Businesses across the nation face unrelenting attack in the tort litigation system from an increasingly sophisticated, motivated and aggressive plaintiff's bar. Adverse verdicts are skyrocketing and eight-figure awards are no longer the exception, but a sad reality in today's litigation environment. In this turbulent and risky legal environment, Hall Prangle & Schoonveld, LLC, provides its clients with the sound, proven legal defense they need and deserve.
Hall Prangle & Schoonveld, LLC opened its doors for business in August 2002, but our roots in the catastrophic defense litigation field stretch back decades. The attorneys who created HPS comprised much of the medical litigation department at Lord Bissell & Brook LLP, one of the largest firms in Chicago with a century-long history of strong defense litigation experience.
Since that time, HPS has emerged as one of the premier litigation defense firms in the city. Based in Chicago, we have grown from our original group of 13 attorneys to our current strength of 70 attorneys located in 10 offices in six states, including Illinois, California, Colorado, Florida, Nevada and Utah.
