LOEVY & LOEVY TRACK RECORD
Over the years, Loevy & Loevy has amassed a truly extraordinary record of success obtaining compensation and justice for our clients, both in the courtroom and through negotiation and mediation. All told, Loevy & Loevy has obtained jury verdicts totaling more than $50,000,000 over the past 10 years, plus millions more in settlements for our clients. Of the hundreds of clients we have represented over the years, the number of Loevy & Loevy clients who lost (recovered nothing) is less than 1 percent, a remarkably low figure for this area of the law.
Despite the difficulties associated with winning civil rights cases, we have won 12 out of our past 14 jury trials. Against the City of Chicago alone, the last five times we have gone to trial, the city was confident enough about its chances to offer little more than "nuisance value" to settle the cases: in the end, Loevy & Loevy obtained million-dollar-plus jury verdicts in four of these trials.
Loevy & Loevy has also developed an outstanding record in the appellate courts. The firm has litigated dozens of cases in appellate courts around the country, winning far more often than the norm for civil rights cases. Attorney Jon Loevy, for example, has won six out of his last seven arguments in the Seventh Circuit. This is an outstanding record of appellate success.
We have secured major victories for our clients against the City of Chicago, other municipalities in the Chicagoland metro area, and cities throughout Illinois and many other states.
