Gates, Wise, Schlosser & Goebel

If you’re looking for someone who knows the law, Todd Goebel does. If you’re looking for someone who knows systems, people, and how things actually move behind the scenes — that’s where Todd stands out. My case involved long-standing, complicated issues with the Illinois Secretary of State. Todd was calm, precise, and honest about timelines from the start. No hype, no false promises — just steady competence and follow-through. What impressed me most was his judgment. He knew when to push, when to wait, and how to navigate situations that don’t fit neatly into a checkbox. The end result was full resolution, exactly as he said it would be. If you want a lawyer who combines experience, credibility, and quiet confidence — Todd Goebel is the real deal. Thank you, Todd, for your professionalism, persistence, and integrity throughout the process.

Very rude didn’t listen to anything I was explaining Brandon Wilson and hung up in my face wouldn’t recommend to a dog Update 12/30/2025 I forgot I gave them a horrible review before and just went to give a review and it was the same rude person again Brandon Wilson still horrible still talks over you when your speaking and nothing is case to him my opinion still hasn’t changed still a horrible firm to deal with

I called and left a message for Mr Schlosser on 11/9, stopped at their facility on 11/10, and called in 11/12 again asking for a meeting. I never was able to speak with anyone but the receptionist who gave me the runaround everytime (he is on the phone, his is out of the office, he is with a client). But she assured me he would call me back and after 13 days it hasnt happened. 11/22/25

Todd and his team did a wonderful job handling my husbands case and helped him to get his license back after nineteen years of going without it. He’s very thorough, and will make sure you comprehend the process, start to finish. You won’t be alone in your journey with him handling your case.

I've just recently received my driver's license back with help from Todd Goebel and staff at GWS. Todd is very thorough and direct in his approach. He will not leave a stone unturned. I couldn't be more pleased with the service and recommend this team to anyone seeking guidance. THANK YOU!!!

Office treated us like a priority and did not seem bothered at all to answer questions and assist in helping.

I hired Todd goebel the help me navigate the secretary of state very professional and knows how to get the job done... highly recommend!!!

My brother was referred by a friend to Attorney, Todd Goebel. We met with Todd and he explained my brother's situation and the fact of the different possibilities that my brother would be dealing with. Beside his legal issue, Todd was also able to recognize the delicate situation my brother was in which I am very grateful for. His office staff was very kind, helpful and understanding. Todd was able to choose the best outcome for my brother's legal situation. Thank you, Todd and Staff.

My husband and I hired Peter Wise. He dragged the case out for a year and we still lost. Every time we went to his office for a meeting we had to repeat the same information over and over again. A definite waist of money and time.

I have used Fred and Gorden in the past. This firm is top notch!
