About

Craig S.

One of his most satisfying efforts was the firm’s work with the Aurora police union. “We’re very proud of Aurora, in particular,” Mielke explains. “We believe they have one of the best contracts in Illinois.”“Workers’ compensation vary dramatically in size and difficulty, so we can take the smaller cases,” he said. “We try to be of service to all clients big and small.” As it relates to personal injury cases, Mielke agrees with the philosophy of his partners: Doing the best you can, on a professional and emotional level, for people dealing with a difficult time in their lives. “A happy client is our best advertiser to the outside,” he said.Mielke currently serves as chairman of the Kane County Bar Association’s Civil Practice Committee.

I hired Craig for a disability pension case. Craig walked my wife and me through every step of the process. Whenever we had questions, Craig got back to us in a very timely manner, most times we received an answer the same day. Craig took the stress out of the legal process, which we can't thank him enough for. We couldn't be more satisfied with his work and genuine kind heart.

Craig and his staff were professional and responsive. They answered all questions we had without delay and handled our claim in a professional and efficient manner. We would surely recommend him to any of our friends or family who needed an attorney for workers comp or employment/labor issues. Top notch firm! Thanks for everything.

Craig is a very skilled and gifted W/C attorney who was able to navigate the BS my employer was selling after a work place injury. He provided upfront case information, face to face meetings were easy to book, and was able to reach a reasonable settlement. His open and honest no none sense demeanor made a difficult situation manageable. I hope to never go through this again but Craig would be my choice again. Thank u to Craig and to Kerri his assistant.

Craig handled my wc claim very professionally. Clearly explained the process and time frame. He kept my employer from taking advantage of me and secured me a great settlement. Craig is well versed on the wc laws and took the time to make sure I updated regularly on my case. I highly recommend Craig for for any wc issues and will surely retain him again if needed.
