Arjun Mehta
Associate
Arjun defends criminal and traffic cases in the county courts, and drafts the contracts and formations small businesses rely on.
Arjun clerked for a circuit judge in northern Illinois before joining the firm. That year taught him how a courtroom looks from the bench, and how much a calm, prepared client helps their own case.
On the business side he sets up companies, reviews leases and handles the sale of a shop from one owner to the next.
Practice areas
- DUI and traffic matters
- Misdemeanor and felony defense

How Arjun works
If you've been charged with something, the first conversation is about the next date on your calendar and what you shouldn't say to anyone before it. Arjun then reads the reports, looks at the evidence and tells you honestly what he sees.
He explains every option, including a plea, a trial and a diversion program where one exists, and the decision stays yours.
For business owners
Arjun drafts the operating agreement before the partners disagree, and reads the lease before it's signed. Most of that work carries a flat fee he quotes in writing.
