Call Us Now!
Finding an attorney who is a “real person” can be difficult. Many attorneys surround themselves almost exclusively with other attorneys and are accustomed to speaking in ivory tower legalese. You should be able to connect with your attorney on a personal level, and he or she should speak to you in plain language that you can understand. You will be working very closely with this person on issues that are very important to you. It is important that he or she be down-to-earth and someone that you connect with.
The most common complaint that clients have of their attorneys is that the attorney is unreachable, does not communicate with them regularly, or does not promptly return your calls. Your attorney should reach out to you about your case regularly and respond within 24 hours to calls and e-mails. An open line of communication between you and your attorney is essential to building trust.
Your attorney’s goal should not be to win at all costs. Rather, it should be to achieve a favorable outcome for you as efficiently as possible. It is important that your attorney set realistic expectations at the outset as to the costs you should expect, the concerns that the attorney has about the outcome of your case, and the length of time that you should expect your case to take.
Regardless of the nature of your case, we have an experienced attorney who will focus on your individual needs. Our team of attorneys works closely together, bringing each of their different fields of experience to bear in order to optimize our client care.

In this article, our Cook County business litigation lawyers explain written discovery in commercial litigation. Written discovery consists of interrogatories (written questions), requests for production of documents, and requests that the other party admit or deny certain facts. The purpose of written discovery is to reduce the number of issues at trial and allow the attorneys to understand the other side's position, paint the other side into a factual corner, and prepare for depositions.
In this article, our Cook County commercial litigation attorneys explain which party bears attorney fees in business disputes. The general rule is that, win or lose, each side bears its own attorney fees and court costs. However, if the litigation is the result of a contract dispute, the losing side may be required to bear attorney fees if the contract so provides. Certain statutory claims like consumer fraud also require the fees to be shifted to a losing defendant.
In this article, our Cook County commercial litigation lawyers explain how motions to dismiss can be used to dispose of unmeritorious business lawsuits. The first step in initiating business litigation is to file a complaint that states facts leading to a cause of action that would entitle the plaintiff to damages. If the defendant can show that the complaint fails to state facts leading to a cause of action or if there is another affirmative matter that would cause the case to be dismissed without a trial, the court will grant the motion to dismiss, potentially terminating the litigation in the early stages.
