanukkah Gary. You’re a good man and I take the advice you’ve given to me to heart. I appreciate you. ~ Dave, December 2015

My Kids and I Are Forever Grateful
Gary, thank you so much for sending me the order and successfully handling my case! Thankful that the “retroactive sum” will be automatically garnished from his check so that I do not have to receive payment from him directly (he would not have done it on his own). My kids and I are forever grateful. I can use my name!! Bless you and have a wonderful Holiday. ~ Andrea, September 2015
Thankful You Were Involved with My Son
Gary, I just wanted to take the time to let you know that through it all, and there has been a great deal of it, I will always look back and be thankful that you were the one involved with my son. I have found you to be a man of great common sense and fairness. Truly one in a billion! I will keep in touch with you regarding my son in his growth as a young man. He did great working this summer and now is ready to get to his real job – Education. Thank you for all you have done for my son! Great Regards ~ Chris, August 2015
Thank You Both for All You Did Today

Truly a Blessing…Greatly Impressed
To the inspirational and generous legal team at Schlesinger & Strauss LLC,
Thank you for your generous support and efforts in my dissolution of marriage…your services are truly a blessing to me and my family to help me gain independence from an abusive husband who left me and my girls with no support. Everyone’s continuing optimism, patience to explain this process, professionalism, compassion, and levity let me know I was in good care.
Specifically, I’d like to thank your paralegal, Laurie Cagle. She emailed and explained many documents for me. She gave helpful instructions for preparing my financial reports. She answered many of my questions and reassured me several times.
Michael Strauss’ optimism and expertise comforted me greatly as I faced this life-changing obstacle. He effortlessly and positively responded to all of my questions. As we faced down the 18 month schedule of court dates, he assured me the end was in sight.
Lastly, I want to thank Gary Schlesinger…his talent for turning my distress with levity coupled with his sympathy for my suffering, is evidence of his enduring integrity.
With everyone’s help at Schlesinger & Strauss, I was able to retain my modest home and car, keep sole custody and obtain child support for my girls. I’ve restarted my life with peace, dignity and stability. ~ Sincerely, Angela, August 2015

Great Lawyer that Knows the Law and Will Fight for You!
I had one heck of a legal case with my ex-husband. I knew that I needed one of the best divorce lawyers in Lake County and went immediately to Gary! Gary has many years of experience dealing with divorce and KNOWS the laws. Gary always responded to my emails and questions the same day or in the evenings and on weekends. His responses were via email and phone calls. The paralegals in his office are also great to work with and always very responsive. Please keep in mind that Gary is usually in court and will respond to your emails when he can or in the evenings. His emails are very direct and to the point (no fluff) he tells you the truth and does not lead you on like other lawyers. Everyone tries to be a lawyer and it’s hard to let someone else take control. Once you understand Gary’s style you can sit back and relax and know that he has your back. This man is amazing to watch in action and his responses to other lawyers are impressive! Gary fought like hell for my case and came out swinging right from the start. Gary is well respected by many fellow colleagues and the Judges in Lake County. Very fair with billing and his hours. I highly recommend Gary and can’t thank him enough for taking on my case! ~ Kimberley, April 2015
Very Grateful
Gary, Thanks for the letter and for all your assistance. I am very grateful for your help, time and understanding throughout this very difficult process. ~ Jose, Family Law Client, April 2015
Michael Handled Case with My Best Interests at Heart
As with any divorce, this was a very emotional time and Michael handled my case with my best interests at heart. He was compassionate, understanding, a fierce advocate for me during a very difficult time, extremely knowledgeable of the laws and a stellar professional the entire way. He was always quick to return phone calls, emails and/or texts. Always! My questions/fears were answered. His paralegal Laurie is amazing as well. She was always on top of things and even great at lending an ear! Michael knew the laws better than the other attorneys–my ex went through two. He researched other cases similar to mine and had an execution route for every scenario. We were prepared for trial, but in the end my ex finally settled. Michael is very respected among his peers and knows pretty much everyone. I have recommended him to multiple people for family law. I wouldn’t trust anyone else as I want others to feel secure going into a very emotional time. He will take care of you, this is not a game to him, he understands these are people’s lives in his hands. ~ Colleen, Divorce Client, April 2015
Thanks to Gary
Gary, I read the letter and I want to thank you for being my advocate. ~Take Care, Jodi, March 2015
Thank You From the Bottom of My Heart!
Everyone at Schlesinger & Strauss, Thank you for all your hard work, research and numerous hours working on my case. Thank you for always answering my calls and emails. I know they were annoying at times. I thank you from the bottom of my heart! ~ Thanks, Kim, March 2015
Honored to Have Gary and Mike
Honored to have Gary and Mike representing me! ~ Leo, March 2015
Can’t Thank You (Michael) Enough
Seriously Michael, I can’t thank you enough for all that you’ve done!!! ~ Family Law Client, March 2015
I Recommend Gary Schlesinger
I recommend Gary Schlesinger. My ex wife has been harassing me for years. Gary and his team have been my only protection from her unwarranted claims and accusations. His billing is fair and his response time is better than other attorneys I have had in the past. Thanks for your support Gary! ~ A Divorce Client, March 2015
Feel Like a Huge Weight has Been Lifted

Contributions to the ISBA Appreciated by President-Elect
Gary, Thank you for your words. I have known you for a long time; if my memory serves me correctly, I first met you when I was appointed to and we both (you were already a member) served on the Family Law Section Council and that was a while ago, at least for me.
I have always been impressed by your comments and observations whenever an issue was brought up, discussed and debated by the Council. You would know the law and the everyday, practical application to people and their given issues, as their families were breaking up. Common sense applied to a lot of your comments.
My recollection from those early Saturday morning meetings is that I may have sometimes disagreed with your proposition but I had no disagreement with how you framed and presented your position and how you brought it to the table; many times I was in full agreement with you.
You, and many other members of the ISBA just like you, bring and share with others your knowledge, your skills and your experiences and every one of us, members of the ISBA, benefit from it.
And therein lies all the good that the ISBA collectively does for all the lawyers and Judges of Illinois. On a pro-bono basis, we are willing to share our knowledge and time with all who care to participate. ~ Umberto Davi, 2015 President-Elect of Illinois State Bar Association, November 2014

Thank you again. ~Jennifer

Made me Feel Comfortable
Mike, Just wanted to take a second and thank you for all the work you did on my behalf with the divorce. After my horrible experience with XXXXX, it was great to be with an attorney who not only made me feel comfortable but also gave me the confidence to know that if my wife and I hadn’t of come to an agreement that I had no doubt I would’ve won in court with your representation. Thank You for all you did.

I also wanted to thank you for taking the time and for caring enough to bring Bill and me together and talk to us. I know that you had no obligation to do that and that it was done from your heart. ~ Sincerely, Deanna 1/9/2013
Professionalism and Heart
Mike, I know sometimes your job must be very tough having to navigate people through such a difficult time in their lives. You have a gift and I thank you for helping me through this difficult time with such professionalism and heart.
Amazing
Hello Michael! By the way, for the record, I feel great. I cannot put into words the gratitude I have for walking me through the most horrific ordeal of my life. But, I will find them, and let anyone who will listen to me know how amazing you, and your firm are.

Great to See My Children Again
Gary, Thank you, thank you , thank you! It was really great to see my children again.
Excellent Job
Gary is the attorney in Lake County to whom I refer all my domestic law matters, and he does an excellent job. I have already spoken to him about this case, and he is expecting a call to set up an initial appointment.
Can’t Say Enough
Gary represented me when I was divorced 32 years ago, and I have known him longer than that. He is extremely well informed, experienced, energetic. I can’t say enough nice things about him. He practices in Libertyville, Lake County, Illinois.
Confident and Fortunate
Mike & Gary, First I would like to say thank you from both my wife and I for your time, expertise and counsel yesterday. We feel very confident and fortunate to have your firm representing us.
Champion the Rights of Men and Women Alike
Dear Gary, Legal representation at the level of expertise and service your team provides is unbelievably rare. Everyone on your team puts forth immense effort and cares about each client deeply. You and your team champion rights equally for both men and women alike. Carrying the legal load you carry is not easy and yet you have never sacrificed your client’s needs. Over the years I have had many dealings in the legal community and your fairness with fees is beyond reproach. From the bottom of my heart
-Thank You. ~ Sincerely, JimGreat Work
Dear Gary, Just a little note to thank you for your great work in court. We can’t express how much gratitude we have for you and your office girls. We had so much fun with “Little Chris”, what a miracle. We missed out on so much and now we have him back, thanks to you, and a bigger thanks for including me! We are so happy!
Support and Guidance Appreciated
Dear Gary and Staff, Well what a journey . . .Thank you for all your support and guidance and for believing in me. ~ Fond regards, V.
Finally Felt Someone Fighting for My Children
Thank you, Gary, for all you did yesterday in court. It has been the first time in nearly 10 years that I finally felt someone fighting for my children. . . . and that the court listened. You and Mike have always provided me the light at the end of a long tunnel.. . . Thank you both for fighting for my kids. It means more than you know. ~ Kathleen-February 2012
Professional
Gary and Michael-I appreciate your professional work on my divorce case over the last year. ~ Sincerely, David

Once again, thank you very much for your representation. ~ Best regards,Tom
Child Support Makes the Difference
Gary, THANK YOU for really fighting for me and my children today. I know how frustrating my case is for both you and Mike, and I just don’t have money. I want you to realize that this little bit of child support makes the difference of whether I make my rent this month or not having a roof over our heads again.
Karma
Hopefully, today’s order will be enforced and I can move on with my life and begin to rebuild without monthly court dates:-) You did really good! Mike did a great job on the dates he appeared as well and karma is showing itself. Thank you!!! ~ Jenifer” 09-12-2011

Amazing
Gary, Thank you – you and your team are amazing.
Helped Through a Nerve-Wracking Journey
Dear Gary, it has been a long and nerve-wracking journey. 6 months out of 18 months I worked with you. You have matched our expectations. You have eventually stopped this unfair non-sense. Despite being in the divorce law field full of unethical greedy lawyers, you have managed to remain a gentleman with high moral & ethical values! I wish I had retained you from the beginning but, at least, I am lucky that you agreed to work with me for the last 6 months. Thank you very much, Gary!
Thanks!
Thank you!
Excellent Work
Thank you so much for your excellent work on this…case. ~ Michael
Highly Regarded…Can Finally Focus on My Family

Thanks again!
Tireless Efforts
Dear Mr. Schlesinger, thank you for your tireless efforts on my behalf in obtaining the divorce from (name omitted). Thank you also for your continued concern for the well being of my children and the recovery of my health. All of your support, including that of your staff has heartened me greatly in this traumatic circumstance and helped my family and I to soldier on.
Thank You
Thank you very much “for what your works have done to ensure a better, more peaceful life” for me.
The Best!
Thanks Gary, You’re the best!
Held Ex Accountable
Gary, Thank you for your expertise and professionalism in the court room today. You definitely held [my ex-husband, name omitted] accountable for his actions, which no other attorney has ever accomplished to date. I appreciate your support during these very difficult times. I’m very fortunate to have selected you to represent me. Again, thank you for all your help.
Glad You Were on My Team
Thank you both for all the effort you made on my behalf. I’m glad you were on my team. From a soldier in Afghanistan whose case we just finished.
Thank You for Your Support
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your hard work and putting up with my panic attacks. Thank you for your support. I shall be a life long fan.

Appreciate Your Help
I appreciate your help and guidance through the past year.
Professionalism Burnt in Memory
Thank you so much for all your help in bringing this divorce to a close. You were magnificent and your professionalism in court was and is burnt in my memory. Thank you again. Your staff was as professional as you are.
Will Always Remember
I appreciate everything you did for me and will always remember that.
Invaluable Help
“…thank you for your representation. Your help has been invaluable.”
Help in Guiding
Thank you for your help guiding me through my divorce.
Helpful
Thank you and your staff for all your help.
One Hell of an Attorney
I want to thank you for believing in me. You are one hell of an attorney and I am glad you are on my side.
An Attorney That Cares
The controls that you think you once had in your life have now spiraled out of control and are now in the hands of the courts. Without Michael at my side I do not know what I would have done. His confidence and responsiveness was key and extremely valuable. He is not just an attorney with all the knowledge of the law. He is an attorney that cares. As scary as situations arise during the divorce, Michael would take the time to explain them to me because they were beyond my comprehension. He is extremely understanding and patient as I would ask the same questions or panic over things that seemed frightening to me. He would help me cope not just by listening to all my concerns but also giving me advice based on each situation as it arose. No matter how big or small the question or concern, he had an answer. . . I want to thank you, Mike for all your hard work and dedication that lead me through the most trying time of my life. No words, actions, or amount of money can ever repay all the things that you have done for me and my family.
