Bellas & Wachowski - Attorneys at Law

Divorce
Child Support
It's not a discretionary consumer purchase such as grooming your dog, using a travel agent, or dry-cleaning. Many of our clients are people of modest means who must hire counsel to seek delinquent child support or custody of their children or request a guardianship for a sick, elderly parent.
Child Custody and Visitation
Paternity
Tracy has also closed real estate transactions and represented spouses and parents in every aspect of family law proceedings, including divorce proceedings, paternity proceedings, child and spousal support cases, removal cases, restraining orders, orders of protection, and division of assets and debts.
Premarital Agreement
Additionally, Misty represents individuals and families in family and matrimonial law matters, including separation, divorce, custody, visitation and support, maintenance and alimony, and prenuptial and postnuptial agreements.
Guardianship
Spousal Support

Criminal Defense
People accused of crimes need to have a lawyer on their side as soon as possible. Police and other authorities are well-trained at getting confessions out of people, and often use people's words against them later. Criminal defense lawyers know their tricks, and can protect clients from them.
DUI/DWI
Wrongful Death
Accidents or illnesses can arise in virtually any profession. They may result from a sudden trauma, such as a car accident or a slip and fall, or they may develop over time, such as carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive stress injuries. Workers can seek benefits under the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Act if they were injured or became ill on the job. The workers’ compensation system awards benefits regardless of fault, even if the worker was at fault for the accident. It offers reimbursement for medical treatment and partial wage replacement, in addition to services such as vocational rehabilitation in some cases. Benefits can be awarded as a lump sum or in periodic installments. Wrongful Death
Sex Crimes
Once again Bellas & Wachowski Walked a Mile in Her Shoes! Peter Wachowski put on her shoes, walked the walk, and is talking the talk to stop rape, sexual assault, and gender violence.
Fraud
Theft
Drug Crimes
Assault
Murder
Shoplifting
For example, we are trying to find ways to provide further help to people accused of shoplifting. Not only do they suffer punishments from the state — often they are also extorted for more money by the store. At this writing, our Chicago criminal lawyers are looking into the possibility of starting a class action lawsuit on behalf the people undergoing this injustice.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Formation
Choosing the appropriate form for your business can have significant implications down the road. For example, your personal assets may be at stake if you form a sole proprietorship or a partnership, while starting a limited liability company can help you avoid this exposure. Forming certain types of businesses, such as corporations, may involve meeting specific requirements at the outset and maintaining compliance through the course of its operations. We can help you understand the advantages and disadvantages of any business form, and we can make sure that you meet the requirements of the formation process. Business Operations

Workers Compensation
When you suffer a workplace injury, you deserve compensation for any and all medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. It does not matter who was at fault, as long as the injury occurred in the course of work. Most employers must, by law, carry workers' compensation insurance, and must provide you with the necessary forms if you ask.
Employment Discrimination
We advance all costs. Your initial consult or visit to our law firm is free. If you are injured in an automobile crash or other accident, have been hurt on the job, have suffered employment discrimination or are simply interested in civil law, we invite you to visit our offices for a CONFIDENTIAL CONSULTATION.
Employment Litigation
Our business clients rely on us for transactions and litigation involving commercial, corporate, financial and real estate matters, employment counseling and litigation advice. We handle complex legacy planning to personal employment issues to complex trust and other litigation. Our experienced Chicago business litigation lawyers have collectively handled hundreds of lawsuits in local, state and federal courts, as well as in mediations and arbitrations.
Non-compete Agreement
Non-compete covenants (commonly known as a "covenant not to compete" or CNC) have been a legal component of the commercial world for decades, but the enforcement landscape has always unpredictable. Just because you hold in your hand a signed copy of a non-compete agreement from a former employee or business partner does not mean you will be able to make the terms stick, especially in Illinois.

Real Estate Litigation
At Bellas & Wachowski Attorneys at Law, we have a wide-ranging real estate practice. Our Chicago real estate lawyers help individuals with residential transactions and also assist businesses with many complex commercial real estate matters. Residential Real Estate

Property Damage
If you have been injured in an accident caused by someone else’s carelessness, you have legal rights to assert. Victims can retain a Chicago personal injury lawyer to bring a negligence claim against a person or entity that harmed them, seeking compensation for their costs and losses. You need to take action promptly if you are in this situation, since the Illinois statute of limitations restricts the time in which you can bring a claim. In many cases, victims can recover both economic and non-economic damages for their injuries, including medical expenses, lost income and earning capacity, property damage, pain and suffering, and lost enjoyment of life. Car Accidents

Personal Injury
Moreover, our personal injury attorneys fight for the rights of accident victims in a wide range of cases, such as motor vehicle collisions, incidents involving defective products, and construction accidents and other workplace injuries. We understand the difficulties that confront injured people and their families in the wake of a devastating accident, and we are here to provide the compassionate, knowledgeable, and dedicated advocacy that you deserve. Let us help you get back on your feet and hold accountable anyone who may have harmed you.
Medical Malpractice
Property owners have an obligation to keep their property in an appropriate condition for people who come onto it. An owner needs to take reasonable steps to address any defects or dangerous conditions on the property of which they know or reasonably would be expected to know. Many slip and fall cases hinge on the question of whether a reasonable property owner would have known about a certain hazard, such as spilled liquid, uneven pavement, or a broken step. At Bellas & Wachowski, we can help you collect evidence to prove how long a hazard existed and show a property owner’s liability for it. Medical Malpractice
