Listing areas of expertise does not tell the full story of what a municipality needs from its attorneys. It is not just what an attorney can do, but how an attorney does it. Attorneys of Filippini Law Firm LLP not only strive to deliver services in a responsive and cost-effective manner, but they also explain their advice so that clients can understand the legal options available to them. Moreover, our attorneys know how to draw the fine line between setting policy and advising with regard to the formulation of policy. We are committed to the faithful execution of policy as established by the policy makers.
Direitos do Consumidor
Although we try to steer our clients clear of the courthouse, our clients are in good hands if they face a lawsuit. Whether through pre-trial motions, trials, or appeals, all of our attorneys have demonstrated expertise in litigation at both the State and federal levels, as well as before various administrative agencies.
Our attorneys have successfully prosecuted and defended constitutional claims under the first, second, fifth, and fourteenth amendments of the United States Constitution, as well as claims involving zoning, subdivision, annexation, condemnation, inverse condemnation, civil rights, RLUIPA, antitrust, contract, tort, tax, employment discrimination, construction, consumer protection, environmental, and other issues. We have appeared before various state trial and appellate courts and administrative tribunals in Illinois and Florida, as well as federal courts in the Seventh, Third, Ninth, and Eleventh (formerly Fifth) Circuits. We have been involved in numerous significant cases that have helped shape the law as we know it today.
