Law Office of Emad Mahou

About Us

The Law Office of Emad Mahou is an Oak Park practice handling estate planning, business formation, and trademark and copyright registration. Emad S. Mahou works directly with every client, from the first conversation through signed and funded documents. No intake team, no handoff, no associate you have never met returning your call.

Estate planning starts with the Family Future Planning Session, a working meeting applied toward whatever plan you decide to build. That meeting exists because Illinois families face a problem most planning software ignores: the Illinois estate tax exemption is $4 million, and unlike the federal exemption, it does not transfer to a surviving spouse. A plan drafted without that in mind can cost an Oak Park family real money.

On the business side, the firm forms Illinois limited liability companies and corporations, drafts operating agreements that match how the owners actually run the company, and files federal trademark and copyright applications for founders, artists, and creators.

Emad also teaches First Amendment law as a visiting professor at DePaul University.
