The son of a law librarian and a real estate agent, Barry Doyle grew up in Evanston, Illinois. He is a 1987 graduate of Evanston Township High School. From there, he went to the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science in 1991. He returned to the Chicago area to attend law school at Loyola University of Chicago.

While attending law school, he clerked at some of the most prestigious plaintiff's personal injury law firms in Chicago. Barry Doyle also did volunteer externships with the Cook County State's Attorney's office and former Magistrate Judge Edward A. Bobrick for the federal court in the Northern District of Illinois.

Barry Doyle was a Dean's List student every semester and received academic awards for his performance in criminal law, insurance law, federal civil rights legislation and First Amendment rights. He also received a Leadership and service Award before receiving his degree with honors in 1994. He finished in the top 10% of his law school class.

Entering the Legal World

After graduating, Mr. Doyle took and passed the Illinois bar examination and is currently licensed to practice law in state courts in Illinois and in the federal court for the Northern District of Illinois.

Drawing upon his law school experiences and his desire to help injured people and their families in time of need, Barry Doyle chose to enter the field of plaintiff's personal injury work. He has not and will not represent insurance companies.

Mr. Doyle opened his own law office in June 2004 after spending 10 years as an associate in a number of highly successful plaintiff's personal injury law firms. His work as a Schaumburg lawyer has allowed him to represent injured people and their families in personal injury and wrongful death cases.
