About

Phelan Law Group was founded by James E. Phelan in 2014 to better serve the needs of our clients. Previously, Mr. Phelan practiced personal injury and construction defect litigation at a large Chicago law firm, where he had been a partner since 2005.

 

Phelan Law Group is a first-rate trial firm, and has earned this reputation in the only meaningful way – by trying cases. Our list of prior jury verdicts is the ultimate testament of our abilities. However, we also believe that the majority of cases should not be resolved by trial. In many situations, our clients’ needs are better served through early resolution of the matter, either by mediation, arbitration, or even pre-suit negotiations. An initial investigation and evaluation of the case, straightforward dealing with opposing counsel, and clear communication with the client often result in contested matters being resolved early, which benefits the client before needless time and expense are wasted on litigation.

 

We take pride in working with every single one of our clients, and are always striving to meet their needs with a shared litigation philosophy. Ultimately, our clients receive the benefit of having their matters handled with maximum efficiency, because we listen to their concerns and desires, and act accordingly.

 

Phelan Law Group concentrates its practice in all areas of personal injury and construction defect litigation. The following are the most common types of cases that we handle.
