After Hearing Thomas’ Expert Presentation, The Judge Found Me Not Guilty

If you are reading this you are probably feeling stressed and anxious either for yourself or someone you love. I understand. My story: because Illinois has no look back period for old DUIs, even those more than thirty years old, I was in a panic when I was stopped in August 2019. Looking for the very best lawyer to represent me, I painstakingly researched attorneys online and met with several in person. At my first meeting with Thomas Glasgow I was impressed with his expertise and experience. He was forthright about my alternatives: because of the long ago DUI’s, either I would serve significant prison time or be acquitted. No middle ground. However, he was also confident that he could help me. His first recommendation was to contest the summary suspension of my license and against my expectations he succeeded in overturning it. Because of COVID and other delays, it would take another 12 months before the DUI trial would take place. During this prolonged and anxious time Thomas was attentive to all my questions and concerns and always treated me with respect and understanding. At trial Thomas’ years of experience were plain to see. His questioning of the arresting officers was highly organized and thorough. His demeanor was tough but polite. After hearing Thomas’ expert presentation and seeing the body cam video, the judge found me not guilty. I highly recommend Thomas Glasgow of Glasgow and Olsson. Thomas saved me. He has a combination of quality human traits and impressive legal skills which set him far above most in his profession.

Pure Excellence

Tom is a very knowledgeable, experienced, and professional attorney. At all of our meetings, he showed pure excellence. He was very honest with me about what would happen and my consequences. I greatly appreciated this. He even purchased a copy of my book that I wrote to tell my story of hitting rock bottom and then becoming a success story. I would not have the privileges I have now without Tom. I HIGHLY recommend him!

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.

Tom will never let you down!

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!

I wanted to say thank you for helping me defend myself. I was broke, on the brink of eviction and being intimidated by my ex.

I couldn’t have gotten here without you and your team.  Please know how truly grateful I am to all of you. This new chapter wouldn’t be possible without all of you.

I wanted to say thank you.

You Really Helped Turn My Life Around

Mr. Glasgow, I would like to express all my gratitude for helping me with my legal situation you really helped turn my life around making this process very easy and being helpful all the way through.

Exceptional Ethical Standards and Professionalism

Dear Sarah,

I wanted to take a moment to personally thank you for the outstanding work you’ve done representing me throughout my divorce case over the past nine months. From start to finish, your approach was exactly what I needed aggressive when the situation called for it, and incredibly supportive when things felt overwhelming. You explained every step of the process and kept me well informed during probably the worst time of my life when everything was so fresh and uncertain. You struck that balance perfectly, and I’m truly grateful.

One of the main reasons I continue to turn to Glasgow & Olsson for all my legal matters is the exceptional ethical standards and professionalism your firm upholds. It’s rare to find a legal team that not only fights hard for their clients but does so with such integrity, transparency, and respect for the process. That level of character sets Glasgow & Olsson apart and has always given me confidence that I’m in the right hands.

I especially want to recognize your work in crafting a fair and thoughtful parenting plan. The outcome not only protected my rights but, more importantly, ensured that my son and I have the quality time and stability we both need. That means more to me than I can properly express.

Lastly, I know I haven’t always been the easiest client to represent. This process brought out some of the toughest parts of me. Thank you for your patience, persistence, and unwavering commitment, even during the moments that were less than smooth.

I’m deeply grateful to have had you in my corner during such a critical time, and I won’t hesitate to recommend you and the entire Glasgow & Olsson team to anyone in need of strong, ethical, and compassionate legal representation.

P.S.

I’ve attached some photos of my son and me so you can see what you have fought so hard to keep intact.

With sincere appreciation,
