Joseph Shun Ravago — One Lawyer Who Shows that You Needn't Work on Wall Street to Find Fulfillment

July 13, 2012 - PRLog -- The FBI. Law firms. Private corporations. Doesn't every graduate long for options when looking to begin an illustrious career? Chicago attorney-at-law and CPA Joseph Shun Ravago had all these opportunities when he finished law school. However, he passed up a potential career on Wall Street to better his community, working instead with the Filipino and Hispanic communities in Chicago.

Why would someone with both a legal and business background choose a seemingly low-key career? Ravago felt that the greatest satisfaction would come not from an highly esteemed career, but from using his talents and blessings to their best possible end: serving clients who would be otherwise unable to receive high quality legal services. Ravago practices law in the areas of Corporate, Taxation, Bankruptcy, Immigration and Real Estate.

Ironman Competitor

It is not just in the legal field that Ravago puts his best foot forward. After much training and practice, the lawyer competed in and finished the Ironman competition in Louisville, Kentucky in 2009. For those who are not familiar with it, the competition consists of three legs: a 2.4 mile swim, 112 miles of biking, and a marathon-length run of 26.2 miles.

As Ravago says in an interview on his website, legal problems can very often be intimidating to clients, but after talking to him, they often regain a feeling of peace. He deals with issues of bankruptcy, immigration, taxation, real estate, and corporate law. As if that wasn't enough, Ravago also started Guidingpoint Consulting, Inc. which provides solutions and services to businesses, and has worked in advising health care companies on compliance with Federal and State Laws.
