Zach is AMAZING! He cares about the client and most of all the children. Treats clients like family. Jeanie his assistant is so helpful and spot on. Zach is never late to court and always returns calls even on weekends. He is also reasonably priced. I can't recommend Pro Legal Care LLC enough for all your legal needs!!!!

I worked with Zach Townsend to obtain an order of protection for domestic abuse and won my case. My favorite part about this process as it was very emotionally confusing for me was that Zach was not only sensitive to my situation, but he helped prepare me for all the different scenarios that may transpire. I gave him explicit personal details and messages as evidence and we went through it together. He described to me what kind of questions I may be challenged with if I were to take the witness stand and how to respond honestly, but also knowing that those questions may not be in my favor and insensitive to me as a person and how not to destroy my credibility by becoming offended. He did role playing with me to show me what he meant. We determined different avenues to go about preparing evidence: messages, asking for video footage from where the incident took place, subpoenaing a witness, etc. to make sure we were organized and in the best place to win. He pulled my respondent into a conference before the trial to offer him a plea and he took it. I was able to walk away with a two year order of protection due to his representation and am very happy with his services. He also made me a copy of all documentation and e-mailed me my order to have an electronic copy with myself at all times and gave me more pointers on how to remain safe and what to do if the order is violated. I highly recommend him to anyone.

Zachary Townsend has been my lawyer for over a year since I first met him asking for help. He will listen to the problems, review evidence thoroughly, give you the best advice he can & he will do everything possible in court so it's a fair hearing/trial. He is worth every penny hiring him. He keeps his clients updated on everything, he is always a phone call/text message away & he truly cares for his clients seeking justice. He in my opinion is the BEST lawyer you can have. Don't look any father if you need a lawyer, call him & set up an appointment if you're needing legal advice/representation for anything!!!

I am beyond happy with the services both Zach and his assistant Mallory has provided to me! From my initial call to the office to this very moment, every step has been extremely professional, detail oriented, warm and at a VERY satisfying pace! Zach has been honest, transparent, informative, caring and very understanding. Aside from being an awesome attorney, he’s a stand up and relatable person. Definitely an attorney I am proud and confident to have represent any of my cases. Thank you so much Zach and Mallory!

Awesome service! Zachary and the team helped me out immensely when my father got sick and I had to take care of his legal problems while he was in the hospital. I was feeling overwhelmed, and they walked me through the process every step of the way. They really made sure my family was taken care of. I can’t say enough about well I was treated!

Zach and his team were awesome to work with. He took time to explain everything, gave us realistic timeline expectations, communicated every step of the way, and never made us hound him for an answer. Other lawyers ignore you and make it hard to contact them, but Pro Legal Care's team communicates every step of the way and are there to answer all of your questions. Our adoption was done just as he said and met the timeline that he gave. Zach's knowledge of the legal world was exceptional and I would definitely recommend him and his team for your legal needs!

Tracie Drake

15:22 17 Jul 19

I hired Zach based on a recommendation and I was not disappointed. While my custody case did last much longer than I would have liked I do realize that he only had so much control over that, and opposing counsel was a royal pain in the butt who caused most of the wasted time. He absolutely did his best to advocate for my son and I to achieve not only majority parenting time, but also to set boundaries that protect us from potential loopholes that could have been a major headache. He and his staff responded in a timely manner, answered when I needed them most, and pushed harder when things were getting too out of hand. I cannot thank Zach and his team enough (Erin I’m looking at you!) because they really did make my year. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I hope this review can help the next person looking for help and answers.

I can’t thank attorney Townsend and attorney Johnson enough for all their hard work the past year and a half. They worked with me on a payment plan, they always kept me in the loop, if I called to speak with them they either got on the phone immediately or I got a call back within hours. My case had ups and downs but they always remained optimistic and professional and delivered on everything I had hoped for. Not easy for a dad to get custody and they helped me get full custody with all decision making powers in all aspects. Highly recommend pro legal care!

Dana Marie

15:11 28 May 21

As a father, I have been through a few lawyers in getting custody of my son. Some more affordable than others. But they pale in comparison to Zach and his team. They got things done quickly and efficiently in a few months what other lawyers would have dragged out for a year, as well as handling every request I had, regardless of how odd it seemed or how unusual it was. If you want a lawyer on your side, I fully recommend them. Other lawyers might have lesser rates, but they will drag their feet when it comes time to finish up with court, costing you far more time and money in the long run. My only regret is that I didn't hire them years ago. If you need a lawyer, you should hire them. You won't regret it.

John McCutcheon

14:28 09 Dec 21

Hands down one of the best law firms in the Rockford area. I have had Zack and his team on my side for countless occasions. I couldn’t ask for a better attorney to represent me on the custody battle I have had to go through and still am. I highly recommend them to be your legal representative highly knowledgeable and fights for everything you want. I thank you Zack and the team…
