Hello! I'm Henry, your legal expert here to assist you with filing your lawsuit in Chicago. It's great to hear you have your documentation ready; let's get you the help you need! What state do you work in? How much does the employer owe you?
My residence is in Florida, and right now I am located in New York. The company that owes me is located in Illinois. I was doing the activity from home. I was a private contractor, and the amount I am seeking is $31,459.50, plus any extra expenses such as court fees, lawyer fees, and transportation.

So you’d likely have to file in Illinois since that’s where the employer is located. Are you planning to hire an attorney to represent you with the lawsuit, or will you be filing pro se?
I would love to have an attorney help.

If I want to go pro se, is there a way I can get help doing that?

We can answer general questions, otherwise you’d need to hire an attorney for limited scope representation if you just want help and don’t want to retain the attorney full-time.
Okay, thank you very much. I’ll find one from the link you sent.

You’re welcome. I hope your situation works out to your satisfaction and is resolved quickly. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with. Have a wonderful day.
