Law firm announces name, leadership changes

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS - Waltz, Palmer & Dawson LLC, an Arlington Heights-based law firm, said it will now be known as Navigant Law Group LLC. As part of the change, Nichole Waltz, one of the founding partners who launched the firm in 2008, will transition to a private practice, the firm said.

"This has been a time of tremendous transition and growth for our firm," said partner Susan Dawson. Dawson leads the firm's business law practice group. "We are grateful to Nichole for the 12 years of partnership and wish her well as she moves on to her new venture."

Dawson and partner, Millie Palmer, selected Navigant Law Group as the new name after several rounds of discussion and review. "It has always been our goal to provide legal advice that addresses the specific needs of each client and chart a course toward satisfaction and resolution of issues, whether it is for their business or personal needs," said Palmer, who oversees the Estate Planning group. "We feel that with our new structure, name and location, we are well-prepared to help clients as they seek stability in 2021 after a very difficult 2020."

Navigant Law Group, a Women's Business Enterprise Certified firm, moved to its new location at 3030 Salt Creek Lane in Arlington Heights several months ago.
