About Randall
With a unique background in construction management and finance, Mr. Chioini’s primary practice focuses on representing construction companies, businesses, and families in a wide array of matters ranging from contract review to arbitration and litigation to complex divorce matters. During the serious downturn of the economy in Michigan in 2008, Mr. Chioini was successful in assisting his clients in shoring up and defending their accounts receivables through the implementation of liens and related litigation. In 2012, Mr. Chioini successfully foreclosed one of the largest commercial properties in Michigan and a staple Detroit landmark property, The First National Building, on behalf of his contractor-client. His client received a full recovery and attorney fees after almost 4 years of litigation. Mr. Chioini has focused on the principal that by helping his clients weather tough times, he will retain loyal life-long clients down the road. To date, he represents a number of small and large businesses and has further diversified his practice and developed considerable expertise in litigating complex domestic matters, especially divorce matters that involve businesses and complex property issues or other holdings.Mr. Chioini is a regular speaker, contributor, and moderator at a variety of legal seminars and meetings on an annual basis, and is a residing presenter for the Institute of Continuing Legal Education (ICLE) on a variety of specialized topics ranging from real property transfers to drafting complex Judgments of Divorce. These treatises have been published and are widely utilized by practitioners seeking guidance in certain technical aspects of law. Mr. Chioini also sits on the advisory board for the Institute which selects topical legal issues that require analysis and review by the Michigan legal community.Mr. Chioini believes that his finance background allows him to create concise legal blueprints for his clients, before, during, and after the divorce process. He specifically prides himself on his ability to think “outside-of-the-box” to provide creative solutions when he is resolving complex property allocations in divorce matters. Mr. Chioini states that “during litigation there is frequently situations when parties will be at a complete impasse regarding settlement options, however, more often than not a solution does in fact exist….That solution might even offer mutual benefits to both parties, however, that solution may require parties and their attorneys to be able to look past the established methods of settlement in divorce matters in exchange for more creative options.” Mr. Chioini cites that this line of thinking sometimes requires considerable efforts by him to demonstrate to parties (and their attorneys) that there are other, more creative (and possibly more beneficial settlement options) that exist. There is an unfortunate conundrum that plays out routinely in the practice of law in that many attorneys, quite like robots, believe that all legal matters must follow a template or set of rules. Mr. Chioini passionately disagrees with that scenario and remains a firm believer that creativity generates solutions in all legal matters, but unless parties are willing to entertain these options, they may be leaving money on the table via tax scenarios or other considerations. Mr. Chioini proactively engages (and serves as a presenter/moderator) at various continued education seminars related to law (and outside of the law) so that he is always prepared and well-versed in any matters that may affect his clients.
