Criminal law.

Criminal law is a particularly important area of the law. From traffic offenses, to misdemeanors and felonies, I can help you defend your innocence, or at least make sure your guilty plea is a result of full and fair investigation and disclosure. If your child is in trouble, I will do everything I legally can do to protect him from the prosecutorial over-reaching and harshness he or she can experience if braving the legal system alone.

General practice.

There are many situations in which the guidance of a lawyer will insure that your rights are protected. Be sure you have “your ducks in a row” when entering any new venture. For example, when starting a new business.

The Illinois laws of incorporation can protect you from financial liability. However, if you make a mistake in filing, or do not follow the procedures set out in the statute, you can find that you are personally liable for damages because you weren’t properly incorporated or given the legal advice you need to be successful. I can guide you through the maze, and make sure your new business is in compliance with the laws and rules that must be followed to make it thrive.

Contractual law.

Maybe, you are involved in a commercial dispute. Maybe you have been mislead by a manufacturer’s product claims. It doesn’t matter how you’ve been mistreated or ill advised. I am here to help.

There are many ways I can save you time and trouble. I am trained to draft and interpret contracts. I am licensed to pursue claims for business transactions gone awry. Landlords and tenants can benefit from my timely legal advice. If someone owes you money, or wrongfully says you are indebted to them, I can protect your interests.
