Attorney Mike Drabant began his legal career in 2010 as an Associate with the law firm A. Traub & Associates in Lombard, Illinois. Then in 2013, Mike opened his own firm, The Drabant Law Group, Ltd. In 2016, Mike joined the firm Wilson & Wilson Estate Planning & Elder Law, LLC, in LaGrange, Illinois, where he eventually became a partner. Mike brings a wealth of knowledge to the firm, particularly in the areas of Estate Planning, Guardianship, Estate and Trust Administration, Special Needs Planning, and Medicaid Applications and Appeals.

Mike believes in “ethical and compassionate representation” of his clients. Mike prides himself on his responsiveness by always returning client messages no later than the next business day.
