We do this by fostering mutual trust, remaining loyal to our clients, and consistently putting our clients’ best interests first.

RD is proud of its long-standing and distinguished history of representing diverse client industries, including privately-owned businesses, financial institutions, municipalities, other public entities, real estate owners and developers, contractors, sureties, healthcare practices, non-profit organizations, and individuals. We seek to efficiently handle the most routine to highly complex transactions while providing skilled counsel throughout all stages of each matter.

Our Firm is committed to providing clients with the highest quality legal services. We fulfill this promise by hiring and supporting talented and dedicated attorneys. Our attorneys not only have the knowledge and in-depth experience, but they also have significant insight into how various practice areas affect each other and impact our clients.

RD understands many business transactions and disputes create unique challenges and risks for our clients. We consider our clients’ values, risk profiles, legal and business objectives, and short and long-term priorities in order to reach creative and effective solutions to satisfy their needs. This requires that our lawyers work together across practice areas as integrated, multidisciplinary teams to provide the insights and capabilities necessary to generate exceptional results.

We have 60 attorneys who are licensed to practice in Illinois and several other Midwest states, as well as in numerous United States District Courts and Courts of Appeals, and the United States Supreme Court.

RD seeks to never lose sight of the most important component of a successful law practice: The Client.
