A Prosecutor’s Insight, A Defender’s Tenacity
Before founding his firm, Thomas T. Glasgow spent years as a Cook County State’s Attorney, prosecuting cases ranging from DUI and multi-kilo felony narcotics to first-degree murder. From 1994 to 1998, he worked in the Traffic, Narcotics, Juvenile, and Felony Review Divisions, trying both misdemeanor and felony cases before juries and judges. His time in the prosecutor’s office gave him firsthand insight into the strategies used by the State, an advantage that now empowers his clients in criminal defense cases.
“I became a State’s Attorney because I wanted to help people. But the criminal justice system is often a revolving door. As a defense attorney, I have been able to change more lives than I ever could as a prosecutor. Now, I fight for my clients with the same intensity I once prosecuted cases—because I know what’s at stake.”
– Thomas T. Glasgow

“Domestic relations cases are deeply personal. My job is to listen, to understand a client’s goals, and to navigate the litigation process with clarity and precision. Each client has a voice in their case, and my role is to ensure that voice is heard in a way that leads to the best outcome.”
