Sex Crimes
Title IX, the federal law ensuring equal education opportunities for students regardless of gender, has also been interpreted as a mandate to protect students from sexual assault or harassment. The Illinois Human Rights Act also protects students from multiple forms of discrimination. School administrators must carefully follow the requirements to investigate and punish those acts barred under the law in order to avoid loss of federal funding, while also protecting the rights of the accused. Negotiating Title IX issues involves a careful balance of interests, requiring an experienced hand. At Pluymert, MacDonald, Hargrove & Lee, our attorneys understand the delicate nature of these claims, and have the legal knowledge and discretion to resolve them effectively.
Fraud
A legal claim for business fraud requires a plaintiff to prove that the accused made a misrepresentation of a material fact, done for the purpose of gaining agreement to the terms of a contract, and that the misrepresentation harms the deceived party. The misrepresented fact could be on the subject of the financial projections for an investment, the condition of a property for sale, the intention of the party to make full payment for a service, or any other subject significant enough to cause someone to enter into a contract with the fraudster. The lie must also be either intentional or made when the accused has good reason to know that the statement isnâ€™t true.

Workers Compensation
Well-drafted, thorough, release agreements can go far to protect your business from legal claimsâ€”indeed, many people wonâ€™t even explore their legal options if theyâ€™ve signed a liability waiver. But, itâ€™s important to recognize that release agreements do not provide absolute protection. Some claims canâ€™t be released by law, such as claims available under workers compensation laws, or for criminal acts. Other claims, such as deliberate acts that cause an injury or bad faith actions, wonâ€™t typically be covered by a release. In some states, a release wonâ€™t be effective against claims that are unknown at the time of the release. Minors whose parents sign releases can generally still raise a claim themselves if they do so promptly. Releases are usually targeted at the effects of negligent actions.

Employment issues on public school campuses not only involve traditional labor and employment issues, such as wrongful termination, but also involve negotiation with unions, federal and state laws unique to education, and tenure disputes.

His extensive experience in the field of Illinois education law will provide you with peace of mind that your teacher employment dispute will be capably handled.
Employment Contract
A critical step in the hiring process is creating a reliable and effective employment agreement. Having a well-crafted, thorough, and legally sound employment agreement is as important for churches and other non-profit organizations as it is for any other business entity. Itâ€™s important to ensure that your employment agreements protect the interests of your organization while also protecting your employeesâ€™ legal rights. Special considerations apply when drafting employment agreements for religious organizations.

Non-compete Agreement
That said, even noncompete agreements which meet these standards cannot be used with every employee. The Illinois Freedom to Work Act, which was signed into law in August of 2016, prohibits employers from including noncompete clauses in contracts with â€œlow-wage employees.â€ In other words, if a worker earns $13.00 per hour or the minimum wage, whichever is greater, employers cannot place restrictions on that employee working for another employer for a certain length of time, doing similar work, or working in a certain geographic area after leaving their employ.

Real Estate Litigation
Having â€œvalid titleâ€ to property means that a person or entity has the full, exclusive legal right to the use and ownership of a piece of property. There are a number of ways in which a title might be defective, meaning that some legal problem prevents a person from having full ownership of the property. Often, these problems are unknown or deliberately concealed at the time of purchase. If the title to a property is defective, a seller may need to initiate certain legal actions in order to clear the title or remedy title defects prior to effecting a proper sale.
