About the firm
Generations of trust
Established more than 60 years ago, our firm traces its roots in the community back to the 1890s. We provide personal legal service in the highest professional manner to individuals and businesses throughout Cook County and the collar counties, including neighboring Will and Kankakee counties in Illinois and Lake County, Indiana.
We enjoy long-standing relationships with many of our clients, and we have served many local families and businesses for multiple generations.
Our attorneys are experienced trial attorneys and trained arbitrators who work hard for individuals and families. They take the time to review each case thoroughly so they know the facts and claims specific to it.
Our personal injury attorneys work with people injured in car accidents, slip-and-falls and more. Our workers' compensation attorney represents employees injured on the job. Our real estate attorney represents both buyers and sellers, with the goal of a smooth closing that takes some of the stress out of an often emotional transaction.
Every client and situation is unique, so we tailor our approach to the needs of each case.
