The opening of my own firm naturally followed several steps forward throughout my legal career. Each such step has provided additional knowledge and improvement in my own skills, leading inevitably to the creation of my own firm to provide sophisticated legal knowledge and skill to matters for clients who require individual attention and a close relationship with their attorney.. Immediately after law school, I gained great insight into the entire legal process and the creation of Illinois case law as a judicial clerk serving a two year appointment working directly with an Illinois Appellate Court judge, researching and writing the kinds of legal opinions that guide litigators and provide judges a basis for rulings in cases every day.. After my clerkship, I was lucky to work in a small firm in the same metropolitan area where I obtained significant experience at every level of the trial and appeals process, conducting numerous bench and jury trials in Illinois and Iowa courts; handling appeals in Illinois and Federal courts (including oral argument before the Seventh Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals); developing cases through every stage of litigation; and honing my abilities negotiating settlements, writing, and arguing the motions required in all civil litigation.. After a move across the state of Illinois, I worked in a large law firm in the Chicago Loop. I gained invaluable experience handling every facet of the most complex state and federal litigation for large international clients, working on matters in Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Though the commute from the far west to the Loop proved daunting, the experience gained in civil litigation of great sophistication was invaluable.. For seven years, I was fortunate to continue developing the same skills while serving business clients in complex and interesting civil litigation at Clingen, Callow & McLean, a sophisticated business law firm in Lisle, Illinois. During this time, besides continuing development of my general civil litigation and business counseling skills, I developed an interest in and obtained a great deal of experience handling disputes involving real estate.. All of these relationships have provided significant experience and knowledge in complex litigation and legal counseling that I like to bring to my clients in a close, personal attorney-client relationship. My assistance will always be designed to help you fully understand the complicated legal issues we all face in the modern world, quickly and painlessly resolve any legal conflicts you face, and accomplish the business and personal goals I will help you formulate through a full understanding of your personal life and/or business.
