Another week, another apparently terrible police involved shooting. This time it was close to home, just over the border in Kenosha where Jacob Blake was shot in front of his kids despite being unarmed. It seems to be another case of unjustified, excessive force. I don’t claim to be an expert on police issues, although […]
We’ve noticed an uptick of late of attorneys in Illinois telling their potential clients what they want to hear. Business is down for a lot of law firms and some are doing whatever they can to land a client. This includes flat out lying. If you were hurt in a car accident and want to […]
It feels a bit morbid to write this, but with Covid-19 and all of the workers who feel unsure about returning to work, especially teachers, we wanted to do something to help out. The reality is that everyone should have some sort of living will that directs what you want to have happen in case […]
In normal times, the Illinois Bar exam would have taken place two weeks ago. Due to Covid it first got pushed to September 9 and 10 and now is going to be online October 5 & 6. I remember a lot from the summer of 1994 when I took the Illinois Bar test. The night […]

Before I talk about workers’ compensation law and Coronavirus, I want to talk about work comp law and marijuana. Long story short, if you get hurt at work and test positive for marijuana, it creates a “rebuttable presumption” that you were high when you got hurt and allows the insurance company to deny your case. […]

The Covid world is new for all of us and constantly changing. I, along with just about every attorney I know, supported the closing of the courthouses while we got things under control. Cook County was extra cautious and kept the courts mostly closed until this week. Some emergency hearings took place, some Zoom status […]
One of the dumbest things we do is punish the poor financially for not having money to pay fines. That leads to a downward cycle that affects them in a bad way. It’s how it has been in Illinois forever when it comes to parking tickets. If you get too many tickets and don’t pay […]
I got a call from a very nice young woman who was injured in a car accident. She was looking to sue her doctor for not diagnosing her injury, but it became clear pretty quickly that she did not have a malpractice case. I asked her if she had a lawyer for the car accident […]
Nobody goes in to a marriage wanting to get a divorce. Most people don’t come out of a divorce saying that it was a great experience. The best result is usually knowing that you are now on to the next chapter of your life. If you are thinking about getting a divorce in Illinois, and […]
Full disclosure. I asked my assistant who is an avid motorcycle rider to contribute to this. She goes across country on her bike every summer and has taught me a lot that is relevant to helping people injured in a motorcycle accident in Illinois. If you would like a free consultation, please call us at […]
If you have attended a protest or march in Chicago in the last week, odds are that you have been peaceful. Despite that, we are seeing scores of people getting arrested and/or being victims of police brutality. Police do not have a right to physically harm peaceful protesters. They do not have a right to […]
I’m a lawyer and even I wouldn’t want to hire a lawyer if I didn’t have to. I’ve paid for an attorney for real estate closings and for a will, but fortunately have never been in a situation where I personally had to shell out thousands for an attorney. Most people don’t want to pay […]
Most divorces are something like “Marriage Story” where there is cheating or a breakdown of communication or a couple seems to fall out of love. It’s painful, but one of you usually files for divorce and the process goes from there. The good news is that over time most people feel better and find themselves […]
There is a terrible trend in today’s celebrity and social media driven world where the loudest person can claim to be an expert on something. Dr. Drew made his fame by giving relationship advice. He then went on to make money by giving substance abuse advice. He recently made terribly wrong predictions about Coronavirus. People […]
With some exceptions for emergency situations and some criminal cases, you can’t have your day in court in Illinois right now. Chief Judge Evans of Cook County announced the other day that the courts will be closed through at least May 31st. I’d quite honestly expect it to go on longer than that. It’s very […]
The last couple of weeks have been draining for everyone. I’ve tried to focus on all of the good that will come out of this like an improved climate. That said, there is a lot of bad that is coming from Coronavirus. I’m not just talking about the deaths, but also the terrible movies that […]
