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.

Choosing the right structure for your business is a foundational decision that affects every aspect of your operations, from liability to taxation. Our business law attorneys guide clients through the intricacies of business formation, helping them select the structure that best suits their needs.
Common Business Structures Include:
Each type of business entity comes with its own set of advantages, responsibilities, and legal implications. For instance, while a sole proprietorship offers simplicity, a corporation provides limited liability and easier access to capital. Our role is to ensure that your business structure aligns with your goals and offers the most benefits.
Contracts are the lifeblood of any business, outlining the rights and responsibilities of all parties involved. They are essential tools for managing relationships with partners, suppliers, employees, and customers. Our business law firm specializes in drafting, reviewing, and enforcing contracts to protect your interests.
Types of Contracts We Handle:
A well-crafted contract not only clarifies expectations but also serves as a critical asset in resolving disputes and preventing litigation.
Consider the story of Sarah, a local Palatine entrepreneur who faced a significant contract dispute with a major supplier. The disagreement stemmed from ambiguities in the contract terms regarding the quality of the supplied materials. This dispute threatened her production line and, potentially, her business’s reputation.
Sarah turned to our business litigation law firm for assistance. Our lawyers swiftly stepped in to review the contract, identify the key issues, and negotiate with the supplier. Through a series of strategic discussions, we were able to reach a settlement that not only resolved the immediate issue but also strengthened the contract terms to prevent future disputes. This proactive approach saved Sarah’s business from costly downtime and potential legal battles.

Once signed, the parties involved are considered legally bound to the contract terms, but you may still have 3 to 5 days to back out of a contract. We will explain the general rule that contracts are effective when signed, and discuss some exceptions, such as contracts that are subject to the FTC’s three-day cooling off period, contracts of particular types for which state statute creates a right to revoke, and situations surrounding the signing of the contract that may lead to a valid defense.
