## Practice Areas

### Breach of Contract
Enforcing agreements and securing remedies when promises are broken. Whether you need to enforce a contract or defend against a breach claim, we provide strategic representation.

### Complex Commercial Litigation
When business disputes escalate beyond simple contract claims, you need experienced trial counsel who can navigate the complexity. We handle the full spectrum of commercial litigation — from tortious interference and fiduciary duty breaches to multi-party business conflicts.

### IP Litigation
With 9+ years of combined in-house and law firm experience, we bring litigation skill, technical understanding, and a track record of results to every case — from patent infringement claims to multimillion-dollar trade secret trials.

### Technology and Software
Our attorneys build AI-powered applications and own a SaaS company — so we understand modern software from the inside. That hands-on experience makes a difference when advising on AI governance, negotiating SaaS agreements, or resolving software disputes.

### Fraud
Pursuing justice and recovery in cases of deception or financial misconduct. We represent clients who have been victims of fraud, misrepresentation, and dishonest business practices.

### HOA Disputes
Guiding homeowners and associations through fair resolution of conflicts. Whether you are a homeowner or an association, we help resolve disputes efficiently and equitably.

### Title VII Discrimination/Employment Disputes
Standing up against workplace discrimination, wrongful termination, and employment disputes. Every employee deserves to work free from discrimination and unlawful treatment, and we fight to protect those rights.

### Real Estate Disclosure Act
Protecting buyers in disputes over hidden property defects. Illinois law requires sellers to disclose known material defects, and we enforce those obligations.

### Patent & Trademark Protection
We help inventors, entrepreneurs, and businesses secure patent and trademark protection that aligns with their commercial strategy. Our engineering background means we understand your technology as well as the law.

### Corporate Transactions
From entity formation through growth and exit, we provide the transactional counsel that businesses need at every stage. Our practice combines commercial awareness with disciplined legal execution to support your most important business decisions.

### Personal Injury
Helping accident victims recover compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We have recovered millions for our clients and will fight relentlessly for you.
