About this firm

Since its beginning over 80 years ago, WilliamsMcCarthy has grown to become one of the largest full service firms in Illinois outside of Chicago. We are a Regional firm that represents a broad cross section of business, industrial, governmental, health care, financial, insurance and individual interests. Our business clients, many of whom operate on a regional, national and international level, include such industries as agriculture, automotive, banking and financial, computers and technology, construction, engineering, health care, hotels and hospitality, insurance, machine tool, manufacturing, media, petroleum marketing, real estate development, retail, personal service, telecommunications and transportation.

While a substantial portion of our client base is made up of institutional and corporate clients, the firm represents a significant number of small businesses and individuals. Our work for individual clients includes such matters as probate, complex estate planning and tax services, family law, real estate transactions, incorporation, litigation and general legal counseling.

A full service law firm, WilliamsMcCarthy's core departments are designated Business Law, Litigation, Employment Law (management), Real Estate, Trusts & Estates, Creditor's Rights and Health Care. Within the Business Law group several of our members concentrate in mergers and acquisitions. The firm maintains a large litigation practice with an emphasis on complex commercial litigation, unfair competition, employers' liability, insurance defense, and workers compensation (management). Members of the litigation group practice in the state courts of Illinois and Wisconsin, as well as all federal courts and routinely act as co-counsel with national law firms in complex disputes, including commercial litigation. From its core groups, WilliamsMcCarthy lawyers have developed expertise in a variety of areas of concentration which allows the Firm to meet the increasingly sophisticated needs of its clients.

State of the art technology and support systems allow us to meet our clients' needs on a timely cost-efficient fashion. We recruit highly capable personnel and require continuing professional education and development. We encourage our members to become active in the community and are pleased that our lawyers routinely serve in leadership positions of organizations that serve our region.

In addition to our principal office in Rockford, we also maintain a regional office in Oregon, Illinois to serve several adjacent counties southwest of Rockford.
