Prairie State Legal Services, Inc.

Absolutely the worst. Represent yourself, you'll be better off. If they assign Gabby to you, forget getting any help. She is extremely lacking in knowledge and expertise. Run, don't walk.

Called several times. I get the same answer on all phone numbers that the is full to call back later. I have called different days and different times. Can't get thru.

Hard to get a hold of hard to get help and will not get you in court.

like to request a phone call from you. I have received nothing , supar performance. I'm signing things that are making no sense. I am requesting the everything be put on hold. Especially the power of story they just had me sign. Attorney Molly racar. I feel is not qualified not really care. My next step will be to drive down to peoria and come in person to the office. I don't think her and I are a fit.

We emailed back and forth received a phone call they asked all the questions told me they would get back with me to let me know if they could represent me and if not they would let me know what I needed to know to get legal help . The case was for my granddaughter her high school wanted to expell her over a fight she didn’t start never heard back from them and my granddaughter did get expelled with three months left to graduate I was so disappointed in this so called law firm

I can't express the great gratitude for the help Prairie State Legal Service has provided for me,Thank you!

There not helpful at all they wouldn't let me speak the lady wanted to keep telling me that I'm arguen with her they are very bad and communicating with people and understanding someone

Posting on behalf of Travis & Dominique- My attorney was the person who carried both of the weight when my husband and I could not any longer! The fight she put up And the team’s guidance helped us understand that when you feel like you’re alone reach out and prarrie State Legal services hold your hand. Out of respect for our attorney I won’t mention the her name. I will tell you my name is Dominique and I greatly appreciate how you were mindful of medical conditions and I admit I’m a lot to handle but I appreciate the fight and wins

Scammers and of no help to citizens needing their assistance. Use the excuse they have limited funds and won't do what you need. Our taxes ultimately pay their salaries, so you would think they would and could do anything a citizen needs, instead of making excuses. Found out you have to pay per page reviewed, $100's of dollars. I can't afford their peo-bono assistance. What a joke! They must enjoy being an embarrassment to the poor people of Illinois! Must have been Ameren executives in their prior lives!

I was told by one of them to try to obtain guardianship of my adult son with disabilities (but that they don't help with guardianship so didn't help with that), then call back when his ssi case gets denied a second time. (They said they could only help after it gets denied a second time). So I call back during second denial and then was told by another of their "attorney" that they couldn't help me because of a "conflict of interest " because I had previously called about getting help with guardianship? (which they didn't help me with, I called the first time about his ssi appeal..they only recommended I get guardianship from what I recall). She told me it was hard to explain.. ok well made no sense either! I believe she was saying the guardianship was for me and the ssi for my son? Well sorry but I don't need the guardianship or ANY of it for myself.. believe me! I'd very much just like to live my own life and not have to worry about my adult son! I feel she may have thought I was lying about something with my son. I have no reason to lie just a frustrated parent unable to seem to get any help for my son because he turned the magic number of 18 and unable to care for himself on his own. Honestly, this woman wouldn't have been able to represent him anyways with the impression I got from her. No thank you. It's pretty sad that this seems to be the only "pro bono" attorney s around in Illinois and they are of zero help only add to the stress, frustration and confusion in my case.

Horrible no help

Would not even talk to me or refer me to somebody who could help! I’m a single mom living paycheck to paycheck! I am raising my daughter alone but I’m told I make to much much for them to help me! Where do I go when I don’t have $4,000 for a retainer! Your system is messed up! I need a pro bono attorney and I’m left to fight on my own! No one will help me!!!!
