DiMonte & Lizak, LLC’s litigation team of Riccardo DiMonte, David Arena, Margherita Albarello and Ryan Van Osdol recently obtained a favorable settlement for their client and against the Village of Mount Prospect. In the lawsuit, various Village employees and the Village of Mount Prospect were alleged to have violated the civil RICO statute and plaintiff’s civil rights in an effort to force plaintiff to sell his property for less than fair market value.
