I’m thankful for the services of Matt Fakhoury. He kept me informed, conducted himself in a very professional manner, knows the law and the court system, and was personable in his service. I would use his services again if necessary and highly recommend him!
Matthew Fakhoury was very reliable. Always on time and with Matthew, I knew I had someone in my corner that would fight for me. 10/10. 5 stars.
Matt, along with his office staff, were very professional and caring in their service with our son!! We very much appreciated Matt’s expertise in a difficult case with our son. It was uncertain if a case could be split, meaning no expungement. Matt made the expungement happen, we are so grateful to Matt and his wonderful staff! A huge relief for our family and son! Then an unknown DUI appeared, and he took care of getting this quickly dismissed. The communication was excellent! Staff informed us what would happen with compliance after the expungement. This was a big relief. I researched and interviewed many criminal defense attorneys before we decided on Matt. We wanted the very best for our son! We would highly recommend Matt and his office staff to anyone!!!
THEY ARE WONDERFUL AND LIFE SAVERS I GOT IMMEDIATE SERVICE FROM THEM AND NOW IM ABLE TO START MY CAREER
Absolutely one of the top attorneys I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Matt and his team by far exceeded expectations. The consult piece was dealt with 100% transparency. I would recommend to anyone.
Law Offices of Matt Fakhoury is a top notch law firm. These lawyers are highly qualified, skilled, and knowledgeable.
I am relieved and happy for hiring them. Believe me, you do want to be in good hands when it comes to your future.
These attorneys came highly recommended to us to help with expunging a criminal matter. They were successful in this matter, bringing great relief to our family. The expectations they provided in the beginning were met within the time window they indicated. Many thanks to this firm for their professional services.
I just want to thank God for Colleen LeFevour who, when all other lawyers told me it would be a waste of time and money or too soon to expunge/seal my record, she made it happen. I cannot thank you enough. She never made any guarantees, but from the moment I met her, she made me believe she would go in there and do her best and she did it in great fashion. Thank you so much and I will be recommending you to any and everyone who could use your services.
I worked with Colleen and am very happy. All I can say is if you made a mistake, poor judgment, and for years it has weighed on your conscience: call them. The fee is very reasonable, was treated with respect, and my poor judgment has been removed. Thank you.
Caitlin Wilder of the Law Offices of Matt Fakhoury did a phenomenal job in representing us in our expungement petition. Her patience, willingness to dig deep to understand the details and thoroughness in case preparation made all the difference in delivering a favorable ruling for us. Would definitely hire her again if needed in the future.
Thank you attorney Caitlin Wilder for representing me and guiding me through such complex legal matters. That were legal consequences from a rambunctious, misguided youthful indiscretion of my life past.
I applaud your diligence and professionalism and recognize your commitment to duty. Your transparency and thoroughness generates a feeling of confidence in your representation. Additionally, having senior partner Matthew Fakhoury speak to me and ease some of my tensions with respect to the intricacies of this type of litigation put my mind at ease.
The most important aspect of this whole process is how you performed in court. Kudos to you attorney Caitlin Wilder… you were amazing! Your oral argument put the state’s attorney on his heels, and had the Presiding Judge compelled to rule “Expungement petition Granted”.
Again, many thanks to you Attorney Caitlin, and all in your office who participated in making the granting of my expungement petition possible… and helping me begin a new chapter in my life.
This review cannot begin to highlight what an amazing and proficient lawyer that attorney Caitlin Wilder is!
From the moment of our first phone interview, to ultimately winning in the courtroom, she exuded confidence and resolve. She assured the whole family that everything that could be done, would be done, to help Christopher obtain a judicial granting of his expungement petition.
Attorney Caitlin Wilder’s patience and professionalism during the “phone interview questioneers” reflected a passion and purpose of someone with genuine interest and concern for their client. She was candid, straightforward, and detailed in addressing all concerns we had about costs and installments dealing with this type of litigation.
Attorney Caitlin Wilder, the whole family thanks you for your dedication, diligence, and detailed focus; you were instrumental in ultimately winning the approval of our petition which culminated in the granting of Judicial expungement for Christopher.
This will help Christopher open doors to the right path for the rest of his life.
Since day one, Anna Nolazco was a huge help. She was very professional and kept in contact with me every step of the way. They have kept their word and got me through the expungement process.

You guys were a huge blessing.

MILTON STARKS
Mr. Fakhoury and his team recently represented me in a misdemeanor speeding case. Mr. Fakhoury proposed a clever and proactive strategy in my case that resulted in the absolute best case scenario. I was pleased with Mr. Fakhoury’s confident conduct in court and his apparent relationships with everyone at the courthouse. If you are in search of quality representation, definitely consult Mr. Fakhoury and his team.
Definitely recommend to anyone that is trying to clear their record. All my petitioned were granted. Matt was there personally to speak for me. Couldn’t be happier with the results. With an extra fee I was able to have my record cleared within 4 months. Price is fair and service is on point
Absolutely awesome representation!!
Colleen couldnt have impressed me more
With the handling of a special set of
circumstances!!!..
Happy holidays!!
Youv
Mr matt the best attorney ever. He’s really smart. I appreciate his efforts and would highly recommend him to anyone. Thank you🌹
Really good attorney!! Did a great job with my case .
At a time when stress is extreme and emotions run high, the expert legal counsel and calm reassurance of Mr. Fakhoury and Ms. LeFevour were both appreciated and highly important. Mr. Fakhoury was spot on in initial assessment of the issues and while providing for the client’s desires gave confident legal advice that proved wise and helpful. I would definitely recommend this firm and my experience with the criminal justice system is extensive. They are both compassionate and very effective attorneys.
Extremely professional and knowledgeable in the field. He responded to my inquiry on a Saturday and took the time to listen to the entire story. His confidence on the matter gives you a relief that you are in good hands. Highly recommend.
Matthew Fakhoury was very reliable. Always on time and with Matthew I knew I had someone in my corner that would fight for me. 10/10. 5 stars
Matt and his partner were very knowledgeable and down to earth. I will definitely recommend to anyone who doesn’t know where to go. I contacted on Sunday and he provided consultation in no time. I am so glad that I contacted him. He even arranged Uber for in-person meeting that I requested.
Very professional and knowledgeable. Great communication and quick response. Answered all my questions in a timely manner. I Highly recommend.
Absolutely one of the top attorneys I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Matt and his team by far exceeded expectations. The consult piece was dealt with 100% transparency. I would recommend to anyone.
Matt was very professional and extremely responsive to our needs. He knew exactly what was needed being out of state and the time frame in which it could be completed. Highly recommended.
In late December of 2018 I was involved arrested for on a Felony Aggravated DUI charge after I drove over a curb and managed to get stuck. I searched for lawyers in the Cook County area only to be referred to Matt. The prosecutor was pushing for a 4 year jail sentence, and even had me booked with a $100k bond after I blew a .001 through a breathalyzer prior to one of my court dates. Matt stood fast and supported me every step of the way, unlike other lawyers whome I’ve dealt with in the past. I’ve suffered from Bi-polar 2 disorder throughout my adult life, which has admittedly resulted in bad decisions, and Matt wholeheartedly empathized with my situation. Ultimately, after watching the bodycam footage (which in both Matt’s and my opinion showed that I clearly passed the field sobriety test despite not wearing my prescription glasses) he gave me the choice whether I’d like to fight the charge in trial or take a plea deal. By my own accord I chose the plea deal which was far from the 4 years of incarceration that the prosecutor and judge were pushing for. I ended up serving a mere 10 days in county with 2 years of Mental Health Probation. I honestly couldn’t recommend a better defense attorney! Thank You again Matt!
Did a fantastic job and anytime I emailed I always received a reply within 24 hours..
Matt has been our lawyer on speeding traffic tickets. The outcome by far exceeded any expectations and the level of service, responsiveness, and professionalism he and his team provides is second to none. Highly recommend.
Best attorney out there! I was in need of a lawyer suddenly for the first time and was nervous about my case, but he always took his time and answered all my questions. He was extremely professional and considerate about my needs. Highly recommend him.
Good price, very responsive, great outcome!
Highly recommended!
Mistakes made in youth can really have a hold over your personal and professional trajectory in life, making it difficult to move ahead. I am very appreciative of the services that Matt Fakhoury and his team offer; they were absolutely excellent. After reaching out to them, they have been supportive, communicative and up front with what I should expect. Matt even answered my emails while he was away out of state, showing his diligence to his clients and his name in this business. I have never felt more welcomed or had such excellent customer service from a law office. Each person in this office has made a positive impression; Colleen, Chloe and Vince have added to the help I was given through this process. I appreciate the level of confidence I gleaned from their knowledge and proceedings. If someone needed a recommendation for a law office, I would without hesitation recommend the Law Offices of M. Fakhoury.
I’ve never need a lawyer before, so I want sure where to start. Found Matt online and called, was after hours so no answer but he ended up calling me that night to discuss hiring him. He was very nice and I explained my situation, which could have ended up really bad for me. I was looking at a felony charge which could have ruined my career. He everything to me without talking at me, which put me at ease and made me feel confident that I was going to be ok. He was able to resolve my issues the very next day, no charges! He kept me informed every step of the way and even followed up with me after my case was closed. If need a lawyer again, which I hope I never will, I will be calling Matt for sure.
Quickly resolved traffic issues; super efficient and professional. Case was dismissed on first appearance.
I’m so glad I made the perfect choice by hiring Matt Fakhouri to handle the ticket which was the worst i ever received I expected to serve either jail or at least 5 days community service but thank god and to Matt I didn’t even appear in court charges were reduced to minimum again thank you Matt
I was referred by an Uber driver to Law Office. I was a bit sceptical at first but to my surprise , the service that I received was awesome. They were very attentive, professional and always communicated
They kept me informed every step of the way in my matter. I recommend them 100%
Matt Fakhoury is the best attorney!! I highly recommend him and his team. Just yesterday he beat my case & i was found not guilty! I will be recommending anyone i know to him!
Matt was excellent to work with. He was always very responsive and available, even outside normal hours, when necessary. The way he communicated was very succinct and direct, and just the type of attorney I wanted representing me. This guy is on top of his game and is very focused on client service. He genuinely took an interest to help get me the best possible outcome. I would recommend him to anyone in the NW suburbs who needs representation.
Matt & his team put me at ease and left no rock unturned. First time needing a lawyer and I couldn’t ask for a better service.
I was at court today with my BFF, I got to see Matt in action. He was hands down best attorney I had ever watched in person yet!! Not only that my girlfriend was found not guilty of her DUI, but also got out of (I think it was 6) tickets! After court was over, the cop came up & apologized to her to top it all off! Lol 😂
-Kamila McCormick
Matt has provided amazing service and is extremely responsive. He was very informative through the entire process and helped me to understand the complicated legal processes. He has also answered several questions that I’ve had after completing my case. He has gone above and beyond any expectations I had.
If your looking for the best attorney definitely go with Matt and his team. The minute you speak with Matt you can tell how sincere and how genuine he is willing to help you out. Trust me you won’t see this with other law firms. Matt and his team do work professionally and will keep you up to date in every step. He is one attorney that I’ll give an 100 percent recommendation.
My son got himself in trouble in Chicago in late 2019. After reading numerous reviews, I settled on the service of Matt Fakhoury. The experience lived up to his excellent reviews. After our first meeting, I felt that his knowledge and experience would serve my son’s interests well. Both his prior experience as a prosecutor and his positive attitude lead me to believe that he could do the job. He was able to get all charges dismissed after only two court dates. He then began the process of getting the arrest expunged. The pandemic set in and there were delays because of the pandemic. However, Matt’s office kept us updated whenever a change occurred. Additionally, Matt and his staff were always responsive to our needs and questions. We always heard back in a timely fashion. Matt not only got the charges dropped but he was able to have the arrest expunged. I would sincerely recommend Matt without reservation.
Very informative and high values doing right by others and not just out for the money.
I had questions and I got in-depth answers that eased my mind.
Would totally recommend !!!
Thank you so much Mr. Matt Fakhoury

Thank you Matt Fakhoury……. for helping me in matter that I didn’t realize was as serious as I thought . Your dedicated service is unmatched, thank you for breaking down everything in detail with simple explanations, the fact is not a lot of ppl in your profession have the ability nor the patience to walk ppl through things that they don’t understand. Which makes it a whole lot easier to trust and rely that you will do what need to be done in the best interest of the client . Thank you again… can’t wait to refer you to everyone I know . And hope that I never need you again …lol thanks Matt!!
Matt and his team are very responsive with anything you need quick to help and kept me up to date with my case. Thank you for all your help!!!

I have used them three times and all three times I couldn’t ask for anything more. You will always get a response to phone calls and emails promptly. The best thing about Matt is that he not only cares for you from a legal perspective, but genuinely cares for you personally. Thank you Matt, Catlin and Colleen!!!
People make mistakes… The price of such a mistake can be very high both emotionally and financially.
When your own financial stability and future is at stake, you cannot trust your case to the weak or inexperienced lawyer.
I was fortunate enough to hire a lawyer from the Law Offices of M. Fakhoury, LLC.
Caitlin Wilder, Attorney at Law, explained the best and worst case scenarios to me during our first meeting and guided me through the ‘legal jungle’. As a result, the most favorable outcome of the trial was achieved.
Caitlin, thank you so much for taking on my case.
I will keep your (your law firm) name just in case and will definitely recommend you to anyone who needs or will (God forbid) seek legal help.
Very fast, professional, I’m so glad I chose this service for my sealed record!!! Very Satisfied

Counselor Fahkoury and Counselor Wilder handled my case with aplomb. They told me like it was, with their knowledge of the Cook landscape, the laws involved, and the likely consequences. In the end my case was dismissed like it never happened. I have my freedom of movement again. It’s a good feeling.
Matt and his team were absolutely amazing. They were very on top of everything and was able to resolve my case in a timely manner. Matt is a great lawyer was able to get me the best possible resolution for the case. Highly recommend for any legal issues you may run into!

I just want to thank God for Colleen LeFevour who, when all other lawyers told me it would be a waste of time and money or too soon to expunge/seal my record, she made it happen. I cannot thank you enough. She never made any guarantees, but from the moment I met her, she made me believe she would go in there and do her best and she did it in great fashion. Thank you so much and I will be recommending you to any and everyone who could use your services.
I worked with Colleen and am very happy. All I can say is if you made a mistake, poor judgment and for years has weighed on your conscious call them. The fee is very reasonable, was treated with respect and my poor judgment has been removed. Thank you.

I’m thankful for the services of Matt Fakhoury. He kept me informed, conducted himself in a very professional manner, knows the law and the court system, and was personable in his service. I would use his services again if necessary and highly recommend him!
Matt, along with his office staff, were very professional and caring in their service with our son!! We very much appreciated Matt’s expertise in a difficult case with our son. It was uncertain if a case could be split, meaning no expungement. Matt made the expungement happen, we are so grateful to Matt and his wonderful staff! A huge relief for our family and son! Then an unknown DUI appeared, and he took care of getting this quickly dismissed. The communication was excellent! Staff informed us what would happen with compliance after the expungement. This was a big relief. I researched and interviewed many criminal defense attorneys before we decided on Matt. We wanted the very best for our son! We would highly recommend Matt and his office staff to anyone!!!
THEY ARE WONDERFUL AND LIFE SAVERS I GOT IMMEDIATE SERVICE FROM THEM AND NOW IM ABLE TO START MY CAREER
Matt was very professional and extremely responsive to our needs. He knew exactly what was needed being out of state and the time frame in which it could be completed. Highly recommended.
Absolutely one of the top attorneys I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Matt and his team by far exceeded expectations. The consult piece was dealt with 100% transparency. I would recommend to anyone.
Matthew Fakhoury was very reliable. Always on time and with Matthew, I knew I had someone in my corner that would fight for me. 10/10. 5 stars.

Matt and his colleague Chloe were very diligent, swift and professional in handling my situation. This included addressing all of my questions and concerns promptly. They made me feel very comfortable and confident that I was being represented by the most competent attorneys available
If I had to choose one word to describe my experience with Matt, it would be REMARKABLE. I feel incredibly lucky to have found him. His professionalism and attentiveness have gone far above and beyond any service I could have ever expected. He makes himself available, returning emails and phone calls within minutes; he is concrete and straight forward, helping set realistic expectations without giving false hope; and he is compassionate. I expected to be stressed through the process, but Matt held my hand until every one of my cases was expunged. He literally could not have made it an easier for me. In addition, he is highly respected by his peers, which only attests to his abilities. Because of Matt, I have been able to move forward with my life, and I am no longer stuck with the shadow of who I used to be. You can hire Matt with the confidence that he will do exactly as he promises.
I would like to thank Matt and his staff for the excellent work they do.
Attorney Matthew and Atty. Vincent are the REAL DEAL! you don’t really know what to expect when you hire attorney, but I believe that they were Sincere, Specific, Didn’t waste my time, Concerned and Very Professional! I give this Law Firm a 10PLUS!!!
I am an extremely happy client. Matt Fakhoury and his team changed my life. I was convicted of Felony burglary back in 1990 and had a few misdemeanors since,but nothing in the past 20 years. I work in the health care field and I had reached a glass ceiling in my profession so I decided to further my career. While completing the requirements to be accepted to a college program I was denied because of my background. I contacted Attorney Stacy and she handled everything over the phone and via email. I was informed every step of the way. The process took about 10 months but it was all worth it. I was recently accepted to the same program that denied me last year. Thanks to Matt Fakhoury my future is Extremely Bright! I recommend Matt to anyone needing help with expungement or sealing of criminal records.
Matt is a great attorney! I was given on 2nd chance probation that was terminated with satisfactory. I had to wait 3 years to seal this from my record. I met Matt and he explained me that there is a law if you get a degree or certification/ education during your probation, court will allow you to seal the record earlier than 3 years. Sure enough, the judge just granted the seal because of Matt and his knowledge. Thank you Matt!
Matt and his associates have a deep understanding of Illinois expungement law, and helped advise me on the specifics in the compiled statutes to so that I could petition the courts for sealing and expunging my entire adult record – the results were even better than initially expected, and because of XpungeChicago, I have a completely clean record and no more worry about my past impacting my future!
SEAMLESS describes it all. Matt Fakhoury and XPUNGE Chicago could not have made it any easier for me to continue on a new path & and be able to be part of America’s workforce. I simply hired and they did ALL THE WORK FOR ME! My kinda slice of pie.
Mr. Fakhoury is very professional lawyer. Reasonable price, extremely helpful and easy to reach. Highly recommended.
Matt is a very great lawyer, and always made time to respond to emails and take calls. Very dedicated, and very happy with the service.
Matt is unbelievable at what he does. The best I’ve worked with so far. Very responsive, professional and caring. Always up to speed on what to do and what’s going on. Very easy to work with and his pricing is better than any. My lawyer for life! Worth every penny. Also has a great team!
I can’t say enough about how painless and great the process was, working with Matt and his team. Not only did they get me the results I wanted for my criminal record sealing case, but they were responsive, professional, easy to work with, and worth every penny. He answered every question I had in a timely and direct manner, was straight with me on my chances of having my petition granted, and was able to represent me from out of state without any issues. I would highly recommend his services.
Matt is a very good lawyer, and always made time to respond to emails and take calls. Very professional, and very happy with the service.
I was looking for an expungement lawyer when I found Mr. Fakhoury on avvo. He had excellent reviews and specialized in what I needed. He and his associate had good communication throughout the process, and the pricing seemed fair. They set everything up, and got me a full expungement in the end. Job well done.
Matt is the best attorney I have ever worked with. I made an inquiry online and he contacted me quickly to discuss my case. He is very professional and kept me informed at every step of the process. I was very nervous and he reassured me that I didn’t have to be. He won the case and I’m so happy I chose him to represent me. I highly recommend him!
Very professional and on top of things. I’d definitely recommend their services!
He did a great job with our case, we’re really happy!!! Thank You!!!
Extraordinary attorney! His professionalism, knowledge and kindness makes him an absolute pleasure to work with!
My experience with Matt was great. He really is a true professional. He works fast and gets things done, not much more you can ask for. I would definitely recommend his services to anyone.
Matt Fakhoury services was beyond exceptional. He resolve my issue in a timely manner with positive results that change my life forever. I’m truly grateful for his expertise and definitely would recommend his services without a doubt.
The Law Offices of Matt Fakhoury provided me with excellent service. I had 7 felonies that all needed to be sealed and/or expunged and the team there successfully took care of every one of them. I had cases in 3 different districts and they had no problem handling all of them. They even expedited two of the three districts hearings for me. Matt and/or someone from his team constantly kept me updated with proceedings, court dates, and any relevant information. In addition to all of that he was even able to get an old warrant thrown out without me even having to make an appearance in court. This is a top notch team and worth every penny. Today was my final court appearance and despite objections from the prosecution we still managed to get everything taken care of. Thank you Matt, Stacy, and everyone else that worked so hard on my cases!!
After researching various attorneys, Matt Fakhoury was the clear choice to assist with my fathers’ cases because this is an area of specialization and because of his responsiveness. He is professional and great with communicating the timeline and other expectations. The process went smoothly with timely communications/updates along the way. His associate attorney, Chloe Schor, was also responsive and answered all our questions which helped put us at ease as the court date approached. Everything was done efficiently and Mr. Fakhoury was copied on everything so we knew he had oversight of the case which we appreciated along with the attentiveness and care they both showed in this matter. We received a reminder about the court date and on the day of the petition hearing, Ms. Schor greeted us warmly and went over what was to be expected. Our win in court on 6 cases spoke to their knowledge and due diligence and we highly recommend him.
Reasonable charges for services. Great attorney. He was always in contact with me and was always optimistic.
I contacted Mr Fakhoury to work on 3 cases for me and to get then sealed. He was very clear in explaining how the process works and what to expect. Price was fair for the service. So far he has been amazing, in that he already got one case sealed and is working on the rest. I feel very confident in recommending his services to all, as he does exactly what he tells you he will do. Throughout the whole process it has been very easy to communicate with him and his office and they have sent me numerous updates before I even requested any!!!
I hired Matt to take care of expunging something from my record. I had waited nearly 20 years to take care of this because I was nervous of the process. When I reached out to Matt I could instantly tell he cared and would bend over backwards to meet some of my weird requests. Highly recommend him!
Matt is the consummate professional. I felt confident in him from the first phone call. He was very responsive and honest. I felt taken care of every step of the way. You cannot go wrong hiring this guy!
I was worried my situation wouldn’t work out and it did!! I’m very satisfied with this law firm. Matt gave me a reasonable price, always replied to my emails or phone calls. He was also right on the time frame everything would be taken care of. He basically changed my life!! I am so happy!! Thank you again!
I hired Mr Fakhoury to handle my expungement case after becoming frustrated with my previous legal representation. Within less than two months Mr Fakhoury was able to move up my court date from April to January, file all pertinent documents and get my charge of 20 years expunged. As my case was a misdemeanor it should have been a simple legal issue- however since the case was 20 years old and some of the pertinent information was missing – it ended up to be more complicated. Mr Fakhoury was able to get all the information that he needed to get the case heard and expunged and was available to answer questions any time that I had them. In addition, considering his skill and background in law- his fees are incredibly reasonable for the quality of legal representation he provides. I would recommend Mr. Fakhoury to anyone needing legal representation within the Illinois Court System.
I contacted Matt Fakhoury regarding possibly sealing my past records. Matt went above and beyond and was, in fact, able to expunge some all together and seal the one I needed. He was VERY responsive and handled EVERYTHING perfectly! Thank you for all your help!!!
I contacted Matt through his website for a consultation and he got back to me within a few days. I wanted some cases sealed from my driving record. His reviews are completely authentic- once I reviewed my information, he was available, communicated back and forth so fast, and I never had to step foot in court. The process was done honestly about possible outcomes, and simple. I would whole-heartedly recommend Matt Fakhoury to anyone seeking assistance for these matters!!!
Great attorney, I live in a different state than where my record was in. He handled everything smoothly and gave me information I was unaware of about my case. Very thorough, very professional. Highly recommended.
Matt Fakhoury and his team are consummate professionals. He recently handled four expungement/sealing cases of varying degrees of severity and delivered positive results for all four. Matt and Stacy Komers treated me with the upmost respect and responded to all my inquiries expediently and courteously. He was transparent and fair with his pricing. After losing several vocational opportunities due to previous criminal matters I contacted Matt—and I’m glad I did. Matt Fakhoury and his firm put my life back on track, I highly recommend him for any legal matters.
Matthew Fakhoury is a great lawyer and an honest, down to earth professional. He helped me expunge a past arrest that I wanted off my record. It wasn’t a big deal to him, but it was to me, and he was very patient and understanding with my concerns. I had inquired about the possibility of expediting the process a little bit, which would have cost more money. While Matt was willing to do it, he also reassured me that it wasn’t necessary, and that I should save my money. Everything worked out exactly as he said it would, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and Matt’s follow through. I’m now in an Ivy League school pursuing my dreams, and will never have to worry about this again.
The Matt Fakhoury law firm delivered multiple expungements dating 2 decades ago, with minimal involvement and reasonable cost. Highly recommend his services.
Matt was hands down the best attorney I’ve ever worked with. He is extremely responsive every step of the way and goes above and beyond with every aspect.
I highly recommend Mr. Fakhoury, as he is very efficient and professional. He answered all my questions and gave me much confidence in my case.
I searched to find a law firm in the Chicago area for expunging several arrests from 15+ years ago. When I talked with Mr. Fakhoury’s staff for the first time I felt I chose the best law firm for my expungements and although I live out of state, and had never met his staff, I know I made the right choice. They walked me through everything over the phone and e-mails. Mr. Fakhoury and staff made sure that my expungement needs were expedited and always kept in touch albeit in another state making sure all paperwork was correctly filed and processed. Spot on ! Am very satisfied with the results from the Law firm of Fakhoury and recommend him and his firm to anyone needing expugement services.
I hired Matt to resolve 2 criminal cases from many many years ago. It was something that always bothered me knowing there was a “record” floating around out there. I found Matt online and he handled both cases flawlessly – both were fully expunged. Matt kept me posted throughout the process and was always responsive within the day. I literally sleep better knowing this has been resolved. Matt was affordable, knowledgeable, and generous with his time in explaining things. Overall excellent experience.
I had some juvenile offenses on my record which were keeping me from getting a job. I hired two other reputable lawyers and they ended up wasting 4 months of my time. The free consultation Matt gave me was more helpful than what I was paying the other lawyers for so I hired him and I am happy to say I can now work in my chosen career field.
I am very happy with Matt Fakhoury’s services. I really needed to get an expungement in order to make crucial career moves. Matt gave me the advice that I needed and help to pave my way to a new start. It doesn’t matter who you are, or what you did in the past. Give yourself another chance, call Matt, and i’m sure he will give you the help you need.
I highly recommend Mr. Fakhoury. I live out of state, and he took care of everything for me, as well as keeping me informed and up to date. I’m thankful I found him!
Attorney Matt Fakhoury, was very professional and quick. He was able to help my husband a lot with a seal. He explains everything you need to know very well. Thank you again for everything, I highly recommend him.
Thank you again Matt for your Help. Thank you for your expedient help and actually explaining everything. you are one of the best and I highly recommend you.
Matt did an excellent job. Very knowledgeable and professional, always willing to help, and gives great advice. Also responsible and reliable, and follows through on everything he says.
After doing some research on a variety of expungement attorneys I decided to contact the office of Matt Fakhoury. It was evident immediately that he was well versed and experienced in this aspect of law. He was professional, polite, and very quick to return any call….within minutes. My cases were handled quickly and efficiently with any status updates or information communicated immediately. Very well priced for the service received and the value added to my life. Highly recommended.
I just can not say how happy that I came across Matt Fakhoury. After a couple failed attempts to get a record expunged for almost 10 years, I somewhat gave up hope. When I came across his website and spoke with Mr. Fakhoury I knew I wanted to take this risk. He was prompt, professional and kept me informed throughout the entire process. Just today my petition was granted and I can finally put what happened almost 10 years ago behind me once and for all. With Matt you’re getting an attorney who will not only give you top notch service but you will also be getting someone who genuinely cares about your case. I hope I don’t get into anymore legal trouble in the future but if I do, I have his law office’s number on speed dial just in case.
Mr. Fakhoury did an excellent job with my expungement. He was timely, efficient, well-organized, and kept great communication. What I liked the most was his prompt email responses and explanations regarding the forthcoming steps in the process of my expungement. Great work.
Matt handled our case without any problems. Returned calls or email in a very timely fashion. Continually kept in contact with us, and all this handled while in different states. Very professional. Would definitely recommend.
Matt was very professional and a timely Godsend. His expertise was a calming factor in my decision to use his legal services.
I worked with Matt to handle a couple misdemeanor cases I needed to get expunged from my record. He was very good about communicating the process and all of the steps involved. Based on the expectations I had, I feel that Matt did an excellent job and held up his end of the bargain. All cases were expunged from my record and I am happy with his work.
I hired Matt bc I had multiple cases in multiple districts in the surrounding area. He got all of them sealed and we were done within a few months. Highly recommended Matt and his staff to anyone.
Very responsive to any questions and detail specific! Great with communicating. Although the State’s Attorney Office objected to my seal petition, they had no objection at the hearing where Mr. Fakhoury presented my case.
Mr. Fakhoury was more than professional he was efficient. His rates are reasonable and he continued to work with me to resolve my issue even when the process was turbulent. I felt supported and he explained all questions that I had. He is definitely the person to go to deal with these types of issues.
After obtaining two additional estimates from different firms, I ultimately hired Matt Fakhoury for his services and couldn’t have been more satisfied. Immediately after a quick consultation, I was connected directly to Matt and began the process. His timely correspondence and clear communication are absolutely commendable. With Matt’s help, each step will be completed thoroughly & professionally and leave you with relatively little to worry about. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for exceptional representation.
Matt and his firm handled my cases excellently. No complaints. They were very thorough and helped me every step of the way. I would absolutely use them again.
I was referred to Matt by one of his colleagues. Matt was very helpful and understanding. Did a great job of walking me through the process and achieving the results that I was looking for.
Great help with my case, quick and easy. Matt was easy to contact and responded to all my questions. Thanks.
Had I known this process was painless and smooth, I would have taken care of business many years ago. Prior to connecting with Matt Fakhoury, I tried to work at a hospital, but to my surprise I was informed by human resources that I am unable to move forward in the hiring process. Simply because of an arrest that occurred nearly 12 years. The details do not matter, but know this – I was certainly in great hands with Matt. Not only is Matt is respectful, he’s easy to talk to without complicated legal jargon and most importantly nonjudgmental. Matt communicated when necessary (no news, is good news), and every interaction was informative. Im not gaining anything from leaving this excellent review (financial kickback etc.), other than gratitude. I encourage everyone to check their background history and clear it if applicable for the following reasons (1) ensure nothing isn’t there that doesn’t belong (2) to have a piece of mind (3) eliminate road blocks with potential employer’s. Also, be aware that some if not most healthcare organizations that conducts fingerprinting as part of their interview process still can access sealed and expunged records. With that said, conduct your own research regarding state laws in addition to reaching out to credible sources such as attorneys and court systems. I suggest Mr. Fakhoury of course. Thank you Matt Fakhoury and good luck to you all.
Mr. Fakhoury is one of the best criminal defense lawyers in the Chicago area, and he has helped me before by referring me to an immigration lawyer which helped me a lot and managed to expunge my record on a felony without any hassle. Dealing with him is easy and he is a very respectful person and lawyer.
Matt is awesome! Matt was incredibly responsive every step of the way. He made us feel like we were his only client and was very attentive. In addition, his level of experience and professionalism is well respected by prosecutors as evidenced in the punishment received. We felt like Matt truly was by our side throughout the whole process. We highly recommend Matt to anyone facing legal trouble that requires expunging. Thank you, Matt for everything
I hired Mr Fakhoury to expunge a theft arrest record from 30 years ago. He was honest, professional, easy to reach and was able to obtain the expungement quickly. I would recommend him without hesitation.
I want to thank Matt Fakhoury for the work he did to expunge my record. He was very responsive, efficient and completed the work very quickly.
I called Matt with a request to look into expunging some cases for me. His office relayed my message and Matt called back within the hour. He took down my information and clearly explained the process to me. He acted swiftly and was very accurate with his timelines. I recommend and will use him in the future if needed.
I would like to thank Mr. Fakhoury for his great and super fast work. I am so grateful and will always recommend him.
Matt did a great job of setting and explaining expectations for me and then following through on them and being available when I reached out to him. I hope I don’t need his services in the future, but if I do, I’ll contact him and recommend Matt to others.
Only word to describe my Experience is: PERFECT. Very informative from initial contact until outcome of court date. Very efficient and gets the exact results he says he will. Very confident in Matt’s abilities and respect all his hard work. Thank you for being a man of your word
One of the best attorneys around. Matt Fakhoury gets the job done!!! I was able to get my records sealed because of him. I highly recommend him.
I live out of state and found Matt online after researching several expungement attorneys in the Chicago area. Matt returned my phone call the same day and took his time to explain the process and costs involved in expunging my record. From the moment I hired Matt, he was available to answer my questions and promptly addressed all of my concerns. Matt kept me updated every step of the way, both via email and phone, and when the district attorney requested in person hearing Matt didn’t charge me extra for appearing in court. I highly recommend Matt to anyone who’s looking to seal or expunge his criminal record. He’s not only an expert in his field and reliable as an attorney but also respectful and honest as a person.
You were amazing! I cannot thank you enough for your professionalism and prompt attention to my case. I would recommend you to anyone.
I just was able to get three criminal cases expunged from my record. I can finally move on from some mistakes I made as a youth. Matt made this process extremely easy and pleasant. He is very professional, and knowledgeable. Most of all he made himself very accessible through every step of the expungement process. I even had cases that were not local and he was able to connect to lawyers that were in that county and handle those cases for me. I am extremely pleased with the services he provided and and would highly recommend him to anybody trying to clear their record.
I cannot compare Mr. Matt Fakhoury to other lawyers, as he is the first lawyer I worked with, but I know quality service when I see and experience it. I have never been in a situation in any degree such as the one a few months ago, but Matt was assuring, informative, trustworthy, meticulous, and patient with me during the process. I was going through a rough time coping with my situation, but each time I spoke with Matt via email or phone, he was very optimistic and reassuring which helped me sleep at night; it’s great to see such an amazing personality and sincerity from someone of his stature. Mr. Fakhoury finished all the paperwork immediately and was very responsive with emails, phone calls, and last minute meetings. The outcome of my case (I was arrested and appointed a local ordinance ticket for solicitation) was dismissed yesterday and is in the process of being expunged even after pleading guilty the day of my arrest. Overall, Mr. Fakhoury is someone you want to have on your side when stepping into a courthouse. He is very knowledgeable, easy to work with, and strives for the best outcome for your case. Thank you again Matt for all that you have done and continue to do. Words will never express my gratitude for your work and patience with me.
I was arrested several times five years ago. Matt Fakhoury helped my seal my cases, and was reasonably priced. He sealed my burglary arrest, and my theft cases. Helping change my life.
I tried to expunge my records by utilizing a cheaper online service. Five months and a thousand dollars later they informed me that they couldn’t expunge my records. I was extremely disappointed. But I decided to contact a local attorney. While researching for and attorney, I stumbled into Mr. Fakhoury’s name (website) and I am so glad I did. He gathered all my information, called me right back, explained my options in details, he was very responsive to all my emails, I never felt as if I was bothering him and within a month he had both of my records expunged. He was polite and professional. I hope I would never need his services again but I will sure recommend anyone in need of these types of services to go to him. He means business, he is extraordinary at what he does, and the price was affordable.
At the first moment that I talked to Matt on the phone, I could tell he was a straight forward no BS kind of guy not willing to just tell you what you wanted to hear just to make a buck. He was/is very professional, and he was quick to answer any possible questions and status updates on my case via phone or email anytime day or night and even on weekends. He never became frustrated with me no matter questions or emails I sent. He handled my case even better and faster than I expected with great success. I couldn’t recommend him more, it was a very pleasant experience through a stressful situation from start to finish.
Mr. Fakhoury did an exceptional overall job with handling my traffic case a few months ago. Matt was referred to me by a known personal injury attorney who stated Mr. Fakhoury was one of the best in the business. With what seemed to be an easy case to get dismissed, it was just the opposite. I had two traffic tickets which were pinned on me by an individual who blamed me for an accident. There was a mishap in the beginning of the hearing which lead to a quick judge trial after all other cases were done with. Matt was able to stay focused and I felt like he actually cared about the outcome, which ment a lot. After about a 45-1hr trial the case was dismissed and I was very pleased. The price I paid Matt is nothing compared to the work he accomplished in such little time. If I had to do it again I wouldn’t want anyone else representing me when it comes to traffic court. The man is a genius. He puts his mouth where the money is.
Matt makes you feel comfortable from the beginning and not like some conniving lawyers, who look to take advantage of people’s mistakes. He’s a genuine individual who was looking out for my best interests from the beginning. He cut me break in his initial price based on my situation and what he knew he could do. I hired Matt in hopes that he would get my “driving while suspended” charge dismissed and he did just that. He was specific with what I needed to do on my end and what he would do on his end. He made no promises, but instead set realistic goals and possible outcomes. The kicker is I wasn’t able to see Matt at work due to unforeseen circumstances that made me miss court. Even though I created a hurdle for my situation, Matt was able to come out of the situation unscathed. For that I’m thankful for Matt and Im happy that I was able to find him. Matt is a confident, intelligent, and charismatic individual. Mr. Fakhoury truly is one of one and I can’t thank him enough for his service. I hope I never have to use a lawyer again, but I’ll be sure to call Matt if a situation arises.
Couldn’t be more thankful for the help that this great attorney offered! I almost had to face very serious consequences for what at the time was a simple and under informed mistake. Matt understood things from my perspective and knew how to make things right. I am now able to carry on with college and have no more worries of legal problems! 10/10 would recommend!!
I heard Matt’s ad at the gym & decided to give him a try. Even though all the other lawyers I spoke with said I couldn’t get my record sealed. Matt was super easy to work with & so worth it! Thanks to Matt I now have my record sealed & won’t be stressed out trying to look for an apartment.
I don’t give an A++++++++ rating very often, but Mr. Fakhoury certainly deserves it. He is professional, courteous and takes a genuine interest in his clients. I would never hesitate to refer or use Mr. Fakhoury in the future. Thank you, Mr. Fakhoury, for a job well done!
Matt could not have been more professional, and effective at expunging 2 events in my past. I cannot say enough good things about him. One of my expungements the state objected to. Matt explain the situation clearly and while I considered giving up, He reassured me of his intentions to succeed. I calmed down. As i waited for my hearing in the courtroom, He was upfront working his legal craft. 90 people were waiting for a hearing. I was called first. As I approached the bench to answer some potential difficult questions before the judge, Matt said to me quietly, the state has granted your expungement. The only thing the judge asked me was my name. Outside the courtroom he explained how he did it without even the required hearing. He quickly took advantage of the prosecutors missteps, along with his long term association with the courtroom. And I quote him ” Like a good Lawyer should, I was prepared in every way, the prosecutors were not” Fantastic! Thank you so much Matt.
Working with Matt made a difficult situation go smoothly. He is outstanding in court and professional in his office and all other communications.
The bottom line when dealing with any business or professional is whether or not you would refer them to a loved one or close friend. In terms of my personal dealings with Matt Fakhoury as my attorney; that answer is a resounding yes. I chose Matt to represent me in a recent DUI case. I had a completely clean record and made a onetime mistake with my actions. However, I do need my car for my career and losing my license would put my livelihood at risk. Needless to say, I put all of my trust in Matt to defend me in this case. He was honest, direct, fast to respond and aggressive at settling things in a timely manner. Clearly Matt was quite experienced with handling issues like mine. Fortunately the outcome of my case well exceeded my expectations. I can’t thank Matt enough for what he did. I have already given several people close to me Matt’s contact information to save in their phones in case of an unfortunate incident. I can assure you that you will have no regrets by hiring Matt Fakhoury as your attorney.
If you want something done and done fast, I would recommend Matt. Other lawyers didn’t follow up with phone calls and seem to be a great hassle to get a hold of. Matt was quick and professional and got it done right the first time.
Mr. Fakhoury is an excellent communicator and is very straight forward. He gave me realistic expectations and followed through with everything he said he could do. He is very knowledgeable and consistent in his process. He made me feel comfortable and walked me through every step of the way.
Matt Fakhoury demonstrated every aspect of legal representation/assistance that I could have asked for. He was extremely knowledgeable about the details pertaining to my case and also carries himself in an extremely professional way. He does his job in a manner that is comforting, without giving false hope, but still shows passionate confidence when appropriate. His rates were extremely reasonable and has given me reason to believe he is amongst the top criminal lawyers in the Chicagoland area.
Thank you! You were very professional and did what you promised. Matt did a great job for me. He kept me exceptions in line with what was doable and get me everything he promised me. I would recommend him 100%. Thanks again!
I received very fast and efficient service from Mr. Fakhoury. He was very helpful throughout the entire process of resolving my legal issue and provided answers to my concerns very quickly. He is very knowledgeable about the expungement process in Illinois and was able to successfully obtain an expungement from the court within three months for me. He was very honest and straightforward with me about my case from the beginning. I would highly recommend him for your legal needs.
I am very impressed with Matt and will recommend him to anyone I know! The whole process was amazing he explained everything and made it so easy for me . Thanks to Matt I have fresh start with a clean record.
I have a lot to deal with in my personal life, not including all the stress the case gave me. Yet, Matt assure me that he would do everything possible to win the case. Which he did, the entire duration of the case Matt would continuously support me and always helped me feel comfortable and secure about the case. After months of waiting and emotional turmoil, we stepped into the final court hearing. Matt was relentless and swift with his defense actions. I was so happy to have hired him and I will continue to hold on to his card for friends and family if ever needed. Thanks Matt
Matt did an amazing job on my matter. In addition to being highly knowledgeable, he has a great “bedside manner” and is always reachable — even late evenings and weekends. In my experience, that combination of attributes is rare. He achieved a great result for me — reducing the charge to reckless driving even with breath test results and admissions. I can’t recommend him highly enough.
We had hired Matt for a serious matter for a family member. Since our first phone call, Matt was very thorough in explaining the charges and our options. When we met him person at his office he was extremely professional and understanding of the situation. He helped us guided through the system. He worked really hard to get us a very good outcome. Matt kept us posted through out the process. We are grateful for his services.
Matt was professional and understood the sensitivity of this situation and made sure I was comfortable, and understood the process. Matt had given me an estimated timetable of when this would be resolved and fortunately several weeks later it was over. I would definitely recommend Matt not only for his professionalism, and honesty, but for having the best rates also!
I was very happy with the work that was done by Mr. Fakhoury. He handled the case with professionalism and made me feel very comfortable with what was expected of me during the case and the court proceeding. Because I was very tense and curious about my case, he called me on many occasions to update me on where we are and stuff. Matt is very aggressive in the court room and he worked as a state prosecutor in the court. So, he knows in and outs very well.
Matt provided most competent and thorough legal representation-two qualities I wouldn’t always associate with attorneys. He not only efficiently filed my cases but also regularly communicated with me through the process and was always very reachable when I had a question.
Would definitely recommend him to others needing his specific areas of expertise as he and his firm seem willing to go to any length to ensure the client is satisfied and the their cases are suitably resolved.
Overall a solid experience. Matt was professional, helpful, and covered all the bases.
Matt did an excellent job with my case. This was my first time needing a lawyer with the exception of getting off a traffic ticket, and I am new to the Chicago area. Matt came highly recommended by his peers (I had called a Cook County-only attorney and my case was in Lake County) and from the get-go he was very informative and kept me involved. He helped settle some of my nerves and got me the absolute best case scenario ruling. I couldn’t have been happier and I felt that he went above and beyond what was necessary because he genuinely cared what happened to me. Definitely trust him and go with him if you need the best possible representation.
Matt has played a large role in our life in the past year. We had a business issue with a customer that ended up in criminal courts in Illinois. This was our first time having any interaction with the law. Mortified, confused and financially strapped Matt held our hands, fought hard for us, and most of all believed in us. Above it all we could reach him and get a response at 4 am on a Sunday morning if needed. He also worked with us according to our financial constraints. You can certainly put your trust in him to get you through your legal battles. He knows the law, he will do what’s right and he treats you like a human being!
Matt defended me in a Domestic Battery case. From the beginning, he was honest, open and believed in my innocence and character. He was responsive and very connected in the Rolling Meadows court system. His demeanor was professional and thorough. The outcome was a dismissal and Matt will be handling the expungement from this point as I look forward to having my name and record completely cleared. I would highly recommend Matt as a superior defense attorney to anyone.
YOU ARE AWESOME! We are so thankful to God for showing our family the way toward you, Matt. HE knew we needed all that you are, to help our son. Thank you from the bottom of our Cajun hearts. We are happy! You made a huge difference in our family’s life today. Go look in the mirror and hug yourself, from us.
I hired Matt to expunge a retail theft and drivers license suspension misdemeanor off my record. I definitely waited to long to get this off my record thinking it will be a long and confusing process. But I am glad to have had Matt work on my case. He was very helpful and made the process feel like a breeze. He explained the process and made everything clear for me. It took exactly the 3 months time he said it would. I was so pleased to have received my petition for expungement approved on Christmas Eve. Thank you very much Matt.
I contacted Mr. Fakhoury after going to court with another lawyer on an aggravated speeding violation. He was kind, diligent and spoke in terms I could understand regarding my violation and its consequences. His professional manner in court helped me tremendously. Not only did he change my court date to benefit my holiday travel plans, he also managed to get my case reduced far beyond what I thought would be possible. He is respected and admired and I am so thankful for his services. Without his help, I would have been charged with serious penalties. If you are looking for someone who you know you can trust and rely on, Mr. Fakhoury is your go-to man. I am ever grateful for his talents for the law.
I am very pleased with the service Mr. Fakhoury and his team provides. Quick, efficient and very knowledgeable as it should be. Would recommend Mr. Fakhoury to anyone who is looking for a quick successful outcome which he provides.
Mr. Fakhoury represented me on an alleged DV case. The case itself was bogus from the beginning. Even with false reports and lying on the stand Matt was still able to fight and get me a Not Guilt. Matt was extremely responsive regardless of the time of day. He kept me in the loop at all times and explained what was going on. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a Criminal Defense Lawyer.
I am very pleased with Mr. Fakhoury’s work and the overall outcome. Not only was he able to expunge all the cases off my record but it was done in a very swift professional matter. Mr. Fakhoury is a person you can truly depend on. I would highly recommend Mr. Fakhoury to anyone who is looking to start fresh and put past mistakes behind them. In my case he exceeded my expectations.
The representation and advice by Matt was exceptional, very professional. I was very satisfied with the outcome. It was even better than I expected. I highly recommend anyone who needs legal help to contact Mr. Fakhoury.
Thank you Matt – You saved my life and the life of my family. I was charged with my 2nd DUI in Chicago and Matt took the case to trial and won. I have my life and my license back!
I called Matt on Saturday night expecting to get his office voicemail. Instead it was his work cell and he answered on the second ring. I asked about expungement of a juvenile record and he took my name and number, promising to call me Monday. He called me Monday afternoon with all the answers to my questions! Free consultation and everything. He was nice and easy to talk to- I trust him completely with my information. I highly recommend him to anyone that asks me for a lawyer!
I live in Los Angeles so my looming court dates in Chicago presented practical and financial hardship. I interviewed a few attorneys by phone and Matt immediately stood out as the best. He did not disappoint. Working on a tight time schedule, Matt got my case dismissed without me ever having to step foot in the courtroom. He is knowledgeable, professional and well-connected. I highly recommend him.
Responsiveness is the most important attribute a lawyer can display to a client. Matt was responsive and kept me posted on relevant changes to my case.
The representation, advice, and guidance by Matt was exceptional. Very professional and cares for your best sake. I knew from the time I talked to him on the phone that he was the real deal and felt he was truly a great person. Helped ease my thoughts and feelings until my case was heard, and was satisfied with the outcome. It was even better than I expected. If you are ever in need of legal advice as everyone’s case is different, you’re best bet is to reach out to Matt and his team!
I strongly recommend Mr. Matt Fakhoury. He is an outstanding lawyer, as responsive and professional as they come. With out a doubt, if not for him I would be in a nightmare situation. Thanks to Matt Fakhoury, that potential nightmare, is simply just a life lesson.
I hired Matt after getting into some serious trouble. I work in an accounting firm and was arrested for possession of controlled substance (approx 2.7 gr) which is a Class 4 felony. Having a clean background , and a good job this was a serious charge. I called Matt, and he explained what he would try to do, given my background. When court came around, I could over hear states attorney say she didn’t want to offer drug class, but proceed. Matt talked to the supervising states attorney, and got me drug class. This is 2 hours a day , for four Saturdays, then the case is dismissed . After that I can expunge my record. I shouldn’t of even qualified for this, but Matt got me into this program, and literally got my life back. As a former states attorney he has great knowledge of the system, is very responsive, and really works with you. This was the first (and will be the last) I need to hire an attorney for criminal offense, but I would definitely recommend him.
I would first off like to give all my thanks to Mr. Fakhoury. I have dealt with a couple of lawyers in my past and I absolutely did not get the kind of help that I received from Mr. Fakhoury. Throughout my expungement process i was frequently updated on the status of my expungement and always informed on what was going on. At a time where I should have been stressing out I felt calm, and also confident in Mr. Fakhoury. Mr. Fakoury expunged not one but four of my cases in a timely manner. I can honestly say I had an enjoyable experience throughout this process, and I highly recommend anyone who needs legal help to contact Mr. Fakhoury. Thank you again for helping me get a second chance to better my future!
The only mistake I made with my case was not hiring Matt from the beginning! With a history as an ex-prosecutor for Cook County, as well as a highly esteemed Professor at DePaul University his knowledge in the field of Law is immaculate. Matt is incredibly talented and an expert when it comes to the Art of Negotiation. I hired Matt 1 year ago Jan 25, 2012. I was charged with possession, transportation, and intent to distribute schedule 1 & 2 narcotics/stimulants. Which came out to about 3+ Class X felonies. As you can see, I was looking at some serious jail time, at least 7 years. Matt was committed to my case, professional at all times and connected with all the right people. He handled my case with the utmost integrity.
I received 2 years of probation (expungable), which is practically a miracle in many cases like mine!
Thank Matt!
Matt Fakhoury is a great attorney. Very knowledgeable, great office and staff as well. Got my case dismissed — what a relief. Would definitely recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney.
I hired him two days ago and he got my case dismissed today. My case was no walk in the park. Fast, efficient, and to the point.
