Senior counsel on every matter

I.The Standard

We are not for everyone.

  1. We try the cases other firms settle.

  2. We take the clients other firms decline.

  3. We answer to a short list, not a full lobby.

The discipline is deliberate. Arami Law accepts a limited number of matters each year so that every one of them is prepared by senior counsel, never delegated and never templated, and prepared for trial from the first filing. If the other side knows you are ready for the courtroom, most matters never need one.

Our clients are Chicago business owners and professionals with a lifetime of work on the table. They do not need reassurance. They need a result.

If you are a professional or business owner looking for a family law attorney who operates with the precision of a corporate strategist, I cannot recommend Kourosh Arami highly enough. Going into a complex divorce involving significant real estate, income disparities, and aggressive financial demands from opposing counsel, I needed an attorney who understood risk mitigation and return on investment. Kourosh delivered on every front. From day one, Kourosh treated my case like a high-stakes business dissolution. He does not waste time on emotional arguments or petty disputes; instead, he builds an evidence-based, data-driven strategy to protect your wealth, your property, and your future income. His performance in court and during pre-trial conference was exceptional. When opposing counsel walked in demanding excessive, multi-year spousal maintenance, the assumption of massive unilateral debts, and the forced liquidation of property, Kourosh completely neutralized their leverage. He expertly navigated the judge's chambers, forced the opposing side to drop their most unreasonable demands, and successfully closed the case without exposing me to the unpredictable variance and extreme costs of a formal trial. Among his most impressive strengths as an attorney: Asset Protection: He secured highly favorable terms that allowed me to retain critical marital property and preserve favorable financial structures that will save me significant money long-term. Risk Mitigation: He successfully deflected massive opposing claims—including unwarranted debt allocations and maintenance demands—negotiating a highly favorable, fixed settlement that completely severed my future financial liabilities. Airtight Execution: In the courtroom, Kourosh is the attorney who "holds the pen." He drafted the final court orders and settlement frameworks with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that my professional income and personal assets were completely insulated from future claims. Kourosh is highly respected by the judges and knows exactly how to navigate the Cook County legal system. He tells you the objective truth about your legal exposure, outlines a clear mathematical path to victory, and executes it flawlessly.

This is the second time I've trusted Kourosh to represent me in a domestic relations case. Unfortunately, it involves the same individual, but having Kourosh in my corner gave me complete peace of mind from start to finish. I genuinely didn't lose a moment of sleep over this case because I knew I had one of the best attorneys advocating for me. Kourosh is knowledgeable, strategic, confident, and truly fights for his clients. He was always prepared, kept me informed throughout the process, and made me feel supported every step of the way. If you're looking for an attorney who will protect your interests and represent you with professionalism and determination, I cannot recommend Kourosh enough. I am incredibly grateful for everything he has done for me, and if I ever need legal representation again, he will be my first call.

I can’t recommend Arami Law enough! I reached out on June 18 needing a prenuptial agreement completed before my June 30 wedding, and I wasn’t sure if it would even be possible on such a tight timeline. Kourosh immediately outlined everything that was needed, kept the process organized and straightforward, and managed to turn everything around in record time. He was responsive, knowledgeable, and made what could have been a stressful process feel incredibly smooth. If you’re looking for an attorney who is efficient, professional, and truly delivers when time is of the essence, I highly recommend Arami Law—especially Kourosh. Thank you for helping make our wedding happen without the added stress!

In an environment where mudslinging is common place Kourosh takes the higher road and is able to get results doing the right thing. He is incredibly knowledgeable and thinks about clients first and how to get them the best outcomes in the most efficient way. While others seem to try and create more outrage to stir emotions to prolong litigation to generate more fees for theirselves Kourosh works around the clock to try and get his clients the swiftest most favorable outcome and minimize their litigation cost. In this field he is a rare find, he does what he says he is going to do and he does things in the right way.
