    COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE – 2021 MARKET UPDATE
    Commercial Real Estate
    Stephen L. Golan, Margaret A. Christie, Anthony R. Taglia, Darrin S. Baim, Brianna L. Golan

    2020 was a difficult year. The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the economy across all industries, especially real estate. As the lockdown extended well beyond initial expectations, commercial lending became virtually impossible to obtain given the instability of the market and lack of forecast ability. As a result, we saw a number of commercial real estate deals delayed indefinitely and eventually terminated. On the leasing side, we had tenants defaulting on their leases and asserting force majeure as a means of temporary rent relief. But, as 2020 dragged on and we learned to navigate the unprecedented time, we finally started to see a light at the end of the tunnel as we moved into 2021.

    BUSINESSES BEWARE!: INCREASED PENALTIES UNDER THE IWPCA
    Employment Law
    David J. Ben-Dov, Ashley L. Orler

    The Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act (the “Act”) requires employers to pay every employee all wages earned. Upon separation from employment, the employer is required to pay the final compensation of the employee in full, if possible, but no later than the next regularly scheduled payday. Should an employer fail to make such payment, the Act imposes penalties and individual corporate officers may be held personally liable for such non-payment of wages.
