Ankin Law was great for me & helped me reach a great settlement. I appreciate all the hard work, time & effort they put forth. I was assisted by Derek Lax and his team. Thanks again for everything.

My experience with Ankin law was great. Justin L was transparent with communication and was able to get the job done one of which seemed like mission impossible. I would recommend Ankin to friends and family as I was satisfied with the service.

Briefly I just like to say thank you to Scott Goldstein of a Ankin Law . Speaking from a common worker is myself and many others out there that have no idea where to go when youre injured on a job or other injuries Scott Goldstein is in my summation one of the most culpable attorneys I have ever encountered and I thank the Lord I Ankin Law to Represent me in court if there was a way to give six stars I would anytime the insurance company would try to shortchange me on an operation or my compensation check Scott probably got on the phone and made it right for me.

A special shout out to Howard Ankin For not only hiring damn good attorneys but ones that also care I have nothing but praise for this firm again if youre ever in any kind of Accident whether it be on the job or somewhere else you owe it to yourself to go to the Best thats Ankin Law

Although this was the first time using with a law firm, my attorney Jonel was very professional and very knowledgable about everything we went through. He was on time with everything and also kept it very real with me. I would without a doubt use them again or recommend them to anyone! Thank you again!!

I was injured on my job 10/17 and taken to a facility affiliated with the company i worked for whom did an x-ray and from there out started pumping me full of multiple prescriptions which wasn't helping and 30 days later tried to sign me off with a clean bill of health immediately i knew they were trying to shaft me and by then my pain was even more intense,i was reffered to Ankin Law by a family's friend and after i called Ankin Law and explained my situation the A TEAM got right down to buisness i was never left in the dark about anything every question or concerns i had were tended to so im giving Ankin Law a BIG THUMBS UP and THANK YOU for representing me and protecting me from a company whom only wanted to brush me off as trash also my assigned attorney JOSH RUDOLFI got instant results in every area of my case and i am very grateful for all your support thank you sir and thanks Ankin Law the Chi Town "A-TEAM" THANK YOU.

This was my first time needing a law firm
I googled it read reviews called and this was a quick easy process. Within a few days Scott Goldstein sent out his partner Rocko to my house to explain my case and sign my paperwork.(big A+) from there within a month they settled my case and within 5 weeks I was signing my settlement agreement!!!!! I have to say that was quick compared to reviews I read from other law firms!!! If I ever need representation again I know where to go ANKIN LAW!!!!

Ankin Law came highly recommended through my co-workers when my Workmans Comp Case was denied. Mr. Ankin filed motions after motion where he skillfully prevailed over an outstanding opposing Law Firm. Mr. Ankin skill allowed me to provide for my family and receive the excellent medical treatment that I required. Also, I just got off the phone with Mr. Ankin on a Wednesday at 9:30 p.m. First time ever an attorney has called me from his office at this time to address my concerns. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

My mom Has an active work comp case. I would like to point out that Professionalisms serves as a foundation for a great firm. Esmeralda is always able to articulate any questions we have, solving her problems quickly and always being kind to her. I feel confident referring my family and friends to her.

I clerked at Ankin Law for a year during law school. The atmosphere is always positive and the experience has been invaluable! The attorneys as well as the legal staff are extremely approachable and are always willing to lend a helping hand in any matter. With that being said, the attorneys and legal assistants do whatever they can to help their clients. This includes dropping whatever they are doing to assist a client in their concerns and they will even stay well into the evening until these issues have been resolved.

Attorney Scott Goldstein for example, will stop whatever he is doing an answer a call from a concerned client and he will make it a point to have the issue resolved before the call has ended. This is important and I have found this to be the essential reason as to why the Ankin Law attitude of putting their clients first has become so contagious throughout the firm. I would recommend this firm to a close family member - and that is saying something!

10/10 recommend.

I am a local 743 member for almost 30 years of which at least the last 5-6 years Howard has been speaking at our membership meetings. At no time did I ever think I would need to obtain the wisdom of Ankin Law. I had a personal injury...who did I call? Ankin Law, I am truly blessed to have retained all the information Howard would speak of at our meetings. From my first email I knew this was the attorney office for me.

I received a return call from Eli who took all my information and within a day or 2 my case was being handled by Justin. What an awesome, amazing attorney that shows the passion for his job as well as his compassion for the client. Justin is in constant communication with me, checking on me and letting me know they are there for me. The fight is there for what is right and I am totally happy with my choice in a law firm. Case is still ongoing and Im hoping for whats due to me. There are no other personal injury attorneys that should cross your mind. Call Ankin Law they truly care.

I wanted to give Ankin Law a good review regarding your receptionist. I came in one day last week with a friend to drop off a package and I wanted to commend your receptionist, Trena, you have seated at the front. She was very professional because before we could get off the elevator, she met us half way with a genuine "Hello, how can I help you?" She was very personable, down to earth, and kept conversation as we waited.

While we were waiting in the lobby, we noticed how good she was as other clients who entered the lobby as well. She made everyone in the space feel welcomed and made sure we were taken care of in a time efficient manner. I believe that she is a great representation of the law office in regards to what a receptionist should be.

Best law firm that I have dealt with! I really want to give a BIG THANKS to Ms. Esmeralda Ruiz for all her hard work and dedication to my case. I was struggling with the insurance adjuster until I came in contact with Ms. Ruiz. Thanks to her I finally recieved pay! Ms. Ruiz is always concern making sure I am receiving the proper treatment! When I have a question or concern she's always willing to answer without any issues. I am glad I have her on my side and wouldn't change her at all! Best Attorney hands down!!!
