In addition to villages and cities, Amato Law represent counties, sheriff’s offices, forest preserves, park districts, police departments, fire protection districts, airport authorities, boards of education, building commissions, library boards and districts, interstate compacts, and regional planning agencies.
Amato Law was built after spending 8 years as the elected county state’s attorney tasked with representing both elected and staff officials in the day to day operations of all government operations. It is very unique experience where the state’s attorney is not only chief legal officer of the county but is also the most visible elected official in most jurisdictions. I understand the pressures that all elected officials face when representing the people of communities through some of the most difficult times. It truly is not the same pressures that staff personnel experience in their day to day work. That insight and understanding will prove valuable making sure your entity makes the best choices for the people you represent.
