Protecting clients and their families in their times of need is the reason I practice law. Too many top Chicago law firms are hands-off — clients go through an entire case without ever meeting the attorney handling it. When I opened my firm in 2004, I made two commitments that have guided every case I have taken since.
My two commitments to every client
To creatively and assertively represent you
Every case is unique. Your case presents its own set of facts, circumstances, and challenges. Drawing on my knowledge of the law, I pursue my clients’ interests and work to minimize the defense’s effectiveness through aggressive, innovative legal strategy.
Through the pre-trial discovery process, I work to establish facts and elicit admissions that demonstrate the liability of the other party and their insurance company. When a reasonable settlement cannot be reached, I am prepared to take the case to a jury — and I have done so more than 50 times.
To make sure you fully understand your case
This case belongs to you, not to me. You need to understand the strengths and weaknesses of your own case — and the defense’s case. Too many lawyers throw around terms like modified comparative negligence without ever explaining what they mean for your specific situation.
I take the time to make sure you are fully informed about what is happening in your claim at every stage. When the moment comes to decide whether to settle or go to trial, you will be able to make that decision with complete clarity — because it is your decision to make, not mine.
The client always makes the final call
I will always offer my advice and my honest assessment of your options. But in the end, the decision is always yours. Clients cannot make solid, informed decisions without a firm understanding of the legal basis of their case, the defense’s position, and all the facts surrounding their accident. That requires regular, ongoing communication — from me to you, not just when you call.
Why it matters who you choose
I have practiced exclusively in plaintiff’s personal injury law for more than 30 years, representing victims of negligence and their families throughout Illinois. I have not and will not represent insurance companies — unlike some of the top law firms in Chicago that take cases on both sides. My practice is devoted entirely to injured people and the families who depend on them.
As a Chicago injury attorney focused on Northern Illinois, I have dedicated my practice to being accessible, communicative, and relentless on behalf of my clients. My No Recovery, No Fee commitment means your outcome is my focus from the first conversation to the last.
