About Sven

I have spent the vast majority of my life in the Chicagoland area.  I was born in Chicago and grew up in the northwest suburbs.  I attended the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, where I obtained a degree in Psychology.  I received my J.D. from the Michigan State University College of Law in Lansing, Michigan.

I returned to my roots in the Chicagoland area to practice law. I have several years involvement with the Veterans Legal Support Center & Clinic in Chicago.  I have also been a speaker at Continuing Legal Education seminar (classes for current lawyers), educating other attorneys in this field.  

Additionally, I have experience working with a wide assortment of other areas of law, from securities dealings to property to embezzlement-related issues.
