Our History, Our Passion

Protecting Working Men and Women


An estimated 300,000 work-related injuries occur each year in the State of Illinois. For three generations, the attorneys of Horwitz, Horwitz and Associates have represented workers who have been injured on the job, recovering millions of dollars for our clients through jury verdicts, directed judgments, administrative rulings and out-of-court settlements.

An ironworker suffered a knee injury when he was knocked off a beam by a crane. He was initially represented by a different personal injury law firm. After becoming discouraged, he consulted with Horwitz, Horwitz and Associates. In less than a year, we recovered 2.5 million dollars for the injured ironworker.

Many of our clients were initially represented by other personal injury law firms and told, “You have no case.” Looking to settle cases quickly and easily at reduced compensation, injured workers have often been told by other firms that their case had only modest value and should be settled out of court. Our firm has recovered millions on behalf of countless injured workers who were previously denied proper representation.

When a dock plate fell injuring a laborer, his prominent, personal injury law firm wrote him a letter telling him to accept a $125,000 settlement offer. Instead he came to Horwitz, Horwitz and Associates and recovered 1.1 million dollars.
