Attorneys at Dykema are experienced in all areas of trial and appellate practice in civil litigation, including medical and drug, professional liability, personal injury, products liability, insurance and negligence, and environmental claims litigation.

Prestigious professional and honorary societies, including the American College of Trial Lawyers, Illinois Society of Trial Lawyers, Association of Insurance and Corporate Counsel and others, have elected attorneys of Dykema to membership; many of whom hold leadership positions with these organizations and have served as president of each.

The firm’s practice comprehends many disciplines, and the attorneys who support our practice areas are thoroughly experienced in these disciplines. Our attorneys handle matters from product development, planning and initial investigation of claims, through discovery, trial and appeal. We also act as national counsel for clients who have litigation exposure throughout the United States and desire a consistent, effective strategy and planning, including alternatives to litigation.

Dykema attorneys will explore every option - negotiation, alternative dispute resolution, mediation, arbitration, litigation - and weigh all the options before deciding with clients the best and most cost-effective resolution strategy. Once in court, our trial lawyers advocate their client’s position aggressively and effectively and have produced results which have achieved the desired outcome and often changed the law. Frequent referrals from other law firms lacking a litigation practice or appellate experience are a testament to our success.

The judiciary, corporations, law schools and other counsel have come to recognize the excellence and professionalism of our representation and experience. Dykema attorneys listen to your needs and become a part of your team, working directly with you at all times.
