It’s been about 24 years since I started working as a lawyer. My first job was with a mid-sized firm and they provided me with a lot of training. I had a mentor, a supervisor and was just a shadow for my first couple of months. They brought me along very slowly. I wasn’t in […]
Last month, 22 lawyers were voted for positions as Associate Judge in Cook County. It’s not the public that votes for them, but instead the 249 sitting Judges in Cook County. These associate Judges have mostly the same responsibilities as regular Judges, but typically don’t hear felony cases and earn slightly less. Here is the […]
While most of the Illinois attorneys I come across are honest and do their best for their clients, the reality is that when you have over 90,000 lawyers, some will be unethical. It bothers me because it taints the whole profession and makes the public not trust attorneys. While the reality is that it’s a […]
Some lawyers are just lazy. That is a fact. Others know they aren’t doing what they know is in the best interests of their clients. Nowhere do we see this more than with family law attorneys, specifically when it comes to getting pensions or 401k’s of your spouse. When you get divorced in Illinois, it’s […]
Are there better professionals than nurses? If you’ve ever been in a hospital or had a loved one who needed care, you’d likely agree with me that 99% of nurses do a great job and are often the stars of the show. There are some that don’t do a good job and others that do […]
It used to primarily be that if you had a job that was your only job. You’d work 9 to 5 and go home to your life. That’s certainly not how things are now. We are in the era of grinding and it’s not uncommon for people to have two or even three jobs. If […]
There is a really bad Chicago personal injury law firm that I recently saw advertising looking for a lawyer with at least two years of experience to handle injury cases. First off, if you are in an accident, you don’t want a lawyer with only two years of experience on your case. The lawyer fee […]
We get a lot of calls from people looking to sue their lawyer. We are happy to bring on a legal malpractice case if it’s a good one. In most of the calls though we hear about bad customer service, lack of effort or bad results on a case. Those things are unfortunate, but don’t […]
Here’s a scenario that nobody wants to be in, but sadly happens all of the time: You find yourself in this situation where a loved one dies. A couple of weeks later you file a life insurance claim. Shortly after that you get a wordy letter notifying you that the life insurance company will not […]

It’s almost stunning that Coronavirus isn’t behind us yet. Unfortunately it’s still here and going strong, although not as bad in Illinois as places like Texas and Florida. Certainly the most common question we have received of late is can an employer require you to get a Covid vaccine? The answer, with very limited exceptions, […]
There has been a phenomenon in the last ten years or so of attorneys spending millions on billboards and TV ads to try and get personal injury clients. It’s scummy to me, but not against the law. Some of these big spenders are actual Chicago law firms. Others are actually based in places like Florida, […]

One of the best additions to Chicago in the last 20 years has been Maggie Daley Park. It’s made Grant Park and The Loop even better. It’s not just The Bean, the ice skating, or the mini-golf. The playground at Maggie Daley Park is one of the nicest around. I have great memories of taking […]
Illinois medical malpractice lawsuits are unique as compared to other injury cases like car accidents in many ways. They are harder to win, they are much more complex and unlike a car accident lawsuit that can be filed in a day or two if you have a police report, a medical malpractice lawsuit usually takes […]
In general, I think most Illinois attorneys are honest. Human nature, however, makes many people afraid of confrontation or unwilling to tell people something they don’t want to hear. These traits, and a worry about getting sued, unfortunately lead some attorneys to lie. So I get calls all of the time that start out something […]
The most common questions we get when someone is arrested in Chicago or anywhere else in Cook County are as follows: Who is the best Chicago criminal defense lawyer near me? What’s it going to cost me? I’ve had other posts on who the best is. Briefly, it depends on which court you are going […]
