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..."
"Kevin was extremely professional, responsive and knowledgeable when I came to him for help. I would definitely recommend O'Flaherty Law!"

Employees can view and access their personnel records twice a year while employed and up to a year after termination. They also can access their employer's personnel records as long as they pay copying fees.
In Illinois there's no law requiring an employer to create personnel files for employees and an employee may only review records if they exist. Employers must retain any and all documentation to support termination in that employees' personnel file, otherwise it becomes inadmissible in court as evidence in any future litigation.
We discuss an employer's duty to pay the full amount that has been worked to an employee that is terminated during the next payroll period. An employee that is withheld payments is due the wages, but also attorney fees and 2% a month for every month wages have been withheld due to the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act.
Causes protect the interests of businesses and are used in independent contractor and employment agreements. Our Tinley Park employment attorneys explain these clauses and their benefits. Some of these clauses include non-solicitation, non-compete, non-disparagement and trade secret clauses.
