If I’ve learned anything over the past 44 years practicing law it’s that clients want to be treated as individuals and have their fears and concerns addressed in timely and respectful way. Of course they want their case to be taken care of as quickly as possible and they deserve a lawyer who will do that and be available to meet with them, answer their questions and explain their options all the way through.. I’ve spent time on both sides of the table so I’m able to conduct effective pretrial negotiations and outflank opposing counsel in the courtroom. This unique combination of skills can be put to use for you.. I’ve been admitted to practice before the United States Supreme Court, the Courts of the State of Illinois, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, the U.S. District Court for the Central District of Illinois and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit..
