Practices
Working with our team of highly skilled and experienced paralegals, the attorneys at Williams & Kite LLC bring a wealth of knowledge and legal acumen to the areas of business law, estate planning and administration, and real estate law. The Williams & Kite creative and innovative approach, combined with personalized service, provides clients with many options when planning to meet their business or personal needs.
Michael Kite
Focuses his practice on estate planning, working with family businesses, and commercial and residential real estate transactions. Michael believes that the attorney-client relationship functions best when client goals and concerns are heard, respected, and met while giving the clients a complete understanding of the process and outcome.
Promoting the importance of estate planning for individuals and families of varying financial means is foundational to Michael’s practice. He encourages people to engage in the difficult conversations now rather than delaying until an event happens which might increase the chance of conflict amongst family members
Each business that Michael works with must have its own plan for the future. It must develop the agreements to control ongoing management and facilitate a framework for succession in the event of death, disability, or departure from service of principals. Another critical part of every business is the need for the regular drafting and review of business contracts.
The sale and purchase of residential and commercial real estate are part of Michael’s practice. In addition to negotiating and conducting the purchase and sale of real estate, Michael also drafts, reviews, and negotiates commercial leases for landlords and tenants with the objective of avoiding potential pitfalls and place his clients in the best possible position.
Michael is defined by his balance of his four passions: family, friends, business and hockey. Michael graduated from The John Marshall Law School in 2009, and is a member of the Illinois State Bar Association and DuPage County Bar Association.
