About

I am passionate about representing my clients to the best of my ability and have been doing so successfully for 25 years.  This has won me the recognition of my peers as a Leading Lawyer in Illinois Workers Compensation and rated as one of the Best Lawyers in America.  I have taught numerous continuing legal education courses to other attorneys practicing workers compensation law and have even spoken as a guest lecturer to the Illinois Workers Compensation arbitrators and commissioners as part of their own continuing educational requirements. In addition, I believe in giving back to the community.  From running free speed and agility clinics to coaching youth sports to my involvement with Youth Lifeline America, I love teaching our children about the importance of self respect, self discipline, and achieving personal success on and off the field.

After dealing with workers compensation for over 3 years and being sent to inferior providers I retained Michael Korein he immediately took charge of case letting insurance know he was representing me and arranged for me to choose between 3 highly qualified Orthopedic Surgeons. I Can't thank him and his staff enough for their caring and professionalism in how the handled every aspect of my case and for keeping me informed.

My ordeal began dealing with the work compensation insurance company at the beginning of my injury. My injury was straight forward but the insurance company was not there to be helpful. Doctors told me not to wait to get my surgery as ill repairable damage would be done. I was struggling to get the ball rolling as the insurance kept dragging out my injury. My frustration lead me to Mike Korein. I didn't know what to expect. Mike was straight forward and answered all my questions. He returned my calls promptly when I was unable to speak with him. He took over and handled all the issues I had.His working with me, he cut though the nonsense.He kept me informed of the nonsense the insurance company was laying out. He was able to get the answers I couldn't. It wasn't long and I finally received the surgery I desperately needed. Having Mike on my side, I truly was so relieved. I can now move along with my life. He helped me receive compensation I was due and I'm thankful. Compensation I feel for not only the nagging pain I will continue live with, but the emotional pain of helplessness individuals like me endure when trying to deal with Insurance companies on our own. It's true, you need Mike if you want to be made whole. You'll just struggle trying to go about without him being on your side.

The best lawyer I've had by far. Goes above and beyond for his clients. As soon as he took my case on I had no worries. He took care of everything. 10/10 would recommend!

I was injured on the job while working for one of the larger corporations in the US. The company told me I was nothing to them and refused to do anything for me. I reached out to Mike and informed him of my situation. After a lengthy discussion I hired him and he proceeded to go to work. In short Mike defeated the giant corporation and ensured that I received all the medical attention and benefits I was entitled to under law. Diligence, quality, compassion, and grace under pressure are the attributes Mike Korein brings to the table; I couldn't ask for more. I highly recommend his services.

I have had the pleasure of having Michael Korein as my work-comp attorney. After being told by employer that I couldn’t file a claim, I contacted Michael. He reassured me that he would handle it. And, handle it, he did! Michael and his staff made the process as painless as possible. They took care of everything from beginning to end, making me feel comfortable with the entire process. He kept me up to date, along the way, and negotiated a great settlement. I would highly recommend to anyone!! Work-Comp and the treatment of employers is daunting enough, but when you have someone fighting for you, it does ease the burden. All I can say is- Exceptional Service, from start to finish!

He did a very good job with my case. I found him on AVVO and I am very happy he was listed here. I could not ask for a better attorney to handle my case. When I say he went above and beyond, he did. Thank you.

Mike Korein recently handled my work comp case. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my case. I would highly recommend Mr. Korein to anyone in need of legal assistance for a work comp case. He made sure the insurance company did their job! He always responded immediately to all of my inquiries either via phone or email. He's very knowledgeable in his field of law. All in all, just a very nice guy too. If you need a Worker's Comp attorney, I would definitely contact Mike and his staff. Very professional group of people.
