Your Chicago Business Attorneys

Our Philosophy

The Business Law Group was founded by Ryan Van Osdol, a well-regarded attorney with extensive experience in civil litigation and providing legal counsel to both businesses and individuals who has been recognized consecutively from 2012 through the present by the Illinois Super Lawyers. Our firm was formed to primarily provide small and medium-sized businesses, as well as their owners and key executives, with cost-effective, best-in-class legal advice and to represent them in various types of lawsuits and other legal matters.

The Business Law Group is committed to helping every business client make informed and intelligent legal decisions, as well as providing them with the most favorable results out of any dispute or litigation. Our team provides expert legal advice on a day-to-day basis and ensures that all of our clients stay on the right side of the law.

Our aggressive and proactive approach in understanding and representing our clients allows us to provide them with the highest quality legal service. More importantly, the Business Law Group values your business as much as you do. We offer our services in a way that won’t financially cripple your hard-earned commercial investment.

With our General Counsel Package—just one of the things that make us strategically and uniquely situated from other firms—you can obtain our legal advice on a regular basis without worrying about high service costs and unknown charges. You only have to pay a flat monthly fee to have a legal expert on hand who can help whenever you need it.
