I became a lawyer to help people. People who have suffered life-changing injuries. People who are accused of crimes. In both situations you are going against a mighty opponent (rich/greedy insurance companies or the government).
I pride myself in attentive and personal representation. Be assured I will aggressively protect your rights and fight for a just outcome. Most cases are resolved either through a settlement or plea agreement and sometimes that is the right choice, but sometimes it's not. That being said it is imperative you retain a lawyer who is willing and able to take your case to trial.

Amazin
I had matthew amarin back in 2013 he is a amazin guy he fought a case for more over 2 years. The outcome yes he is great we went to trial on a auuw which us a gun case that they are hard on in the city of chicago...he won the case in trial verdic not guilty..yes highly recommended he works hard.....t...
"Matt is the real deal. He is intelligent, sensitive and devoted to his clients and his craft. If you find yourself in need of a criminal defense attorney or personal injury attorney in the Chicago area, you should give this man a call. I would."
"Matthew is an amazing attorney. He is very kind, understanding, and skilled. He cares about his clients and works relentlessly to protect his client's rights and make them whole. I highly recommend that Chicago residents first consult him before thinking about going to another attorney."
"I highly endorse Mr. Amarin. Very knowledgeable and caring attorney who produces great results in representing clients! I want all people with legal problems to contact him first."
"I have come to know Matthew in two different realms: federal litigator and co-chairmen. Matthew works seven days a week as a federal criminal defense attorney, working on cases ranging from organized crime to cyber crime. He then takes his knowledge and experience and shares with the Chicago legal community as a Chairman for the Chicago Bar Association's Criminal Law Division. Matthew is well versed in federal court procedure, which is the Ivy League of the legal world, yet he still finds time to teach others about the law and their rights. He's a stand-up attorney and I highly recommend him to other attorneys who have federal litigation questions and non-attorneys seeking a true advocate for themselves."
"I have had the distinct pleasure of knowing Matthew for quite some time. It is clear to me that he has chose the right profession in life based on his knowledge of numerous aspects of law and his no quit attitude to achieve success for his clients."
"Mr. Amarin is not only knowledgeable and highly skilled, he is very caring and gives each client individualized attention. I highly recommend Mr. Amarin, without any hesitation or reservation, to anyone looking for a lawyer who knows the law and truly cares about protecting the rights of his clients and getting them the most favorable result possible."
"I have had the distinct pleasure to work both with and against Mathew Amarin, Esq. In all of my experiences with Mr. Amarin, he handled himself with the utmost honesty, integrity, and respect for the client and law. He is diligent in all aspects of his representation of clients and spends the requisite time and effort to fully familiarize himself with the issues at hand. He is always prepared and extremely knowledgeable in his field. He has always been and continues to be a formidable adversary; one that I have come to admire and respect."
"Matthew is a talented and experienced attorney. He works hard, always putting in 110% to help his clients. Mathew has nothing less than a professional demeanor and I would recommend him without hesitation."
"Matt is an up and coming attorney in Chicago, and is very focused on criminal defense in state and federal courts. He is dedicated to his clients and a zealous advocate on their behalf."
"Matt is very well versed in criminal law and a zealous advocate for his clients. I endorse this lawyer."
