Over the past five years, the firm has obtained $18 million in compensation for its clients while winning 96% of all of its cases.

In the past five years, the firm has expanded to include three attorneys with a combined 20 years of legal experience, four staff members, and an on-staff physician and nurse consultant ? imagine what the firm can accomplish in the next four!

Timothy M. Whiting Named as Top Lawyer In Illinois

Mr. Timothy Whiting was named one of the top 40 lawyers under age 40 in Illinois. The Chicago Lawyer had this to say about why Mr. Whiting received this rare distinction:

"Most young lawyers in their 30s are still working their way through the ranks. Timothy Whiting, though, has taken that biggest of steps: At age 33, he's already formed his own law firm, Whiting Law Group, Ltd., a firm with offices in Chicago and Wisconsin.

So far, Whiting's firm is thriving. Just last year, he obtained the second largest settlement ever recorded in Rock County, Wisconsin in an automobile case of its kind. And this is just one of many successful results Whiting has attained in his brief legal career. In several other cases he has obtained significant settlements where the defendants have vigorously denied liability. In fact, Whiting recently obtained one of the first ever significant jury verdicts against the City of Kenosha in Wisconsin in a trip and fall case after the City made no offer.

Whiting's early successes have caused several of his peers to predict a bright future for him.

"I have seldom encountered a young attorney with the initiative, diligence, personality, ability and apparent excellent relationships with clients, associates and adversaries that I have observed in Tim," said Chicago attorney Arnold Rosen.

Before opening his own firm, Whiting practiced at the law firm of Hinshaw & Culbertson. During his four-and-a-half years here, Whiting successfully defended numerous personal injury and medical malpractice cases in both Wisconsin and Illinois.

After his successful term at Hinshaw & Culbertson, Whiting took the risk of opening his own law firm. In May of 2000, he opened The Whiting Law Group in Chicago and Delavan, Wisconsin, to exclusively represent plaintiffs in personal injury, medical malpractice and wrongful death cases.

Has the firm been successful? Take a look at the numbers; Since opening the firm, Whiting has had recoveries for his clients in Illinois and Wisconsin in excess of $2 million dollars. These accomplishments are even more impressive considering that Whiting, before opening his own firm, primarily worked on the defense side of the bar. In fact, he built his plaintiff's firm without any prior experience at a personal injury firm and without the assistance of any established plaintiff's personal injury firms.

There is no secret to Whiting's success. His peers know that Whiting works as hard as any young lawyer in the state. He has the work ethic and confidence to handle any type of case regardless of how difficult or how high the exposure. In fact, he is currently handling numerous high profile personal injury cases and serious medical malpractice cases."
