Luke Chiarelli On His Style

There are a lot of very good attorneys in the world, but few who actually own businesses and commercial real estate themselves. In addition to practicing law, being a die-hard Cubbie fan and an avid snow boarder, Luke owns several commercial properties and a community based residential facility. The ongoing commercial real estate and business experience allows Luke to truly identify with his clients as they make their way through the business world. Add to his experience a healthy dose of style, and a little humor, and Luke is an attorney apart from the crowd… an attorney with moxie.

Beyond the Firm

Everyone who knows Luke, knows that for him there is nothing beyond the Firm. Luke’s clients and their families are his and his family’s best friends. How many of you have had your kid ask to make sure your attorney attends their wedding? How many of you have your attorney’s personal cell phone number… and know that it is okay to use it at 1:00am? Luke goes to several of his clients' kids weddings each year and they all have his personal cell number for use during the 1:00am panic.

Defining Legal Moment

Realizing that my clients were also my best friends… 1990.
