About Shamuel PLLC

Founding Attorney

Ronnie C. Shamuel

---

Ronnie C. Shamuel has spent years as an in-house corporate attorney and general counsel, advising companies from the inside as they grew. Ronnie founded Shamuel PLLC to bring that experience to business owners and families, with direct access to the attorney.

Working in-house means sitting on the business side of the table: negotiating contracts the company will have to live with, structuring transactions around budgets and deadlines, and building the legal foundation a company needs as it adds employees, customers, and investors. Ronnie applies the same practical approach to every client, whether the matter is a company's contracts or a family's estate plan.

Ronnie's practice covers estate planning, business law, and real estate. The three areas come up together often. A business owner's estate plan should account for the company, a home purchase should be titled with the estate plan in mind, and a new LLC's operating agreement should say what happens if an owner dies or becomes incapacitated. Handling all three allows Ronnie to catch gaps that are easy to miss when each piece is drafted separately.

Each engagement starts with a meeting to understand your goals, your family or business, and your concerns. Ronnie then recommends a course of action, explains the options and the cost, and drafts documents specific to your situation.

Based in Long Grove, Ronnie serves clients throughout Illinois, meeting in person, by phone, or by video, whichever is most convenient for you.
