Leandro “Lee” A. Alhambra is a Chicago-based personal injury and workers’ compensation attorney at Woodruff Johnson & Evans. After spending two years with a large insurance company administering UAW disability benefits, Mr. Alhambra saw firsthand how injured workers were subjected to injustice. He decided to pursue his Juris Doctorate degree from IIT-Chicago Kent College of Law. After graduating, he joined Woodruff Johnson & Evans and, since that time, has recovered millions of dollars on behalf of his clients.
