Our Firm Advantage
As a small law firm led by experienced business and trial lawyer David T. Arena, we offer the adaptability, responsiveness and efficiency you likely won't find at a large firm. We make prompt, accessible service a priority.
Our small size enables us to truly understand clients' unique needs. It also allows us to address those needs in a cost-effective manner. We excel at finding creative strategies for achieving clients' goals without straying beyond their economic constraints or the prenegotiated financial parameters of the engagement. When appropriate, we resolve disputes through alternative dispute resolution methods to save clients time and money. At the same time, however, our firm is always prepared to proceed to trial.
We serve a diverse range of clients, and we try to provide continuing legal counsel. If you're weighing your options, we can discuss laws that may impact your proceedings. When you're involved in litigation, you can leave negotiations to our firm. We may find a simple way for you and the other party to reach an amicable settlement.

The Role of Our Chicagoland Contract Dispute Attorneys
We try to resolve construction disputes in a manner that is practical from a business perspective, cost-effective and at the earliest stage possible. That may involve mediation, arbitration or other forms of alternative dispute resolution. Resolving disputes might require only a letter informing the other side of what is at issue and how it can be resolved, or it might require a trial and/or appeal. Our attorneys have been litigating construction disputes for many years. We are equally adept in the courtroom and at the negotiating table. We work with consultants whenever necessary to help our clients prevail.
