In 1995, Tom Scannell left a corporate litigation law firm to build a law practice designed to help families and entrepreneurs. Tom firmly believed then and more so now that all of us are entitled to the same quality legal representation that the big corporations receive downtown. Excellent and affordable legal representation for all became his mantra. With lifelong roots in the Southside of Chicago, Tom began his practice diligently advocating for the legal needs of families, friends and neighbors. Through word of mouth the practice quickly grew to where Scannell & Associates now assists clients throughout the Chicago metropolitan area. We encourage our clients to reach out to us for all their legal needs. Through our vast legal experiences, (81 years of practice between us) we have developed working relationships with some of the top lawyers in the State of Illinois. Our partners specialize in a wide range of legal areas including, catastrophic personal injury, criminal, malpractice, workers compensation, divorce, bankruptcy and class action litigation. If we do not handle a particular type of case we know the best lawyers that do. Our responsibility to our clients goes beyond offering sound legal advice. We serve as counselors to our clients providing practical guidance that is invaluable. Whether we are helping our clients purchase their first home or litigating against a fortune five hundred corporation, each can expect to receive excellent and affordable legal representation at Scannell & Associates. We want to be your lawyer for all your legal needs.
