Thomas W Tuohy
Affordable, accessible and personable service
I am an attorney at Tuohy Law Offices with over 40 years of experience. I concentrate in providing Living Trust estate plans and small business representation for working-class families.
My passion for serving the community stems from my roots in the West Side of Chicago, where I grew up as the grandson of a police chief and son of a detective. Through Dreams for Kids, the nonprofit organization I founded in 1989, I have represented thousands of police officers and other public servants and mentored and trained thousands of youth as social entrepreneurs.
As an adjunct professor at DePaul University, I am dedicated to teaching entrepreneurship and social innovation. My mission is to educate and challenge expectations and empower people to live the American Dream and pass it on to future generations. With the right guidance and determination, anyone can achieve their goals and make a difference in the world.
