About Daniel Jonathan Pylman

For essentially the entirety of Dan’s legal career, he has been handling medical malpractice cases. A good portion of that time was spent defending medical institutions and medical professionals. Daniel J. Pylman impressively graduated Wheaton College summa cum laude in 2006 and Chicago Kent College of Law cum laude in 2009. But Dan’s story is as much heart as it is smarts. During a successful career as a defense lawyer, Dan saw firsthand the uphill battle malpractice victims face as they search for answers and accountability.

Dan joined CHH in 2017 because, he says, he “wanted the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of those who need it the most.”

Now, as a plaintiff’s attorney who specializes in medical malpractice, he has the opportunity to do just that. Each day, Dan says he wakes up knowing that he has the privilege of advocating for others and helping them manage the overwhelming stress that comes with being injured and bringing a lawsuit.

Outside of his law practice, Dan is proud to be a husband and the father of two girls. Dan lives with his family in the Ravenswood neighborhood of Chicago, where he is involved in his local church and enjoys spending time with family, running, biking, cooking, reading good novels, exploring Chicago neighborhoods, and eating good food.

Since 2012, Mr. Pylman has been selected as a Rising Star by Super Lawyers.

Working with Dan was a pleasure, he was the most compassionate and caring professional that we could have find. He communicated with us everything that we needed to know during the process. I felt that he genuinely cared about the work he was doing and about my family and I. He answered all our questions and was always available when we needed something. Going through legal processes can take a toll on one emotionally and Dan went above and beyond in that aspect, he was not only our attorney but a source of support during the process. I would highly recommend him to any friend or family member.

CHH helped our family after my SO suffered malpractice and consequently lifelong debilitation. We’d met with a few legal teams before we found our attorney, Dan Pylman. Dan, (knowing a a good deal about seemingly everything) recognized immediately that our case was worth looking into. He couldn’t quite believe what had happened. A very different tone from the other legal teams. We worked with CHH and specifically Dan for years. I’ve seen just how he has come to be such a font of medical information. It also became clear just how much Dan loves his job. He was in his element when he was calling out the defenses lies and holding them accountable. Dan was always working, researching, and talking to experts everywhere. Because of this dogged pursuit, he uncovered even more hugely negative aspects of our treatment. CHH’s advertisement said they help their clients get their lives back on track. This is the absolute truth. They do it well and care deeply.

I was referred to this firm from a family member and although the type of case I requested they help with might have been outside their wheelhouse they graciously aided me along my way to a medical and financial remedy I was due. They stayed in touch with me through the long process and only asked for a reasonable portion of winnings. I would recommend to others.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
