The McHenry Law Firm has a wide range of experience.  If we can’t help you, we will refer you to someone who can!

Criminal Law

Whether you or your loved one is facing criminal charges, we have your back.  We work with each client individually to craft a strong legal defense and ensure that our clients’ rights are not trampled on.

McHenry Law Firm handles all types of criminal cases and has achieved numerous positive results.  Our past clients have faced charges ranging from summary offenses, misdemeanors, and even major felonies.  We fight hard for you, and will always be working to get you an acquittal or your charges dismissed or dropped.  Although we have experience negotiating positive plea bargains, if you want to go to trial we are committed to standing behind you 100%.

If you or your loved one has been convicted of a crime, give us a call immediately because we also handle appeals and post-conviction relief!

Family Law

Trouble in your home life? Our family law practice consists of divorce, custody, adoption, PFA, and name change clients.

Is your ex not letting you see your child?  We have experience not just in filing for custody but also pursuing other forms of special relief, including emergency custody.  Do not sit on your parental rights and let the other parent’s actions become the new status quo.

I ensure that my divorce clients can go on to live a happy life.  This includes making sure that there is a fair division of the couple’s property and debts, a suitable custody schedule, and in appropriate cases pursuing spousal support or alimony.

If you are in a situation where your partner or former partner has abused, harmed, or threatened you, then you need to get a PFA.  Many local organizations will represent you free of cost, but we will take the time to learn all about you and your case to ensure your safety.  We also handle PFA defense matters, so if your former partner is lying and bringing unfounded abuse charges against you, McHenry Law Firm will help you craft a strong defense.
