Additional Information Steve Raminiak concentrates his practice in estate planning as well as the administration of estates and trusts established for decedents, minors and disabled persons. He regularly tackles contested estates, and has been appointed as Guardian ad Litem, Special Administrator, and as counsel for minors and the disabled by Judges in the Probate Division of the Circuit Court of Cook County.

Steve excels at developing estate plans involving blended families, non-traditional relationships and disabled persons. He also advises business entities in regards to succession planning, tax planning and corporate governance issues.

Additionally, Steve regularly donates his time to those with financial hardships. Steve acts as a resource for Chicago Volunteer Legal Services (CVLS) through his service as a Guardian ad Litem and by providing direction to other volunteer attorneys. He has begun the development of a series of seminars on estate administration for CVLS. The first, “Administration of Small, Uncontested Decedent Estates in Cook County, Illinois,” can be viewed online, at no charge at http://www.illinoisprobono.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.dsp_content&contentID=7737. The second, covering Accountings, can be viewed online, at no charge at http://www.illinoisprobono.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.dsp_content&contentID=8012.

Steve also speaks to groups about how to assist elderly or disabled family members with financial and legal issues.

Steve was interviewed by Chicago Lawyer magazine for its lead story on pro bono matters in its September 2011 issue. Here’s a link to the article: http://www.chicagolawyermagazine.com/Articles/2011/09/01/solostory-09-2011.aspx
