I believe they would take the same position against any professional who misrepresents their credentials.” Michael V. Favia, Chicago IDFPR Attorney and Principal Attorney at Michael V.

I was rear ended by a reckless, moronic truck driver three years ago in Indiana. I live in Illinois, and I am a truck driver as well, so I was referred to Michael by my doctor. Despite the accident happening in Indiana, I felt that Michael and Tom Kain came through for me. Insurance companies for the trucking industry loves to be a pain in the rear when it comes to settlements, and this one was no exception. Michael made sure that all of my bills was accounted for, paid, and his expenses were very fair. I would have no trouble in recommending Michael to other people. He is very down to earth and will not make false promises. I received a good settlement in despite of Indiana's nutty laws, and am glad of the results.
