As a trial lawyer for more than 35 years, Richard J. Grossman has long been recognized for the extraordinary results he has achieved for his clients. Richard J. Grossman has achieved a Preeminent  5.0 AV-rating for superior legal ability and ethical standards under the Martindale-Hubbell's peer review system and Mr. Grossman was named as one of the top personal injury attorneys in Illinois in, Illinois Super Lawyer, by a survey of his peers, which was published by Chicago Magazine. He was also named a Top 100 Trial Lawyer by the National Trial Lawyers Association.

Mr. Grossman represents people who have been wrongfully killed or seriously injured through the fault of individuals and corporations. He has recovered a remarkable number of multi-million dollar settlements and verdicts for his clients in a variety of personal injury and wrongful death cases, including medical malpractice, products liability, motor vehicle, aviation and railroad negligence. Mr. Grossman's most recent victory was the recovery of $8.3 Million for a tire serviceman who was seriously injured as a result of the explosion of a multi-piece rim.

His relentless pursuit of case facts, discovery, and trial preparation separates him from most other attorneys. While they are delegating important depositions to inexperienced associate attorneys, Mr. Grossman is personally performing that task. When a witness or party is deposed, he knows that there is only one chance to get it right or lose the case. The trial is the culmination of careful and intensive preparation. Although trial attorneys are known to the public for their courtroom skills, pretrial preparation is what wins the case. This work ethic often forces the defense into submission and an early maximum settlement.

In addition to his Chicago trial lawyer practice, Richard J. Grossman has participated in the training of many young attorneys in the art of trial advocacy. Years later they continue to rely upon him for advice on their pending cases.
