FAMILY LAW
I have represented hundreds of women and men in divorce, dissolution of marriage, parentage and paternity matters, child support, visitation problems, custody and change of custody and pre/post nuptial agreements. As a compassionate attorney who has experienced divorce and visitation issues, I will take the time to explain your options and the financial ramifications of your decisions. I will address your specific problems promptly and professionally and I believe that I can help you have a more positive experience with this complex legal process.
REAL ESTATE
I represent property owners and managers of apartment complexes in Cook and Dupage Counties, totaling over 10,000 units. I have litigated thousands of Forcible Entry and Detainer cases and have defended landlords in most every type of landlord-tenant dispute. I represent Buyers and Sellers of commercial and residential properties and provide title insurance through Attorneys' Title Guaranty Fund, Inc.
PROBATE
I am an experienced practitioner in Probate Court, handling decedent's estates and minor and disabled adult guardianship cases. I recommend that every client have their own will. When you don't have your own will, the State of Illinois provides one for you by law; however, it may not reflect your specific personal intentions. I can help you plan your estate so that your desires are properly and promptly administered.
