Connolly Injury Law: Chicago Injury and Workers' Compensation From a Lawyer Who Argued in the Illinois Appellate Court After a Laborers' Local 4 Start

By Expert Attorneys

Connolly Injury Law is a Chicago workers' compensation and personal-injury firm opened in 2021 by Mark Connolly, who has represented injured plaintiffs and petitioners as a trial attorney since 2009. Before law school he worked as a union laborer and was a member of Laborers' Local 4. He earned his law degree cum laude from Northern Illinois University College of Law, served as Assistant Counsel to the Speaker of the Illinois House, and has argued before the Illinois Appellate Court. He personally handles each case rather than passing files through a rotating staff.

The docket covers construction, workplace, and delivery-driver injuries, third-party claims, head and brain injuries, motor vehicle and truck accidents, slip and falls, nursing-home abuse, and wrongful death. Union-worker and UPS-driver injury claims are part of that same practice, which is a different file from a standard car-accident claim and is the kind of work a former Laborers' Local 4 member is set up to take. Consultations are free and can be done in person or by Zoom, and clients pay no fee unless the firm recovers compensation.

The office is at 1720 W Division Street in Chicago and serves Chicago and Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will counties, as well as Peoria, Rockford, and other communities across Illinois. The firm's Google rating is 5.0 from 234 reviews.

A workplace injury, a later third-party claim, and an appellate issue can all stay with the lawyer who opened the firm after that Local 4 start, a House counsel post, and an Illinois Appellate Court argument. That 2009 trial practice, formalized as Connolly Injury Law in 2021, is how the Division Street office is run.

Nursing-home abuse and wrongful-death claims are taken with the injury docket, so a family that first called after a workplace or truck accident is not sent elsewhere if a later death or facility-abuse filing is what the case becomes. Head and brain injury files are part of that same caseload.
