Areas of Practice

Eviction and Foreclosure Defense

 

You don’t have to fight alone when your home is threatened. From notice and service defects to counterclaims for unfair and deceptive business practices, we can help you assert your rights.

Tenants’ rights

 

If your landlord won’t repair your unit, won’t return your security deposit, or is overcharging your rent, we can fight for the money you’re owed. From pre-tenancy lease review to post-tenancy walk-through, we’ve got you covered. Plus, we can protect your Section 8 voucher.

Discrimination and sexual harassment

 

Whether in housing, employment, or everyday life, the person you are is worthy of respect. If someone treated you differently on the basis of race, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, or disability we can help vindicate your rights.

Debt collection defense

 

Just because a debt collector says you owe money doesn’t mean you actually do. We can dispute those debts, stop harassing calls from debt collectors, and make sure your rights are respected.

Traffic court

 

When your driver’s license is threatened, your livelihood comes under attack. We can help to make sure all of your rights are protected and keep you on the road.

Predatory lending

 

Did your bank promise you a different interest rate than the one you received? Do you owe more on your loan than you did when you started? We can help.

Civil litigation and appeals - including brief ghostwriting

 

We don’t just talk the talk. From administrative proceedings to district courts, from the circuit court of Cook County to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, we’re willing to take our cases to trial and beyond. If you need a lawyer with experience from filing complaints to arguing appeals, call us today. And if you’re a lawyer who needs a brief or pleading written fast, well, and at a flat rate, we’re available.
