The firm is one of the largest female-owned litigation and coverage firms in Chicago.

We are prepared to support our clients throughout the life of a case, having taken hundreds of cases successfully to verdict. From pre-suit to trial to appeals, we leverage decades of experience to counsel our clients on each and every aspect of a case.

Diversity

We are committed to promoting diversity within our firm. We believe in hiring a diverse workforce, because it is, quite simply, the right thing to do. We also know our firm is at its strongest when our team brings a variety of perspectives to every legal problem we face.

The firm holds several core beliefs:

We believe our workforce should represent a cross-section of our society.

We believe our workforce should represent a cross-section of your insureds.

We believe our workforce should represent a cross-section of the jurors deciding our cases.

Because of that, we actively seek to recruit, hire, and retain attorneys and staff with a variety of talents, backgrounds, experiences, and personal characteristics, including but not limited to, race, gender, ethnicity, religion, socio-economic background, sexual orientation, and geographic origin.
