          About Us

          We are committed to helping businesses and consumers foster a marketplace of trust. From our home base in Chicago, we work to serve you in an area that spans from Northwest Illinois across the State to Kankakee and all the areas in between. We are on the road visiting communities, collaborating with local businesses, educating consumers and promoting relationships built on trust. We are supporting our military, assisting our seniors, empowering our youth and holding businesses to a higher standard so that you don’t have to. Your continued support means more public outreach, more investigations into substandard business behaviors, more education on scam awareness, and more support for businesses that remain devoted to honesty and integrity. Together, we can make a powerful impact on the places we call home.
