After several false starts with other attorneys, we were recommended to Donald L. Sadowski. We had an outstanding experience working with him. His expertise, professionalism, and caring approach made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I wholeheartedly recommend Don for any of your estate planning needs.

I have worked with Don Sodowski for over 30 years and over 10 IRS audits. I have never had to pay more than was fair. He knows the IRS laws better than IRS agents and has knocked down demands of $3,000,000 to $1500. If you are getting demands that seem inappropriate, he’s the tax lawyer to represent you and protect you. He’s literally saved me millions of dollars, yet his fees are always reasonable. He’s the best.

Really enjoyed working with Don on our estate planning. He made it smooth, painless and explained things to us as many times as needed. I will definitely recommend him to my friends and family. Cindy and I enjoyed the conversations we had at the office. Don is very sociable and has a great sense of humor. Treated us like family from day one. Thank you sir!!

Don has been our business attorney for over 15 years, has handled our family's estate planning for almost as long, and has been involved in about a dozen real-estate transactions for us. Over the years he has created employee contracts and updated them as laws change and new compliance issues arise. Don has represented us in both large and small business transactions, from the purchase of a business and its assets to smaller services such as creating LLCs and DBAs as our scope of business grew. Don has always advised us expertly on how to best protect our assets as well as how to best position ourselves for the highest return on our business investments. Don also has a strong network of attorneys who practice law in areas outside of Don’s areas of concentration, which has made him our principal resource and the first person we call whenever legal questions arise, both professionally and personally.

Will not recommend Mr Sadowski to any small business owner. He has less patience to listen to someone , keeps interrupting often and very unprofessional and not diversity friendly individual. Was very uncomfortable talking to him who repeatedly saying he doesn’t understand me but he was quick to charge consultation fee after intimidating me. Will call his office get my $50 back as I waited for 6 months. He charged me for consultation $350 and I paid $400 by cash.

Don was invaluable as he helped me with my brother's estate. Guided me through the entire process, answered all my questions, always kept me in the loop of filings, and was sympathetic in the loss of my brother. What a wonderful attorney, with a great sense of compassion and humor.

Don is an excellent lawyer. I found him on the internet to do a will/trust for me he did an excellent job. He answered all my questions and listened to what I had to say. So if you need a good lawyer for a will or trust Don is the one you should go with. I am very pleased by the way he handled my trust/will.

I cannot thank Don enough for his excellent legal service. He is undoubtedly one of the best business attorneys in the Chicagoland area. What I like about Don the most is that he is a person of integrity. He always answered my phone calls or called me back as soon as he was able, he clearly laid out all my legal options for me so that I could make the best decision and he performed all legal services in a timely manner. I really felt that I was in control of the whole situation throughout the legal battle and I had the best legal counsel, Don, on my side. I highly recommend Don Sadowski for anyone needing a superb business attorney.

Don is great. He has been wonderful and appreciated throughout the 15 years he's helped my law firm with corporate and transactional matters, from concept to approaches, to drafting and execution. He is very responsive. He knows what he's talking about. He puts it together quickly. And I've found his rates are very reasonable.

08/19/2020. I had an issue with a previous employer and needed legal counsel. I turned to Don Sadowski for help. Don was able to get things done for me effectively, properly, and most important professionally. I was able to move on without any worries. I highly recommend The Law Offices of Don L. Sadowski.

Don Sadowski has been invaluable for both my personal matters and business since 1986. Don provides tax preparation, business financial filings, estate planning and advise on legal and money-related matters. The reasons Don has been my lawyer, tax consultant and estate planner for 34 years are several. Don is ultra-reliable and performs his work on time and/or provides a schedule of due dates for issues such as corporate and personal taxes. Don also has produced critical estate, trust, and living wills for my father, mother, wife, daughter and myself. End of life issues can be crucial, with one piece of paper created by Don that allowed my father to pass with dignity. A single form properly executed can make all the difference. Don also has created trusts that have reduced our family's tax burdens when assets are passed from one generation to the next. On the business side Don has helped me greatly in setting up my company properly with federal and state agencies, keeping my firm in compliance with taxation and reporting issues. Don is also quickly available when he is called or emailed and gets back to me rapidly with answers to my questions. His services have been very valuable to me and he is worth every penny I have paid him. Don is highly ethical, follows the changes in applicable laws, and advises me on the legal ways to handle various personal and business issues. I am not a lawyer, and I sleep better knowing that Don Sadowski is my tax and legal go-to guy.

I have worked with Don Sadowski for over 10 years. His ethics and skill are top shelf and I would highly recommend his firm for assistance and representation in tax, legal, and estate planning matters. He cares about the client and often goes above and beyond expecations.

Don has been my corporate attorney since the start of my company 22 years ago. His legal expertise in Contracts (including negotiations), Human Resources, corporate (ownership buy/sell agreements etc.) and Trust work have helped us navigate the challenges and growth of our business. His dedication to us is very evident with how quick he responds to our needs, especially when a fast response is needed. He is incredibly thorough in his work. I would highly recommend Don for his corporate legal services!

I engaged Mr. Sadowski to handle my late great aunt's estate; she had been widowed for 17 years, no children, and had outlived all her nieces and nephews. I looked after her, had power of attorney, joint bank accounts, and even met her attorney who drafted her Will and medical documents. I never looked at those documents until her passing. The executor in her Will was a large financial institution where she had no affiliation who had no interest in handling due to the estate size comprised primarily by her home. It was my desire to fulfill her wishes which were very specific in her Will: all her assets were allocated to 13 specific charities. Sadowski quickly handled securing the declination of the financial institution, as well as soliciting the 13 charities to accept my no fee appointment as administrator of her estate. Within 1-1/2 years of her passing, I sold her home (which he handled) and through the law firm, her assets were distributed to those 13 charities just as she directed. This was all done efficiently, ethically, and with compassion that my goal was to honor her bequests. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr. Sadowski as a law professional, particularly when you are dealing with your most important assets, most notably, family.

Don worked closely with me and my accountant to sell a privately held business. Where the other side had teams of attorneys I just had Don who did the work of the entire other team. He was diligent and knowledgeable, prompt and responsive. I couldn’t have asked for a better associate during this sale. He was recommended by my accountant who has worked with him on many business and estate related issues and I would highly recommend him after my own experience.

Don S has been our family estate attorney for decades over 3 generations. Not only has he provided invaluable estate planning but he has taught me a lot about the process.
