Practice Areas
Personal Injury
Our firm represents individuals involved in controversies alleging a wrong, damage to another's person, rights, reputation, or property or the wrongful death of an individual from events or activities such as automobile accidents, defective products, medical malpractice, nursing home abuse, infliction of emotional distress, intentional misconduct, and negligence.
Business and Commercial Law
We provide a wide variety of services to our business clients from assisting in selecting the type of organizational entity under which to operate, preparation of agreements, sale and purchase of businesses, obtaining financing and funding for business operations, and employee relations, to dissolution.
Probate & Estate Administration
Our firm specializes in Probate and Estate Administration. Probate is the legal process by which a person's debts are paid and assets are distributed upon her or his death. Lawyers refer to the entity that owns the deceased's assets until those assets are distributed as an "estate." Estate Administration includes the probate process as well as non-probate transfers of the deceased's assets. Individual state laws direct the probate court how to distribute the deceased's estate. State laws and procedures vary greatly, so, it is important to consult a firm with expertise in this area of the law to ensure that the deceased's assets are distributed correctly.
Real Estate
Our firm represents both commercial clients and individuals in all proceedings and transactions that deal with real property-land and the structures attached to it-including purchase and sale, construction, mortgages and foreclosures, leases, zoning, title examinations, quiet title actions, closings, and management. Our closing attorneys are members of the Attorney's Title Insurance Fund and are approved agents for First American Title Insurance, Old Republic National Title Insurance Company, and Chicago Title Insurance Company. Our attorneys will work with realtors and attorneys to provide a comprehensive approach to property closings.
Construction Law
Our firm handles all aspects of construction law including contract review and drafting, nonpayment claims, lien claims, bond claims, construction defects, breach of construction or lending agreements, and fraud. Our attorneys represent developers, builders, contractors, and owners, providing them with a unique perspective to each client’s claims.
Land use and Development

Our attorneys coordinate all aspects of the approval process for complex developments including the supervision of technical consultants, presentations before governmental bodies and also serve as the primary contact for the client so that the client may quickly and efficiently learn the status of the approval process at all times. |
