I can’t say enough on how satisfied I am with Keating Law Office. On August 28,2021 I was left hook by a car while riding my bicycle one day. I was rushed to the hospital and ended up with a right collar bone shattered in 10 pieces, compression fracture in my right knee, and my 1-month-old brand new 2022 Emonda SL5 carbon road bike destroyed. The next day I reached out to Keating Law, which was a Sunday and left a message, expecting a call on Monday. Instead, Michael Keating called me back in less than 5 minutes. On Monday he sent me all the paperwork to sign, which I e singed. From there Tom Reuland took over my case. Tom handled everything without needing much from me. I did send him my bill only because the hospital was slow and getting him the bills, and he asked if I would be able to send them in hasten the case. Which I was happy to do as I already had them in digital form. I cannot say how great the experience I had with Tom Reuland and Keating law. They handled everything and I did not have to worry about anything except for healing. He handled the property damage claim on my bike pro bono and got me the total cost of my bike and accessories reimbursed to me. The whole process from injury to check in hand was just under 5 months. I would recommend them to anyone who need a good lawyer, and they are also cyclist and so you can trust them if you are ever injured while riding your bike look no further.

I was hit by a car while riding my bike. Mr. Reuland took my case. I received much more than I expected to. I highly recommend him.

I was extremely please with the prompt and professional help I received from Keating Law Offices, with personal attention from Tom Rueland. I learned about them from a seminar their office presented at our bike club about 6 months prior to my accident. I remember they said not to speak to the driver's agent and all Keating first. I was riding my bike and obeying all laws when I was injured. It was hard to remember much as I was pretty dazed. Their office managed to obtain all needed documents from the police and hospital and put together an excellent plea for my case. I was not required to do much as I was pretty ignorant of everything and their office made everything seamless. Tom followed up, kept me up to date, always replied to my texts, and calls and was thorough. Thus, I needed to do little except heal. He even informed me there would be a trial and I had to be on zoom with the judge and opposing lawyer. That was tricky but went really well. I don't wish anyone to be injured. If you are, you need to contact a good firm such as this for help as there is so much that has to be done. Allison

Working with Tom and his firm was a breeze and I would emphatically recommend them to anyone. Tom represented me after a bad hit-and-run bicycle accident. Having him as an advocate put my mind at ease and ensured that I made the right decisions along the path to a settlement. Tom and his team were highly communicative and are great assets to the Chicago bicycle community. If you have even slightest thought that you may need representation I suggest contacting them a for straightforward and candid consultation.

Tom was an excellent lawyer to work with from day one. My case got passed along to him and while initially scared to switch lawyers, Tom handled my case timely and professionally. Tom is both personable and professional, and while I hope to not need a lawyer again in the near future, I do hope our paths cross again.

Tom and his team worked hard to get a fair settlement for my injury case. He took the time to explain everything that I needed to know to make the best decision possible in my case. Hopefully I will not need him again, but if I did, I would not hesitate to call on his firm again.

I have had the pleasure recently to use Mr. Reuland services when my Father was involved and injured in an accident while walking on a crosswalk. Mr. Reuland is very professional, knowledgeable and attentive. He explained the process to us very well and was always immediate in his responses when we had any questions and concerns. The final outcome was more than we expected! We were hesistant hiring an attorney since we never used one for any services before but we are very happy we did! The whole process took shorter than we thought and it was much smoother than I expected. If I would need to hire an Injury attorney again I would definitely hire Mr Reuland! I will recommend him to all my friends and family!

Mr. Reuland recently settled a case for me and I am very impressed with his service. He took over the case from another attorney and made it a priority to contact me and quickly move my settlement to resolution. I would definitely contact him in the future if the need arises.
