Thank you so very much for helping us to come to a settlement after my husbands battle with Legionaries’ disease. We are very happy that our nephew advised us to use your services. We cannot say enough about the time, expertise, effort and understanding that you have given us in our very difficult time. The benefit of the settlement is helping us to enjoy many more years together. We would highly praise and recommend you to anyone that asked.
Marc Wites really helped me! Several other lawyers refused to take my case, and the one that did gave up on me. Marc and his firm took my case, and conducted a full and thorough investigation. When they discovered that the other side withheld evidence, Marc pursued an appeal, which we won. In the end, Marc got me a great settlement. I am indebted to him.
We have known Marc Wites ever since he began practicing. He has helped my family and I with a wide variety of legal questions and problems. He attends to every detail and always calls back. We have found his feedback to be fair and helpful and his judgment always solid and sound. He never pushes for a legal action unless he believes it is justifiable. He is as honest as they come and we trust him completely. We recommend his work without hesitation.
Mr. Wites accepted my case when other lawyers would not. He never promised what he couldn't deliver. He was realistic, upfront and honest. He actually returns phone calls. And he is willing to explain the legal process and to take time to answer questions. I would definitely contact Mr. Wites if I ever needed a lawyer again.
I reticently had the need for an attorney. I certainly felt more at ease making my way through my legal matters with Marc on my side. He had the drive and integrity required to drive the matter to a successful conclusion. He provided me with outstanding counsel. Everyone should have a lawyer like Marc on their side.
Thank you for all you have done for our families, after the tragic deaths of our children. You were always available to answer questions on the phone, travel to Illinois and visit when we were unable to attend proceedings. Your professionalism was impeccable. Always prepared above and beyond, thru circuit and appellate courts. I will not hesitate to call upon your firm.
I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude to you for all the care and concern you have shown me and for working tirelessly to ensure that the law worked in my favor. I was so blessed to have you as my lawyer. Thank you for a great outcome. I will be forever thankful.
If I could give this firm 10 stars in a 5 star rating system I would. Attorneys Marc Wites and Thomas Rogers are perspicacious when it comes to representing their clients. It’s been a lengthy process but well worth the time and effort. Their knowledge in law is astronomical. I highly recommend them due to the fact that they will fight for you until the very end. If you need great attorneys to represent you, look no further and choose this firm.
Marc Wites has provided legal advice and guidance during a difficult situation. I found him to be experienced, responsive, knowledgable and honest. While working with Marc, I felt as though my situation was in adept and trustworthy hands, and he did not steer me wrong.
I would highly recommend Marc and his firm to anyone seeking legal representation that is fair, honest and will keep your best interest and unique needs at the forefront. Thank you for everything you did in the past four years.
Attorneys often convey a sterile attitude toward clients that is often void of sincerity and compassion, and may even be condescending. Marc Wites has not lost his humanity!! Mr. Wites is an attorney that continues to stay abreast of the law, which results in excellent results for his clients. Marc Wites is my "go to" attorney when I am looking for A-rated service and quality representation. I consider Marc as not only my attorney but a friend as well.
Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.
The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.
Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page
Martindale Peer Reviews
Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.
What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*
• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.
• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.
• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.
Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.
Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
