Who Knows How to Get Results. . .

Jim Ginzkey limits the number of cases he takes so that he can give personal attention to each, helping them, through an emotionally challenging time in their lives.

To effectively negotiate settlements, he prepares each case in anticipation of trial. He has the investigative resources and necessary access to expert witnesses to help prove liability and damages in personal injury cases. He holds a unique bargaining position with insurance companies and their attorneys, because he was once in their shoes. Because of this, he often obtains reasonable settlement offers. But if settlement is not obtained, he is prepared to go to trial.

Jim knows his way around a courtroom. He has argued before juries throughout Illinois. He has also argued before the Illinois Supreme Court, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, and the United States Supreme Court.

In a statewide survey of his peers, Jim was named both a "Leading Lawyer" and a "Super Lawyer" and recognized to be among the top lawyers in Illinois. The number of "Leading Lawyers" never exceeds 5% of the licensed attorneys in Illinois. The survey was conducted by the Law Bulletin Publishing Company which publishes the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin.

Jim lectures regularly for the Illinois State Bar Association and the Illinois Trial Lawyers Association, and was twice appointed to chair the Illinois State Bar Association's Tort Law Section.

He understands the nuances in personal injury litigation, and how to get results. Personal injury cases involve many critical, long-term decisions. Compensation is needed to pay for past and future medical and rehabilitation expenses. Without compensation for lost income or wages, it is very difficult for an individual or family to stay economically afloat. Jim Ginzkey has the experience, skill, and resources to get the compensation you need and deserve.
