About this firm

Collins Law Group, P.C. is a Chicago area trial firm focused on catastrophic personal injury, wrongful death, and environmental contamination litigation. Our attorneys have recovered more than $1.5 billion for our clients, including some of the largest verdicts and settlements in Illinois history.

A National Leader in Environmental Toxic Tort Litigation

Very few firms in the country represent plaintiffs in toxic tort cases. We are one of them, and our results show it. Our attorneys secured a $363 million jury verdict in Kamuda v. Sterigenics, one of the largest single-plaintiff verdicts in United States history, and a $408 million settlement in the Willowbrook ethylene oxide litigation. The firm holds Tier 1 National recognition in environmental litigation.

Over the past two decades, we have forced polluters to clean up toxic contamination, provide safe drinking water to more than 16,000 people, filter dangerous chemical vapors from inside homes, excavate contaminated soil from yards and neighborhoods, and compensate victims suffering from cancer and lost home value. We understand the stress that toxic contamination puts on families, and we fight to hold polluters accountable and make communities safe again.

Catastrophic Injury and Wrongful Death

When a serious injury or death is caused by someone else's negligence, the outcome of the case changes a family's future. We handle catastrophic injury cases including commercial trucking and motor vehicle crashes, traumatic brain injury, spinal injury, medical malpractice, birth injury, nursing home neglect, defective products, and wrongful death. Our verdicts and settlements have been recognized by local, state, and national media and have set records for their amounts.

Our trial lawyers are based in the Chicago area and litigate cases in Cook, DuPage, Will, and counties throughout Illinois and across the country. The firm also represents businesses in select commercial litigation matters.

Our attorneys are regularly recognized by Super Lawyers, Leading Lawyers, The National Trial Lawyers, U.S. News and World Report, Avvo, and Martindale-Hubbell. Our pledge to every client is the same: we will work and fight as hard as we can to get the full measure of justice you deserve.

Courage. Integrity. Compassion. When you need a trial lawyer to fight for you, call Collins Law Group, P.C.
