I am an experienced personal injury and workers' compensation trial attorney. I specialize in multiple areas of this field including motor vehicle accidents, construction negligence, slip and falls, work accidents, medical malpractice, product liability, amongst others. I have always dedicated myself to my clients' cases and provide the same dedication and intensity regardless of the case size.
I learned the value of hard work through the various jobs I have held during my life. I am a former member of Laborers' Local #4 and worked as a union laborer throughout college. Upon graduating from law school I began working as an Assistant Counsel to the Speaker of the House of Illinois. During my time there I assisted in the impeachment and removal from office of then Governor Rod Blagojevich which was an invaluable experience.
Since 2009 I found my true calling and have worked as a trial attorney only representing injured plaintiffs and petitioners. I have resolved hundreds of cases through trial, settlement, mediation, and arbitration. I pride myself on always being available to meet my clients' needs and providing them with excellent representation.

Workers Comp Case

I'd highly recommend Mark Connolly.
