The purpose of a consultation is to determine whether our firm is a good fit for your legal needs. Although we often discuss expected results and costs, our attorneys do not give legal advice unless and until you choose to retain us.

Being a member of multiple bar associations ensures our lawyers hold themselves to the highest legal standards.
Legal issues rarely arise at a good time. Divorce can affect your finances and parenting time. A dispute with a business partner can put years of work at risk. Your family may be in mourning when a probate matter arises. When deadlines, court procedures and financial consequences are involved, a contract, a traffic charge or a real estate matter can be stressful.
O’Flaherty Law provides legal services to individuals, families, property owners and businesses in Oak Park and throughout Cook County. We want to demystify the legal process and give our clients a clear roadmap on how to proceed. Our lawyers explain the issues, discuss realistic options and keep you informed as your matter progresses.
Oak Park is a community where family living, local businesses, historical homes, rental properties and professional careers come together. Residents may face different legal issues at different stages of life. Working with a full-service law firm can help you address those concerns without having to start from scratch each time a new issue arises.
Our Oak Park attorneys help clients with a wide variety of legal matters in Illinois. Sometimes the problem can be solved through careful planning or negotiation. Others may need formal court action. Whichever applies, the first step is to understand the facts, the law and the practical options available to you.
Our legal services may include:
Legal issues can intersect. A divorce can involve a business interest or real estate. Probate cases can include matters involving a trust or property. Business Disputes: A business dispute can be a contract, employment issue or lawsuit. Our attorneys can work together when several areas of law intersect to address the bigger picture.
One client came to O’Flaherty Law for help with a will and trust. Like many people starting the estate planning process, the client found the subject intimidating. Estate planning is dealing with unfamiliar documents, difficult questions about the future and making decisions about property, loved ones and who should act for you if you can’t make decisions for yourself.
The goal was to make the process easier for the client to grasp. The client was walked through the estate planning process, demystifying something that had seemed intimidating and making it easy to understand and didn’t allow unfamiliar documents and terminology to get in the way.
That experience is a vital part of legal representation. Clients need to know what’s going on in their matter and why. Whether you are working on an estate plan, preparing for a divorce, responding to a lawsuit or dealing with a business dispute, straightforward communication can help you make informed decisions.
The foundation of a good attorney-client relationship is to listen. Before your attorney can formulate a legal strategy, he or she needs to know your story, what matters most to you, and the result you hope to achieve. The facts, deadlines, finances and risks are different. Two cases in the same area of law can call for very different approaches.
At O’Flaherty Law, we are focused on practical legal advice and open communication. Your lawyer can walk you through the steps of your case, point out important deadlines, discuss possible outcomes and help you weigh the costs and benefits of different options. If negotiation is the right approach, the goal may be to resolve the dispute without too much conflict. Preparation is especially important when court action is necessary.
The decisions of the law often have effects beyond the courtroom. A family law agreement can set out parenting arrangements for years ahead. A business contract can have an impact on future growth. An estate plan can determine how easily assets transfer to loved ones. Legal advice should take into account the immediate issue and the longer-term effect.
Finding an Oak Park attorney is about more than just finding someone who understands the law in Illinois. You want a legal team that communicates clearly, respects your priorities, treats your case as more than a file number.
O’Flaherty Law is built on the idea of “Your Community Law Firm,” with lawyers who practice in many different areas of the law. For Oak Park residents, that might mean having one law firm to turn to as legal needs change over time. Our team can see how one legal matter may affect another part of your life, family, property or business instead of looking at each problem in isolation.
If you have a legal problem learning about your rights, duties and options early can help you avoid unpleasant surprises. A consultation gives you a chance to tell us your situation, learn whether there are any legal issues that may be involved, and determine the next practical step.
