Legal help in Rock Island County

Rock Island County is the Illinois half of the Quad Cities: Rock Island, Moline, East Moline, Milan and Silvis. Thousands of residents work at the Rock Island Arsenal and other federal facilities, which makes federal-sector employment law especially relevant here. Discrimination, retaliation and EEO process questions for federal workers are a core part of what we do.

Illinois law differs from Iowa law in important ways, including deadlines, fault rules and employment statutes. Stephen Fieweger is licensed in Illinois, has argued before the Illinois Supreme Court, and practiced for more than 25 years at his father's Quad Cities firm. Rock Island County cases are typically heard in Rock Island, and our Davenport office is just across the river. For most clients, it is a shorter drive than crossing their own county.
