Chicago Commercial Litigation Lawyers
Myron M. Cherry & Associates, LLC is a trial law firm specializing in complex civil litigation. The firm’s practice includes all areas of commercial litigation, including, but not limited to, fraud, antitrust, securities, contract, environmental, labor/employment, corporate governance, civil rights, intellectual property and class actions.
Founded in 1973, Myron M. Cherry & Associates, LLC is one of the few established firms in the United States that regularly undertakes major commercial litigation on a wholly or partly contingent-fee basis. The firm’s innovative fee approach expands the availability of quality legal services to clients with good claims but limited resources to pursue them. The firm also represents larger clients and corporations – on either an hourly basis or on a contingent or other results-driven basis to enable clients with funds to pay for legal services to reduce out-of-pocket legal fees and concentrate on results. A substantial number of the cases the firm handles emanate from referrals from other law firms.
The firm, while based in Illinois, handles matters throughout the country and has lawyers licensed to practice in California, the District of Columbia, Minnesota and Wisconsin. The firm is well versed in coordinating and handling extremely large and complicated cases, is completely thorough in its analyses and preparation, is uniquely creative in both its legal and practical approaches, and is aggressive in its pursuit of its clients’ interests and favorable results.
