So Many Crimes In Revenge Of The Nerds

Growing up I loved to rent and watch movies back when you went to Blockbuster or the town video store to actually rent a movie. I loved “Animal House” but now that I’m older I can see that while it was hilarious, there is also a really disturbing rape situation going on. I also enjoyed […]

Can An Illinois Attorney Have Sex With A Client?

This was almost a one word blog post. The answer is no. But I’ve heard stories of this happening so often in the last year that I thought it was worth expanding on. When you hire a lawyer (or doctor, psychologist, probably real estate agent, many other professions) to represent you in a case, there […]

Illinois QDRO Lawyers And Lazy Attorneys

How To Fix The NCAA Realignment Problem

I have a son who plays high level soccer. He will often travel 3-5 hours to play a game. It’s fun to see him against other teams, but there are also times when I think it’s dumb as there is so much great competition within an hour of where his club is based. Other times […]

Are Some Illinois Personal Injury Lawyers Getting Scummier?

Growing up I heard the term ambulance chaser. It’s meant to describe a low life personal injury attorney who would follow an ambulance to a hospital and try to sign up a client. The image is of an unkempt person with a bad suit and bad haircut. I never imagined that could be a reality, […]

Illinois Lawyers Who Will Sue Other Lawyers

One big misconception I hear from the public a lot is that attorneys will cover for each other when one of them does something wrong.

Chicago Police Are Raping Immigrants

Over the weekend there was an article in the Sun Times that had a headline stating police in Chicago are being investigated for possible improper sexual conduct with immigrants.

Big Reason For Tesla Personal Injury Lawsuits In Illinois

Electric cars are all the rage and that makes sense. They are new. They are cool. And with the high cost of gas they make economic sense for many people in the long run. And they are getting better and better every year. I’m not an Elon Musk fan, so I’d never buy a Tesla, […]
