Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to be a union member to work with you?
No. The private practice is open to individuals, families, landlords, corporations, and other organizations throughout Illinois.
Can you help if my closing is already scheduled?
Often, yes — reach out as soon as possible so there's time to review your documents before closing.
What if my matter involves both my employer and a personal legal issue (like buying a house)?
