Ignore the Terms of Your Parenting Agreement at Your Own Peril – a Lavelle Law Success Story. ✅This is another case where our relentless advocacy wins big for our client!

Our client endured years of his ex ignoring her transportation duties in their Parenting Agreement. Attorney Annette Corrigan stepped in, thoroughly documented the violations, proved years of compliance on child support, and made strong settlement offers. When negotiations failed, Corrigan fought hard in court, resulting in victory on every issue, including child support arrearages cut in half and the opposing party ordered to pay a substantial portion of our client’s attorney’s fees!

🚨Important Update for Auto Dealers: FTC Cracks Down on Advertising Practices. On 3.13.26, the Federal Trade Commission sent warning letters to 97 dealerships nationwide. The FTC is enforcing a new interpretation of Section 5 of the FTC Act focused on price transparency in vehicle advertising.

Key points dealers need to know:
🔹Advertised prices must reflect all required fees (including Illinois Doc Fee and ERT Fee)
🔹You can no longer advertise a price with rebates/discounts not available to everyone
🔹Advertised prices must take into account the required down payment amount
🔹FTC guidance now preempts conflicting state rules on fee disclosure

🇺🇸 With Memorial Day sales approaching, it’s a crucial time for dealers to revisit their advertising practices. Even if your dealership didn’t receive a letter, you should review your ads, websites, and marketing materials. Read the full article by Sarah J.

On March 13, 2026, the Federal Trade Commission sent warning letters to 97 dealerships nationwide concerning their advertising practices. This article addresses the practical implications of the FTC’s stance on dealer advertising and what dealers need to know to remain in compliance.

Success in Probate Litigation! Lavelle Law Attorney Nataly Kaiser successfully defended our client against procedural delays in a contentious property dispute. After the opposing party attempted to introduce non-compliant witnesses just before trial, the trial court barred their testimony. When they filed an interlocutory appeal under Supreme Court Rule 307(a)(1), the Appellate Court dismissed it for lack of jurisdiction, ruling that the order was a discovery sanction, not an appealable injunction. This key victory removes a major roadblock and allows the case to move forward toward trial on the merits. Read the full Success Story: https://bit.ly/4eiHBeI

Losing your job or having your hours reduced doesn’t have to mean losing your health insurance. COBRA provides a vital safety net, allowing you and your family to continue your employer-sponsored group health coverage, but the rules, timelines, and responsibilities are strict and notice-driven.

Key points every employee and employer should know:
• Which plans are covered
• What counts as a “qualifying event”
• Critical notice deadlines (employer & employee responsibilities)
• 60-day election window
• Retroactive coverage when elected properly

Understanding COBRA can prevent costly gaps in coverage during life’s unexpected transitions. Read the full explanation here: https://bit.ly/41Zlv9K
