Recognized as a leader in the field, Craig frequently speaks at professional conferences on environmental law and corporate compliance.
Craig joins Dorsey from Holland & Hart. Craig received his J.D. from Columbia University and his M.A. and B.A. from Brigham Young University.

Fried Frank Files Amicus Brief on Behalf of Vet Voice Foundation
Press releases
November 13, 2026
On November 6, Fried Frank filed an amicus brief on behalf of Vet Voice Foundation in the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, supporting Minority Veterans of America's petition for review of a Department of Veterans Affairs rule restricting abortion care and counseling.
The challenged rule, issued in December 2025, bans abortion counseling and nearly all abortioncare through the VA. The rule reverses a policy that permitted veterans and eligible dependents to obtain counseling as well as care when a pregnancy endangered the patient's life or health or resulted from rape or incest.
The brief documents the heightened physical and mental health risks, including suicide risk, that pregnant veterans face. It further argues that the challenged rule forces these veterans to seek abortion counseling and care outside the VA's integrated, veteran-focused care system, disrupting and undermining quality of care and imposing substantial financial and geographic barriers to accessing abortion services.
The full brief is available here (https://www.friedfrank.com/uploads/documents/a937c889ecdbb70bd6cee473760a3913.pdf).
The Fried Frank team included partner Katherine St. Romain; associates Elizabeth Kalanchoe, Maria Ciacci and Jonathan Picado; law clerks Max Pardoe and Brian Singer; and paralegal Filipina Balahadia.

New Illinois Landlord Fee Transparency Requirements Take Effect in 2027
November 13, 2026
Authors
Chad M. Poznansky, Thomas Ball
Additional Contributor: Elina Callas
On January 1, 2027, Public Act 104-0479, amending the Illinois Landlord and Tenant Act (765 ILCS 705/35) (the "Transparency Act"), goes into effect. The Transparency Act serves to eliminate undisclosed so-called "junk" fees by requiring landlords to clearly disclose the full cost of a rental property before prospective tenants sign a lease.The Transparency Act will apply to all residential leases and renewals entered into after Jan. 1, 2027, excluding owner-occupied rental units in buildings with six units or fewer.
The Transparency Act requires landlords to list all non-optional fees, whether one-time or recurring, explicitly on the first page of the lease; if a fee is not so listed, the tenant is not liable to pay it. Mandatory fees must also be clearly disclosed in any listing of the property (or an accompanying weblink), and the listing or lease must state whether utilities are included in the rent. These requirements are in addition to those of the 2025 Safer Homes Act, which mandated additional requirements for the first page of the lease.
The Transparency Act also caps rental application fees, including background check fees, at $50.00, and permits a background check fee to exceed that amount only when (i) a third-party background check costs more than $50.00, (ii) the landlord pays that cost upfront, and (iii) the landlord bills the applicant (with the provider's receipts) within 14 days. Consequently, landlords bear the upfront cost and collection risk for screening costs above the cap. The fee is waived if landlords fail to bill tenants within 14 days after completion of the background check. Further, a tenant's failure to pay the background check fee may never serve as the basis for an eviction during the first year of the lease. The Transparency Act also bans a range of other charges, including fees for modifying or renewing a lease; for an eviction notice or filing before the court grants an eviction order; for after-hours and routine maintenance; for contacting the owner or manager; for travel to perform maintenance; for a maintenance hotline; for pest abatement not caused by the tenant; and for in-person move-in/move-out walkthroughs.
It is important to note that a landlord may not rename or recharacterize fees to circumvent these prohibitions. Although the statute does not define what constitutes "renaming," landlords should be careful about any charges attached to a lease, particularly if they correspond to a fee charged in a prior year. Failure to comply with the Transparency Act may expose a landlord to civil actions, in which tenants may recover attorneys' fees and court costs that can quickly become expensive under Illinois law. Further, the Transparency Act specifically allows fees charged in violation of the statute to be nullified.
Illinois landlords should prioritize reviewing their lease forms, listings, advertising, and fee structures to ensure compliance before their first 2027 lease renewal or new tenancy, and should consult an attorney with any questions to avoid costly penalties. Our office stands ready to answer any questions about interpreting the Transparency Act and to provide guidance on lease modifications.
