Fred J. Beer Law Offices

I hired Attorney Beer for two work injury cases. I found his service to be excellent. He explained difficult legal jargon and concepts and made it make sense to me. He is a compassionate and caring attorney. I highly recommend him to anyone for any work injury, personal injury, or other legal mat...ter.

Auto Accident Injury Case

Mr. Beer represented me in my auto injury case. He advised and explained the entire process of deciding with the insurance company. He handled my claim and negotiated the maximum settlement after paying off all the medical bills. He also negotiated the medical bills and obtained discounts on the bala...nces due which increased my settlement. He promptly returned all phone calls and kept me advised during the entire process. I highly RECOMMEND Fred to anyone in need of an Attorney for an auto accident injury case. Thank you Fred.

Fran's Review of Fred Beer

If you are looking for an attorney with integrity and an individual that will communicate a real sense of honesty, hire Fred Beer. What was the most helpful was not only his ability to explain the law, in my case workman's comp; but his compassion for his client.

Posted by Diane | October 28, 2013 | Workers Compensation

Mr. Fred Beer, attorney

Mr. Beer handled a workman's comp. case that clearly followed Illinois guidelines for such a case. My employer, however, termed it an "unfortunate accident" and prolonged the settlement of the case for five years and seven months. Finally, two and a half years into the case, my employer agreed it w...as, indeed, workman's comp. However, it took another three years before we could get contracts that reflected agreed upon terms of settlement, and those contracts were only achieved because Mr. Beer assumed strong leadership in directing the final resolution of this matter. During this lenghty process, Mr. Beer worked tirelessly and persistently with all parties in an effort to reach a timely conclusion. In all my contacts with him, he was professional and showed consideration for my case. I always felt I was getting good legal advice and that he would work in my best interests; additionally, phone messages/e-mail inquires were returned promptly. Mr. Beer's experience in this area also helped me keep the process in perspective, especially in terms of the long timeline. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Beer to anyone needing his specialized expertise.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
