Personal injury and workers' compensation — handled by a former federal appellate practitioner who has argued before the Seventh Circuit, litigated civil RICO in federal district court, and achieved settlements against major institutions including the Chicago Bears.

Marc Trent's legal career was built in the demanding environment of federal litigation — civil RICO, Big Tech platform liability, federal appellate advocacy before the Seventh Circuit, and complex institutional disputes including a settlement against the Chicago Bears.
The decision to concentrate his practice on personal injury and workers' compensation was deliberate. Federal litigation teaches things that state court practice does not: the documentation standards that survive appellate review, the anticipation of opposing strategy that forecloses their strongest arguments, and the trial credibility that changes an insurer's settlement calculation.
