Real Cases. Real Numbers. Here's What We've Won.
Every result on this page represents an actual recovery — a documented dollar amount from a real case we handled for a real person. Not projections. Not averages. What we actually won.
These cases span car accidents, truck accidents, workers' compensation claims, slip and falls, and product liability. If you're wondering whether your case is worth pursuing, start here.
Auto Accident Results
$1,760,000 — Auto Accident
Our client was struck by another vehicle and sustained serious injuries requiring surgery and extended rehabilitation. We established full liability against the at-fault driver and pursued the case through the insurance carrier's maximum exposure. The result was one of the firm's largest auto accident recoveries.
$500,000 — Hit by Uber Driver
A pedestrian was struck by an Uber driver operating in the course of a rideshare trip. We navigated the layered insurance structure that applies to rideshare incidents under Illinois law and secured a $500,000 settlement for our client.
$565,000 — Truck Accident
Our client was injured in a collision involving a commercial truck. We pursued claims against both the driver and the trucking company, establishing negligence in vehicle operation and maintenance. The case settled for $565,000.
Workers' Compensation Results
$500,000 — Workers' Compensation
Our client suffered a significant on-the-job injury that left them unable to return to their prior occupation. We pursued the full range of benefits available under the Illinois Workers' Compensation Act, including medical expenses, temporary total disability, and permanent partial disability. The case resolved for $500,000.
Premises Liability Results
$305,000 — Premises Liability
Our client was injured on a property where the owner had failed to address a known hazardous condition. We established the property owner's notice of the defect and duty to correct it, and recovered $305,000 on our client's behalf.
$250,000 — Slip and Fall
A slip and fall on a negligently maintained surface caused injuries that required medical treatment and time away from work. We documented the conditions, established liability, and secured a $250,000 settlement.
Product Liability Results
$1,850,000 — Product Liability
Our client was seriously injured by a defective product. We pursued the manufacturer under theories of defective design and failure to warn, and recovered $1,850,000 — the firm's largest single case result to date.
We've Taken On the Biggest Insurers in Illinois — and Won

What makes the difference isn't firm size. It's preparation, persistence, and knowing exactly how far to push. Our clients work directly with Jim Coyne from the first consultation through resolution. No hand-offs, no junior associates managing your file.

Do these results mean my case will settle for a similar amount?
Every case turns on its own facts — the nature of the injury, the liability picture, the available insurance coverage, and other factors specific to your situation. These results reflect what we have recovered in past matters and are not a guarantee of any particular outcome. A free consultation is the right starting point for evaluating what your case may be worth.

How do I know these results are real and not just marketing?
Each result listed on this page is a documented recovery from an actual case handled by this firm. There are no projections, no estimates, and no composite figures. The amounts shown are what we recovered.
These results are what we've accomplished. Yours could be next — but it starts with a conversation.
Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Every case is different, and the recovery in any individual matter depends on the specific facts, liability, and damages involved. This page is provided for informational purposes in compliance with Illinois attorney advertising rules.
