Michael D. Mannis, Esq.

Founder

I’ve been helping personal injury victims for over 37 years. And I love helping people! Most of the fights are tough, some require finesse, some require a sledgehammer, but all clients and their claims benefit from my thirty five years doing what I do, and desire to help people, personally.


After earning my JD from Tulane University, I moved to Chicago, where I’ve been practicing law since 1985. I’m licensed to practice in all levels of State Court, Federal Court, and have represented clients in numerous arbitration and mediation hearings, including those through the American Arbitration Association. My background is built on real-world litigation experience, from countless jury trials to the many cases I’ve successfully resolved.


One of the highlights of my career was arguing a landmark case before the Illinois Supreme Court—Wilson v. CTA 159 Ill. App. 3d 1043—which led to important changes in state law. It’s experiences like this, along with the thousands of cases I’ve handled and the personal attention I give to every client, that fuel my dedication to this work.


If you’re facing a personal injury claim and need someone in your corner, I’m here to help. Reach out to me, Michael D. Mannis, and let’s talk about how I can support you.
