My expertise is in guiding clients through the legal landscape of loan modifications and workouts as well as complex title matters. I use a common sense approach to help clients achieve their goals while minimizing the time and cost to accomplish them.I am a member of the Illinois State Bar Association and a past chair of the Commercial, Banking, Bankruptcy and Collections section council.
