About David

Practice areas
  1. Personal injury
    50%
    While the vast majority of our cases are won outside of the courtroom, we are trial attorneys with more than 20 years of experience. We will go to court if that is what it takes to get results. Our opponents know our reputation in the courtroom, as do area judges and fellow attorneys, who frequently compliment us on our trial skills after seeing us in action. Not every attorney knows the ins and outs of trial. We do, and that is why we are able to achieve results.

  2. Car accident
    25%
    When it comes to retaining a lawyer after an Illinois car accident, many people hesitate. They think they can handle matters themselves. Auto Accidents are quite a specialty at for the Firm. Victims are entitled to compensation and we get results. The best case scenario in these situations: The victim accepts the insurance company's settlement offer, never knowing it falls far short of what he or she was truly entitled to.

Rockford Personal Injury Lawyers

Dedicated to getting compensation for IL Accident Victums.

 

There is an old lawyer saying that goes: "Cases are not won in the courtroom." What does this mean? It means that cases are won through careful investigation and preparation, not by arguing in front of a judge and jury. At The Monteleone Law Firm, we take this saying to heart.

 

We painstakingly prepare every case, gathering every detail — witness statements and key testimony, elements of proof, jury instructions and more — into a single, well-organized notebook. More often than not, our preparation allows us to win the case without even having to go to trial. Our opponents, typically insurance companies, see the work we have done and know that they have to provide a full and fair settlement to the victim.

 

We specialize in but are not limited to:

  • Personal Injury
  • Auto Accidents
  • Truck Accidents
  • Motorcycle Accidents
  • Drunk Driving Accidents
  • Contruction Accidents
  • Dog Bites
  • Wrongful Death

Excellent Firm. Got the results I was looking for. Quick Turnaround.
I was afraid of a long drawn out process, but David was able to get not only a quick decision but the settlement I was looking for. it was a very difficult time and we were stressed about what was ahead of us. Mr. Monteleone took all the courtroom burden off of us, and got my family a quick settlement and an excellent result. it was a very difficult time, but we were extremely pleased this was not a long process. My family would recommend the Monteleone Law Firm, and especially David for coming though for us during out time of need. Thank you David.
