Rental lease review by attorney in Aurora or Naperville

Rental lease review by attorney in Aurora or Naperville

I am in my third year of being a landlord and things have been going well. I have a lease in place. I started with a standard lease provided by my realtor and added an addendum to cover things that I felt the standard one did not cover. I am looking for an attorney in the Aurora or Naperville Illinois area to review my lease to make sure that I am managing the property within the local laws as well as to ensure that the lease covers me if I do run into an eviction.

@Bill Flannagan—is your property in Aurora?  If so, make sure you’ve added the city’s required addenda. You would have learned about this in the required landlord training.  As for attorneys, you can try Jason Borg in Lisle or Gary Davidson with Castle Law. Will be interested to see if there are additional recommendations.

    Is this residential or commercial?

    @Heather DeGeorge - The property is in Aurora. I did go through the landlord class with Property Standards and have included the addenda. I will reach out to Jason Borg and Gary Davidson. Thanks for the recommendations.

    @George Skidis—Does LegalShield offer any free services for subscribers?  They have always referred me out to someone that presumably gives a discounted rate for everything except a will.
