Reversal Obtained in Appellate Court on Nursing Home Arbitration Agreement

Pretzel & Stouffer partners Robert Chemers  and Scott Howie recently obtained a judgment from the Appellate Court of Illinois, First District, reversing the ruling of the trial court, on our client nursing home’s motion to compel arbitration against a plaintiff resident.

The trial court denied the motion to compel arbitration, and the Appellate Court reversed and remanded the case for further proceedings under the Uniform Arbitration Act. We were engaged by the nursing home to handle its appeal.
