About
As the co-owner of Cunningham and Smith Law Group, my career began litigating intellectual property disputes and civil rights actions against the City of Chicago.
My practice started with representing individuals in employment litigation, civil rights matters, and business disputes against larger entities, in addition to assisting small business with formation and structuring.
We now assist both small business and middle market businesses with the full gambit of corporate counsel starting from formation and… read more including counsel on all day-to day transactions, contracts drafting/negotiation, mergers and acquisitions, employment matters, real estate purchases, compliance counseling, and then advising company's through their exit strategy.

Client Reviews
"Aasim and his team helped me form my limited liability company, drafted an operating agreement, prepared an NDA to protect the company's proprietary assets, and a convertible note for the investors."
"Aasim and his team have been immensely valuable in providing counsel for this company. We engaged with his firm in 2020, and have since received counsel and services including: contract redlining, lease drafting, HR issues, business ethics, separation agreements, vendor agreements, partnership deals, equity purchase documents; and assistance in pre-litigation resolutions. We have been very pleased that a firm of his size can provide such a wide array of services for a company with more than 100 employees"."
