Outside general counsel for Naperville and Chicagoland service businesses
Employment Compliance
Legal counsel designed for your business structure
As agencies and professional services firms scale, employment decisions grow more complex. Hiring quickly, engaging contractors, managing performance, and handling terminations without clear legal guidance increases exposure. Many leadership teams rely on informal practices that work—until they don’t. As outsourced general counsel, we provide ongoing employment guidance that helps businesses manage people issues proactively while remaining compliant with Illinois law.
The Legal Challenges We Address
Worker classification issues
Inconsistent employment documentation
Termination and discipline exposure
