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.
Kevin's firm handled setting up my will and trust recently. They took something that seemed intimidating and made it easy to understand. I've also referred a couple clients to Kevin - he's trustworthy, approachable and very fairly priced.
"I've used Kevin and his firm's services since 2011. He gave undivided attention to my cases, advised me on different options and..."

In this article, our Saint Charles contract lawyers explain some of the situations in which business owners should consult their attorneys, including drafting employment agreements, independent contractor agreements, and employee handbooks; stock purchase agreements, asset purchase agreements, and mergers and acquisitions; commercial leases; customer contracts; contracts with vendors and other third parties with whom you do business regularly; and partnership agreements, operating agreements and bylaws.
In this article, our Saint Charles contract lawyers explain the process of having your contract reviewed by an attorney. The first step is to prepare a Letter of Intent, a non-binding document that sets forth the basic substantive terms of the contract to which the parties agree. This prevents the parties from expending time and money on a contract before having a meeting of the minds. Next, one of the parties' attorneys will prepare an initial draft of the contract based on the terms of the LOI. The other party's attorney will then prepare an opinion letter, pointing out any points of concern in the contract.
In this article, our Saint Charles merger and acquisition lawyers explain the importance of incliduing attorney fee clauses in all of your contracts. Attorney fee clauses provide that if a dispute arises between the parties to a contract, the losing party will pay the prevailing party's attorney fees. These clauses discourage frivolous litigation and make meritorious litigation economically feasible.
