The financial pressures of city life can be immense.

Navigating the Cook County Legal System with Confidence
Practicing law in Chicago means practicing in one of the largest and busiest judicial circuits in the nation. Success here requires more than just knowing the law; it requires firsthand experience with the local procedures, judges, and administrative intricacies of the Circuit Court of Cook County, headquartered at the Richard J. Daley Center.
Our attorneys regularly represent clients in Cook County courtrooms. We understand the local rules and how to move cases forward efficiently within this complex system.

Frequently Asked Questions for Our Chicago Clients
Do you handle cases at the Daley Center?
Yes. We frequently represent clients in matters filed at the Richard J. Daley Center, which is the primary courthouse for civil litigation and domestic relations (family law) cases in Cook County. Our experience there is a direct benefit to our clients.
What makes a legal case in Chicago different from the suburbs?
The primary differences are the volume of cases, the specific local rules of the Cook County Circuit Court, and often the complexity of the issues involved, particularly in high-net-worth divorce and significant personal injury cases. Navigating this system efficiently requires an attorney who is a regular practitioner there.
