About Mr. Joseph Spingola

I've advised clients for 50 years. I know how to see both sides of the issues before advising whether to continue litigating or not. I was Chairman of the Zoning Board of Appeals for Chicago for 14 years. To have lasted that long, I was able to judge a pending matter while balancing the interests of the Mayor, the City Departments, the Aldermen, the applicants, and their attorneys. As President of the South Loop Neighbors Association in the 1980's, I take great pride in having managed a Board of pioneers that worked with developers, aldermen, and city agencies to put the South Loop on the map. As a Salesman of Material Service Corporation, I learned every phase of construction from a garage slap to John Hancock Tower. Now, I seek to give something back to the legal profession. The opportunity to be a mediator with the Chicago Bar Association presents just that opportunity.
