Representation For Chicago Independent Manufacturer Sales Representatives
Illinois independent manufacturer sales representatives work for out-of-state or foreign manufacturers by developing, marketing and selling the manufacturer’s products in hard-to-reach markets. Independent representatives usually work on a commission basis. At Norman J. Lerum, P.C., we work to protect the rights of independent sales representatives.
Legal Pioneers For Protecting Commissions
Attorney Norman J. Lerum is a pioneer in establishing favorable case law for Illinois sales representatives against out-of-state and foreign manufacturers that attempt to avoid their obligation to pay earned commissions under the parties’ contract and under the Illinois Sales Representative Act, 820 ILCS 120/1 et seq. See Midwest Enterprises v. Generac Corp., No. 91 C 2229, 1992 WL 169059 (N.D. Ill. August 27, 1991); JAMS Arbitration, Hon. Nan Nolan (Ret.) See also Order, May 8, 2015, In the Matter of Micro Sales, Inc. v. Advantech Corporation, which resulted in a $291,000 arbitration award, U.S. Dist. Court, N.D. Ill 1:14-cv-00997. Read More
