Robert J Callahan

When I was looking for a Chicago defense lawyer to help me with an Illinois DUI, I wasn't sure about what defense attorney in Chicago would be the best pick. I had a couple of friends talk to me about Callahan, but they had to do with high profile crimes that needed a good lawyer. Honestly, I thought that Callahan might be out of my league. Actually, he was pretty reasonable and even if he wasn't, it would have been well worth it. He knew the right questions to ask and knew the best ways for a Criminal Defense lawyer in Chicago to approach the case. I hope I never have to use him again. :-) more

I had a fairly serious legal issue but was fortunate to be put in touch with Mr. Callahan. He is highly skilled, extremely competent and very attentive. I am what you would consider a high maintenance client who needed to be intimately involved in my case. Mr. Callahan always returned my calls, was proactive and committed to helping in win my case. He exudes extreme confidence and was always willing to go the extra mile. He even visited me in jail late at night, how many other attorneys would do that. Never underestimate the power of a good attorney. The state knows who the good attorneys are and they are far less likely to pursue a marginal case if they know who they are up against. For me, my felony case was dropped, I considered it a miracle. Don't risk your future, go with the best you will be happy you did. more

I live in Chicago but still drive to work every once in a while. I went out with a bunch coworkers for happy hour not too long ago and I had driven to work that day. I did not think it would be a big deal to drive home because I thought CPD never stops anyone unless you are doing something really bad. I was pulled over and arrested for drunk driving. I looked for criminal defense attorneys in Chicago and came across Robert Callahan. Even though I was embarrassed, I called to check out Attorney Callahan and that was all it took. I really felt like he was completely on my side. While we were on the phone he already started to make me feel better about my problem. Attorney Callahan attacked the case against me and got it dismissed. Hard lesson learned but I really thankful for Attorney Callahan. more

Robert Callahan really came through for me. He knew everything about the law in my situation, and had me in and out of the court room in no time. Great job. more

Very knowledgeable and professional. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends or family who were facing criminal charges. He was knowledgeable about every aspect of my case and was dead on about what would happen at each of my court dates. more
