I was born and raised on the north side of Chicago. My parents were immigrants from Greece and worked hard to give me an education. My father was a union member who was killed in a work accident due to negligence, when I was 15. Because of my background, I have strived to help individuals and small business--to give them the best legal advice or represent them against large corporations and insurance companies. This drive compels me to consummate a complete victory for my clients.. I have received a top-notch education and now have about 30 years of experience in transactions and litigation. I have tried cases in state and federal courts, in Chicago and nationwide.. I concentrate in landlord-tenant and real estate, business/corporate transactions and lawsuits, and personal injury.. As part of my anniversary celebration as a lawyer, we have unveiled our new logo which we believe captures our mission. The logo visually is traditional but updated. The lion and motto are traditional aspects of a heraldic crest, for example, indicating the traditional aspect of the legal system, but the round look and clean lines and sharp colors give it a modern look.. At the center is a Lion which throughout history has represented strength and bravery. The lion is depicted moving forward without fear, not backing down. The motto is Strength, Courage, Integrity. Al three traits are necessary to represent a client successfully. We don't back down from anybody and have the courage and strength to defeat an adversary. At the same time, my integrity is at the core of my practice, both to my clients and to the courts. My clients' best interests are my primary concern. Finally, the lion is holding both a sword and a shield, depicting the oft-repeated legal axiom that the law is sometimes used as a sword to enforce rights, and sometimes as a shield to protect from injustice.

Our Illinois based law firm is founded on the basic principle that it is the careful application of your specific circumstances to the relevant laws that allows us to determine the most practical, efficient, and ethical way of resolving your legal issues. It is because of this philosophy that over 90% of our business is built on referrals.. Good legal representation comes not only from technical competence, but also from dedicated service to others. Each year we dedicate time to community service, public issues, and volunteer legal work. We work hard to improve the quality of life for our clients, our community and our families.. Our areas of practice are focused on civil litigation, real estate law, international trade law, business law, construction law, lender services, insurance law, lending services and mortgages, criminal, estate planning, bankruptcy, and other related fields. While most of our representation is based in Chicago-land circuit and federal courts, we frequently handle matters in district courts in locations such as Skokie, Rolling Meadows, Maywood, along with numerous DuPage County and Lake County courts.. With Polish and Spanish speaking associates, we have represented not only our local community, but also international and out of state clients with the assistance of local counsel as needed. Should your legal needs fall outside the scope of our expertise, our office works with a network of experienced attorneys who are available to assist you.. In most legal cases, a delayed reaction or improper disclosure of information can lead to additional difficulties. We strongly recommend you discuss your legal matters with an attorney, prior to taking action or providing information that can potentially be used against you. While this is not uniform for all cases, we believe it is always better to invest in preparation prior to execution.. Thank you in advance for your consideration. We look forward to addressing your legal needs in the near future.
