		 [May 07, 2019] 
		Woods & Bates P.C. of Lincoln, Illinois, has entered into an agreement 
		to acquire Culbertson & Allen, LLC, located in Delavan, Illinois. 
 After decades of practicing law in Delavan with the firm of Culbertson & 
		Allen, LLC, attorney Mark Allen has decided to transition to retirement. 
		Allen joined the firm in 1977 and has practiced exclusively in the 
		Delavan office since that time.
 
 William "Blinn" Bates, Jr. and Michael T. Fleshman of Woods & Bates P.C. 
		in Lincoln, Illinois, have reached an agreement with Allen, the sole 
		owner of Culbertson & Allen, LLC, to acquire the Delavan firm.
 
 Woods & Bates will continue to provide the same high-quality legal 
		services that businesses and individuals have come to expect from 
		Culbertson & Allen and will continue to operate at the same Delavan 
		office location where John T. Culbertson, Jr., began practicing law in 
		his hometown in 1916.
