Bradley N. Pollock has been successfully representing people hurt or killed by the wrongful conduct of others for more than twenty-five years. He has secured numerous record-setting financial recoveries for his clients both at trial and through settlement, which have been featured in the news.
Brad began his legal career in 1995 working as an insurance defense attorney in Chicago. He then elected to switch sides taking his defense experience and using it for the benefit of his injured plaintiff clients. Since that time, Mr. Pollock has dedicated himself to obtaining justice for his clients and, at the same time, promoting change to prevent future unnecessary injury or loss of life.
Brad concentrates his legal practice in areas that include:
The Illinois Supreme Court has appointed Mr. Pollock, by order of the Court, to serve: (1) on its Supreme Court Character and Fitness Committee for the Second District of Illinois from 2010-2020 (acting as its Chair from 2013 to 2017); (2) on its Supreme Court Civil Jury Instruction Committee; and (3) as one of nine attorneys on the Attorney Registration & Disciplinary Commission (ARDC) Review Board.
The legal community has also recognized Mr. Pollock’s accomplishments. In 2018 Brad was selected by Super Lawyers Magazine as one of the lawyers on its ‘The Top 100’ list in Illinois for 2018 and 2019. ‘The Top 100’ list consists of 100 lawyers selected from all areas of the legal practice throughout the State of Illinois. With over 90,000 lawyers in Illinois, it is quite a distinction. In 2016, Mr. Pollock was named “Lawyer of the Year” by the DuPage County Bar Association. Brad has been selected by his peers in Illinois as a “Super Lawyer” in personal injury since 2008 (a distinction given to less than 5% of lawyers in his field). A survey of Illinois lawyers conducted by the Law Bulletin Publishing Company has also named him a “Leading Lawyer” in personal injury (limited to less than 5% of lawyers in his field).
Brad has been chosen as a “Top 100 Trial Lawyer” by the National Trial Lawyers since 2013. He also holds a “Superb” rating from AVVO. Brad also serves on the Illinois State Bar Association Tort Section Council (acting as Chair from 2016-2017) and on the Civil Practice Section Council. At the request of the DuPage County Bar Association, Brad acted as the lawyer (general counsel) for the legal organization from 2011-2013 and again from 2018-2020.
He is a Past President of the American Inns of Court, Robert E. Jones Chapter. Brad has given numerous lectures to fellow attorneys in the area of injury law, including outside of the State of Illinois. He also serves as an adjunct professor at Midwestern University and as a member of the College of DuPage Paralegal Studies Advisory Council.
