Testimonials

He Is Top-Notch

Thomas Glasgow and team are a wonderful attorney team. They were swift and responsive to the cases I brought them. Even during the pandemic they were able to keep me informed. I would recommend them to anybody who might be dealing with issues with the law or anything in terms of that. If I could give him 10 stars I definitely would. He is top-notch and his associates are the best too!

Tom Backs It Up

I was very upset about my case and doubting my current attorney when I contacted Tom and his firm. He took time out of his day to talk me off the ledge and helped me to see things in a clearer light and from my attorney’s perspective. He spoke with me nearly 25 minutes when he didn’t have to. Additionally, he called me back FIRST thing in the morning. I did not hire Glasgow & Olsson only because of Tom’s honesty integrity and advice. However, based on this experience I wouldn’t hesitate to refer someone to them. The fact that he advised me to stick with my current attorney instead of just taking my money tells you everything you need to know about him! They are trust worthy hardworking and Tom is very sharp and I could tell from even just a short conversation he had a ton of experience from the nuanced perspective he has on things. Very impressed with Tom. I expect his colleague to be just as exceptional. You get what you pay for in attorneys…but Tom backs it up. His knowledge of judges, other attorneys, the system in general is unmatched in all the conversations I’ve had with various attorneys over the years.

Make The Call To Glasgow and Olsson

I hired Glasgow and Olsson to handle an appeal of a denial of my FOID renewal. The firm was recommended by the Illinois Rifle Association and I now know why. They put together an appeal packet that initially took some time but that was so thorough that it was immediately accepted and saved so much back and forth with the State Police that I was genuinely shocked at how quickly my case was resolved and how little of my limited funds it cost me. I even got a sizable refund of my retainer! The staff is professional and pleasant to work with and Tom Glasgow personally was a gem to speak with. These people have your best interest at heart, feel confident in ‘pulling the trigger’ (couldn’t resist that one) and make the call to Glasgow and Olsson.

Fantastic Lawyer with Top-Legal Skills

I hired Tom Glasgow and his firm to seal some criminal cases out of Cook County. The charges were very serious, and although I was not convicted of those charges, I knew it would still be an uphill battle in court. During the two years my case was pending, Tom never wavered in his complete dedication to seeing a positive outcome for me. He has excellent legal skills and knew exactly how best to present my case to the judge. He presented the court with a detailed packet of my background and information that undermined the charges filed against me. The judge granted my petition to seal those arrest records. My family and I are grateful to Attorney Glasgow and his firm for everything they did on my behalf. Because of Tom Glasgow, what I believed was a nearly impossible feat turned into a reality for me. I highly endorse and recommend Tom Glasgow for criminal matters and sealings/expungements. Thank you, Tom!

Tom Glasgow is amazing. He has handled several criminal expungement and professional licensing matters for me. Each case had a great result, and I have Attorney Glasgow to thank for that. I would highly recommend him for anyone needing help in criminal law, expungements, and administrative matters. Tom will never let you down!
