I was handling a lawsuit on my own and it was hopeless. The other lawyer tried to dismiss the case. Attorney Steven Gleason agreed to represent me and he kept it going and got me money. I would not have gotten anything if it was not for Mr. Gleason. He was very patient and kind. After he got involved, the case ended fast and I am very happy with the outcome. The day we met I knew he was a God send. I keep his card on me and talk about the good work he did for me to customers and friends. Thank you.

We were in need of a lawyer after our car accident. We had asked a co-worker if they knew of anyone that could help us with our case and they recommended Steven Gleason. Right from the start I knew we had made the right decision to have Mr. Gleason on our side. During such a traumatic time in our lives, Mr. Gleason made us feel comfortable throughout. He was so knowledgeable and straightforward with us from the beginning. He worked so hard on our case and we received everything he had hoped we would. I have been recommending Mr. Gleason ever since to family and friends.

I was referred to Steven Gleason through another attorney. From our first meeting, he was very compassionate and understanding. He took care of everything and let me focus on healing from my accident. Throughout the process, he kept me updated and he allowed me to do almost everything electronically, which was very helpful and convenient. He definitely had my best interest at heart. I am very please with the outcome of my case and I would recommend Steven Gleason to anyone who is dealing with a personal injury case.

He has fought against the insurance companies all the way to the Illinois Appellate Courts in the pursuit of justice for his clients. You can count on Steven M. Gleason to fight for you and your rights.
