Fahner Lightfoot was founded to provide legal and related services to all-sized businesses and individuals participating within the global marketplace. Based in the United States, the firm maintains a commitment to foster the development of a “global mind-set” among the business and investment communities.

Fahner Lightfoot is a boutique law firm headquartered in Chicago and Los Angeles, focused primarily in the following practice areas: Commercial Litigation & Business Disputes, Corporate and Business Transactions, Renewable Energy and Technology Law and Development, International Trade Law, Government & Administrative Affairs, and Immigration and Regulatory Compliance. Our staff has extensive experience working in corporate, legal, developmental and governmental capacities.

At Fahner Lightfoot, our primary mission is to understand client needs, clarify their vision, and thereafter help create and implement a strategy to accomplish our clients’ goals. As the global marketplace has become integrated with local U.S. business and development, we focus on solutions designed for business and investment success in U.S. and international markets, while achieving local growth and compliance. Moving people, goods, funds and ideas across the U.S. as well as international borders is a challenging endeavor. That is why we are focused on working with our clients to develop creative and specific solutions. 

Our robust litigation practice supports client needs when disputes arise and has the depth and experience to handle matters ranging from garden variety breach of contract claims to complex business and commercial disputes, as well as investigations and corporate compliance. Our practitioners, many of whom have served in international law firms and at high levels of government, are more than just litigators – they are counselors who weigh practical business concerns and prioritize those considerations as part of an overall legal strategy.
