The lawyer who used to represent the Village of Dolton and Mayor Tiffany Henyard filed a lawsuit against the attorney who provided legal counsel to the Board of Trustees.
Del Galdo Law Group served as special counsel and prosecutor for the Village of Dolton from May 2021 until April 2024. According to a lawsuit filed in the Cook County Circuit Court on June 11, Burt Odelson, a partner at Odelson, Murphy, Frazier, and McGrath Ltd., defamed Del Galdo Law Group on several occasions. The lawsuit claimed Odelson attempted to represent the village when the mayor was elected in 2021, but Henyard appointed Del Galdo instead.
Del Galdo Law said the firm billed the village consistent with their contract. Del Galdo Law withdrew from representing Henyard and the Village in April after the firm had not been paid. The firm sent a letter to Henyard and the trustees saying the village was facing millions of dollars in judgments from pending several cases and could be on the hook for millions more from nearly two dozen current lawsuits.
