Workers Compensation & Personal Injury Attorneys & Counselors At Law

At Horwitz, Horwitz and Associates, we understand the impact personal injury can have on an individual's work, family and lifestyle.

Since 1924, we’ve continued a tradition begun by the Jacob W. Horwitz and then his son Andrew J. Horwitz, representing individuals against corporate wrongdoers and insurance companies who routinely take advantage of those who have been injured. Clifford and Mitchell Horwitz are third generation trial lawyers who continue to follow that tradition. Our firm has never represented corporate interests and never will.

Clifford Horwitz has won every case he’s taken to trial in the past 23 years, with over 40% of his victories representing record-setting verdicts. Our team of eight Partners and five Associate Attorneys contribute to a legacy of successful litigation that few firms can claim.

Our distinction is more than a legacy of record-setting verdicts. It’s found in the countless cases felt too difficult for other firms to accept; cases that Horwitz, Horwitz & Associates skillfully prosecuted and won, recovering millions of dollars for clients who had been denied representation by others.

With offices conveniently located in Chicago and Joliet, we advocate for personal injury clients throughout the state of Illinois.
