Chicago Personal Injury & Divorce Law

This country is going through big changes at the moment. Few people are as qualified to discuss dramatic paradigm shifts as well as an attorney that focuses on personal injury and divorce law.

Attorney Russell Knight has been practicing law for 14 years. His origin story begins in Canada where he was born and raised. Mr Knight was initially a web developer before realizing his true passion, helping people.

For Russel, helping people meant becoming a lawyer and fighting the good fight.

In 2006 Mr. Knight began his legal career working for a small law firm in Chicago. He honed his legal chops helping 100 clients over a 3 year period, but knew he was destined for more. But what is more? For Russell more involved opening his own law firm and helping victims of divorce and personal injury.

One of Mr. Knight’s biggest obstacles as an attorney involves overcoming the perception of being a lawyer. Most people consider attorneys to be like car salesmen, untrustworthy. Mr. Knight explains this through his experience negotiating with insurance professionals.

“After a car accident a victim will call their insurance agent to report damages,” says Mr Knight. “People trust their insurance companies to do right by them. This is intentional. There is a reason companies like All State have the slogan you’re in good hands,” Mr. Knight continues.

The reality is that insurance companies are in the business of making money. The way they do that is by paying as little money as possible to their customers, individuals injured in accidents. But knowledgeable, experienced attorneys like Russell Knight make their living ensuring honest victims of circumstance are not taken advantage of by big business.

In fact, a recent study showed that auto accident victims who hire a personal injury lawyer receive 4X more than individuals who negotiate with the insurance companies on their own. It seems, perhaps, attorneys earn a bad reputation for the wrong reasons.
