Free Jimmy Project Worked!!

Thanks Eric. I thought I was done after another local attorney told me that the 16 years the State was offering me was a "GIFT." But I was not guilty. YOU believed in me... YOU went to bat for me... YOU are the best jury trial lawyer I know. I was found not guilty on all counts. Thanks again!! ...Jimmy

Best Lawyer in LaSalle, Peru, Ottawa, Streator, Marseilles area

I loved the outcome of my case. They were kind, quick, responsive and knowledgeable about my woerk's compensation case. I received way more than expected. After that, I had them handle my personal injury matter. Again, they were right one. No one is better at injury law than the Miskell Law Center.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
