Welcome to Olson & Reeves - Providing legal services for the Mount Vernon and Southern Illinois communities. We always offer free consultations. Call 618-316-7322 to schedule an appointment with an attorney today, or stop by 1015 Broadway Street, Mount Vernon, IL 62864 to set up your appointment. Unlike other attorneys who charge an initial fee to meet with you, we will always sit down and speak to you for free.

We want to give you a free case evaluation. As your lawyers, you can feel comfortable knowing we are going to fight for you. Whether it is a DUI or fighting an insurance company in your injury case, we will always be right by your side. As your attorney, we understand how difficult situations and legal pitfalls you may find yourself in.
Services
Our firm and its team of attorneys takes pride in the grounded approach it takes to representing its clients. Our attorneys wield a wide breadth of experience in multiple practice areas, and as natives of Southern Illinois, they are dedicated to meeting the individualized needs of their clients. We think you'll agree that our relationship-based approach is what sets Olson & Reeves apart from other law firms.
Olson and Reeves offers complete legal services for the Mount Vernon and Southern Illinois communities. We specialize in the following but we're not limited to these practice areas. Driving Under the Influence (DUI) is a criminal offense that can come with some stiff penalties in Illinois. In a world full of uncertainties, estate planning is more important than ever to help plan for problems or contingencies that may arise in the future.
Developmentally disabled adults are the most vulnerable amongst us, especially ones who live in community-integrated living arrangements (CILA). A CILA is a group home for no more than eight adults. These residents live under the supervision of a staff that helps provide care for the residents. CILAs must obtain a license from the Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS) and prove that the staff can care for the residents.
If you've been arrested and are now facing criminal charges, the time to retain an aggressive and experienced criminal attorney is now. Whether it is a felony or misdemeanor, the consequences of a conviction can have dire consequences. When it comes to criminal charges, the stakes are too high and your freedom is too important to have anyone less than the best defense lawyer representing you.
DUIs can have a disastrous effect on your life. It can give you a criminal record, lead to jail time, and cause you to lose your driver's license. That's why if you've been arrested for a DUI, you need a DUI lawyer that understands the criminal aspect of drunk driving laws, how to fight your DUI charge, and protect your driving privileges by challenging the Statutory Summary Suspension.

Sydney Bochtantin was extremely professional, responsive, and encouraging throughout the process of handling a speeding ticket in Monroe County. She explained the steps that needed to be taken and reassured me that my case was in good hands. Lawyer Reeves representatives me well, achieving the best possible outcome. Thank you!

Great firm to work with. They handled a ticket for us. My only contact was Sydney and she did an excellent job. She kept us updated on the process, responded quickly to my emails and questions and we even heard from her a couple times on the weekends.

Huge thank you to Sydney and Josh Reeves! I spoke with multiple attorneys regarding my traffic ticket and Olson & Reeves was the most upfront and reasonably priced. I couldn't believe how easy and stress free the process was. 11/10 recommend!!

DON'T WAST YOUR MONEY!!! When and if the case gets complicated they will leave you high and dry. They would rather make up lies on their own clients -- to the point I think it should be considered misconduct -- than to see a complex case through. Which is why I have full intention on reporting Josh Reeves for misconduct to ARDC of the Supreme Court of Illinois next week.

I TALKED WITH JOSH REEVES ABOUT THE MALPRACTICE AND NEGLIGENCE, THAT HAS BEEN INFLICTED UPON MY HUSBAND. JOSH STATED FOR ME TO BRING MY HUSBAND'S MEDICAL RECORDS TO HIS OFFICE. MY PARENTS AND I DELIVERED MY HUSBAND'S RECORDS TO JOSH'S OFFICE. I HAD NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM JOSH, SO I THOUGHT THAT JOSH WAS WORKING ON THIS CASE FOR US. I DECIDED TO… CALL ON FRIDAY, JULY 12, 2019, AFTER NOT HEARING FROM JOSH. HIS ASSISTANT, NANCY STATED THAT SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS HAPPENING WITH THE CASE AND WHAT JOSH WAS DOING ABOUT IT. THERE IS NO COMMUNICATION IN THE OFFICE, TO KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING. JOSH
