About Charles
Biography
I have been a Trial Attorney in Chicago since 1986. I have represented injured individuals in personal injury cases for the entirety of my career. I handle cases involving Medical Malpractice, Nursing Home injuries, Auto Accidents, Products Liability and Workers Compensation. The firm as a whole, and myself individually, pride ourselves on working cases toward settlement if possible, and the ability to go to Trial on the case if a fair settlement offer isn't made. We are also happy to pay referral fees to attorneys who send injury cases our way.
I've been representing injured individuals from case intake through Trial for nearly 4 decades. If you hire our firm, the service you'll receive will be unique in its consistency and reassuring in its thoroughness. Call today if there is anything we can help you with.

Excellent, Honest Service
I was extremely satisfied with this attorneys services. When he contacted me, he stuck to the most relevant details and didn't overburden me with too much information, but remained clear and concise about my options. I felt he was honest and concerned over my circumstances and I greatly appreciated...
Charles V. Falkenberg III's Lawyer Endorsements
"For clients and referring lawyers alike, KFF is a great resource. For over 30 years, I have referred medical malpractice and other complex litigation to Charlie Falkenberg and KFF. They have the experience,skill,determination and integrity to get fantastic results in these most difficult cases and I recommend them very highly."
"Our office has been referring cases to Charlie, J.B. and Richard for the past 35 years. We are extremely happy with the attention that all cases get from initial intake all the way through resolution and that happiness extends to the results that they get on a consistent basis. That includes all cases, whether they are settled for $10,000 or upwards of $10,000,000, and there have been examples at both ends of the spectrum and everywhere in between. The communication with the clients has proven great and just as importantly, the attorneys at Karlin, Fleisher & Falkenberg keep us advised as the case progresses so that we can intelligently comment on the status of the case should a client call us for any reason. Our firm relies on the attorneys of Karlin, Fleisher & Falkenberg and we hope to be able to continue that reliance for another 30 years."
"I endorse Charlie's work. Charlie has demonstrated on numerous occasions all of the qualities essential to being an effective trial lawyer. He is dedicated, knowledgeable, hard working, and passionate about representing his clients. He has my utmost trust and confidence. I would not hesitate to recommend his professional services."
