Although legal services have been declared an essential service during this State of Emergency, we are taking all reasonable and appropriate precautions. Our staff and attorneys are working remotely, but we continue to provide legal services as people need them. We are still meeting with clients and providing legal advice through telephone calls and video conferencing.
We are drafting documents and having them signed using electronic means when appropriate. We are doing remote real estate closings, remote signing of Wills, Trusts and Powers of Attorney. We are even offering remote mediation services for divorce and other family conflicts. Our roots go back to 1961 when Gilbert X. Drendel, Jr. joined the legendary Reid, Ochsenschlager, Murphy & Hupp law firm in Aurora.
Gilbert ("Gib") Drendel and several other attorneys left to form a new firm in 1981. Seven attorneys moved with him from Aurora to Batavia in 1994 and formed Drendel, Tatnall, Hoffman & McCracken. The Drendel & Jansons Law Group continues the same solid tradition, providing the same sterling legal services and advice to communities, businesses, business owners and their families in Kane County and beyond.
