My story begins with the meeting of a  plumber and  a   secretary at a doctor's office -- my father and mother.  All they ever wanted me to do was to become a Lawyer.  So, here I am.  I was born to Hugh and Vernell Wyeth on April 27, 1959 at the old Copley Hospital in Aurora, Illinois.. After attending West Aurora High School (Classs of 1977), and the University of Illinois (Class of 1981 -- Accounting), I moved back to my parent's home and commuted via the Burlington Northern to the John Marshall Law School in Chicago.  I also passed the CPA Exam during my second year of Law School -- that was busy fall.  My course selection was heavy on estate planning an business courses with my intention -- from the very beginning, 33 years ago -- of counseling people about their estates and businesses.. I still do today.. One of the biggest changes that I have found is the ability to counsel people "at a distance" because of the internet.  I enjoy using email and the web to be available to clients regardless of where they live in Illinois.

I am an Attorney who is not afraid of hard work.. I pride myself on a very strong work ethic. I am originally from the countryside in central Illinois near Champaign. I grew up doing real chores, and began working on a farm at the age of 14! My work history ranges from working on a farm to home construction and even retail sales. I use my diverse work background to benefit clients in all of their Real Estate legal needs.. Growing up I played football for Monticello High School, a town where Friday night football would practically shut down the town. I went on to play football in college until I was ultimately recruited in 2012 to play football at North Central College in Naperville during the 2012 and 2013 seasons, 2013 is the first season we made it all the way to the D3 National Semi-Finals! Go Cards!. My personal hobbies are just as diverse as my work history. I love to golf, garden, work on cars, grill and smoke meats, dabble in photography, and I love to DIY project around my own home.. I have a lovely wife, Kelsey, who is a Division Controller for a Fortune 500 company and a CPA. We are both very dedicated to our professional lives, but we always make sure to find time for each other. We enjoy traveling, hosting parties with friends, hanging out with our two cats, Freddie Krueger and Jason Voorhees, and running together. Our favorite activity is to take our boat out to the Illinois River to boat with friends and family.. When you choose me to represent you, your concerns and needs are my primary focus. You can expect me to approach your situation with the exact same concern I would have for my own legal situation. You can be assured that my personality, work history, and passion for the law will best suit you in your Real Estate Journey!. When you sign on with me, your legal matters become my own!
