Without skilled legal representation, gaining the disability benefits you deserve is not easy. Neither is winning a personal injury claim.
Both processes can be complex and confusing, full of places where a seemingly simple misstep or two can make a big difference. Your claim might take longer. Or it may be completely denied.
That is where Chicago Personal Injury and Social Security disability lawyer Richard I. Feingold comes in.
They provide assistance with personal injury claims, social security disability, and supplemental security income.

Hospitality & Tourism Summit Chicago 2021 |
The Lakeview East Chamber of Commerce will have a booth the Hospitality and Tourism Summit at Navy Pier on June 8th, 2021. We would love for you to stop by and visit us! |
The market is reopening. Are you ready? Ask yourself:
- Do you have a marketing plan for rebuilding your tourism, group, and events business?
- Have you reconnected with hotel concierge and guest services professionals to attract more visitors?
- Have you reached out to meeting and event planners to let them know you’re open and ready for hosting groups safely?
- Given the city is opening up, can you count on simple word of mouth to attract the tourists and/or groups and private events to fill your expanded occupancy?
If you answered "no" to any of these questions, you need to exhibit at the 20th Annual Hospitality & Tourism Trade Show on June 8th in the Aon Grand Ballroom (and 4 adjacent spaces for social distancing) at Navy Pier.
