Aggressive, Dedicated and Knowledgeable Illinois Lawyers

At Harter & Schottland, we respect our clients and we fight to resolve their problems. When you choose our law firm, you can depend on us to pursue your interests as if they were our own, because when you win, we win, too. Our Northern Illinois criminal defense attorneys stand between you and the power of the government, protecting your constitutional rights.

Our family law attorneys ensure that you are not taken advantage of and are treated fairly in divorce and child custody proceedings. If you have been injured, our personal injury attorneys will stand up to the powerful insurance companies and demand financial compensation. In real estate closing and evictions we protect your interests, and with a dedicated real estate department, promise timely resolutions.

Proactive Legal Advocacy

Se habla español

The law changes every year and we keep up to date with the changes. We frequently win cases because our opponents were working with out-of-date information. Shouldn't you be represented by an attorney who stays on top of the latest laws and cases?

Clear Communication

We not only know the law, we explain—in clear English or Spanish—how it affects you. We take the time to educate our clients about their situation, the law, and their legal options. We tell you what you need to know so that you can make informed decisions about your case. Further, we promise to keep you informed of important developments as your case progresses through the legal process..

If you want an attorney who takes your legal issue seriously and gives it the personal attention it deserves, contact Harter & Schottland. We get results. The initial case evaluation is free of charge and we offer payment plans.

From offices in Round Lake Beach, Waukegan, and Woodstock, we represent clients throughout Northern Illinois.
