I welcome phone calls from all areas of legal and non-legal concerns and am open to helping those in need when it is possible for me to do so.

I help clients acquire assets, either by helping them purchase real estate, businesses, or other assets. Then, I help my clients protect those assets during their lifetime for their wealth-building and enjoyment. Finally, I help clients ensure that their assets are well protected for their loved ones after they die.

If you have questions about how well-protected you are, please don't hesitate to call me. I'd welcome the opportunity to sit down with you and discuss your personal situation.

I have been practicing law with the same firm and its successor for over 40 years. My practice is concentrated on estate planning, real estate (both commercial and residential) and business transactions.. I have served on several Boards over the years such as United Way of Elgin, St. Edward Foundation (2 years as President), Well Child Conference, Oak Crest Residence and the Elgin Country Club.. My hobbies are walking, biking and golf. My wife and I will soon be blessed with our 10th grandchild. We spend a lot of wonderful time with the grandchildren.

Hi! If I'm not in front of the computer or at a closing, you will likely find me outside enjoying gardening and yard work.  I love to travel and spend a good amount of my free time in Florida where 3 of my 4 children live. In my younger (and dumber) years you'd likely find me entered in some mudder, Spartan, or triathalon race. Boy does my body feel it these days!  I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.
