Cook county fair housing ESA

Anyone have experience with emotional service animal requests when your insurance doesn't allow for pets?  Cook County, not Chicago.  Wondering how denials have been handled and I think the rules have changed in the forums so I don't think I can post requesting lawyer recs, but happy to get DMs.

Thanks for reading.

@Jerry N. this is one of those frustrating areas where you have very limited control. You cannot deny a true ESA, despite what your insurance says. This is not a pet at this point. I can put you in touch with an attorney, but the rules are pretty clear on ESA's.
