About this office:

Rusin Maciorowski & Friedman, Ltd. was founded in 1984 by Douglas F. Stevenson, Michael E. Rusin and Stephen J. Friedman (as Stevenson, Rusin & Friedman, Ltd.) with the goal of establishing a specialty firm focusing on representing employers and their insurance carriers in all of the varied legal aspects of the workplace injury, including Worker's Compensation, OSHA, personal injury, contribution liability and lien recovery, wrongful discharge and employment discrimination.

Through dedication to aggressive, result-oriented file handling and prompt, thorough client reporting, the firm grew from the original seven lawyers and continued to expand to serve its clients' needs throughout the state of Illinois and northern and northwestern Indiana. With the opening of our Champaign, Illinois office in 1999, and our Carbondale, Illinois office in 2003, the firm reinforced its commitment to efficient representation in our downstate venues.

With Douglas Stevenson's appointment to the Illinois Industrial Commission in 1998, the firm changed its name to reflect its current mission on providing a full service litigation practice to its client base of employers, industry and insurance carriers.

The firm's leadership role in Workers' Compensation and Employer Liability has carried over to its civil department. Initially developed to handle the claims evolving from the workplace accident, the firm has acquired a depth of experience in employment discrimination and wrongful discharge, product liability, and coverage issues. We have the unique ability to coordinate the handling of the Workers' Compensation claim and related civil actions including lien protection, third party practice including extensive remedy defenses and related insurance coverage issues, including the handling of Declaratory Judgement actions.

Our current civil department, managed by Gregory Vacala, has grown and provides seasoned trial attorneys handling cases throughout Illinois and surrounding states. These attorneys have a depth of experience in managing all phases of civil practice including transportation law (automobiles and trucking liability), commercial litigation, and insurance coverage.

The firm has earned a preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell.
