Legal Services & Lawyers

As a personal injury attorney, Steven J. Malman has dedicated his entire legal career to protecting the rights of injured persons and helping them obtain the largest financial recovery possible for their injuries. That is why he founded the Law Offices of Steven J. Malman and Associates, P.C. in Chicago, Illinois in 1994.

He is committed to fighting for the rights of injured victims and holding liable the negligent parties accountable for their actions. He does this by offering his personal injury and workers' compensation clients the best legal representation available and aggressively pursuing their claim to obtain the best result possible for each case. Steven established his law firm with these objectives in mind and has built a legal team and staff that have the tools, experience, talent, dedication, and resources to get the job done right.

Steven believes that all injured persons have a right to quality legal representation—regardless of whether they have the funds to pay for this kind of service. This is why he is such a big advocate of the contingency fee system. You will only pay for his services if he obtains a collection for you, with all payments coming from your collection amount and never from your own pocket. He believes that every person who is injured because of another party's negligence has a right to financial compensation so that he or she can recover from their injuries, pay their medical bills, and get on with their lives.

Steven considers personal injury law to be his true calling and the only career he has ever wanted to pursue. While working for a medium-sized Chicago firm after graduating from law school, he amassed so many personal injury clients that wanted his representation and protection that he founded the Law Offices of Steven J. Malman & Associates, P.C. so he could provide them with the kind of legal representation and client service that they deserved and needed. Read some of his law firm's success stories to see how Steven continues to fulfill these goals and objectives for his personal injury and workers' compensation clients.

He is licensed to practice in Illinois at both the state and federal levels and is a member of the Illinois Trial Lawyers Association, the Chicago Bar Association, the American Bar Association, and the American Trial Association.

Steven has represented over 5,000 injury clients in every kind of personal injury and workers' compensation cases that there is, including truck accidents, police brutality/civil rights violation cases, car accidents, wrongful death cases, nursing home neglect and abuse cases, dog bite accidents, construction accidents, medical malpractice claims, slip and fall accidents, cerebral palsy injuries, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, train accidents, and products liability cases.

DRUGS / NARCOTICS

Have you been arrested or are you under investigation for the possession or sale of illegal drugs? Do you have questions of whether the police can charge you with possession of those drugs?

These are questions that an experienced and knowledgeable criminal defense drug lawyer can answer.
