Ridge & Downes, LLC

Don't ever use this firm for workers compensation case. Karin ruined my life and completely screwed up my case, turned a 6 figures settlement into practically nothing. Also made my life a living hell due to the firm's complacency and ultimately I got fired from my job and became homeless. Thanks so much ridge & downes, my life is a complete hell now!

I had the unfortunate experience of falling on silly putty that had been brought to a high school where I was teaching, and I fell and broke my kneecap and needed to endure two surgeries and much time off of my leg. Of course I was at a disadvantage and in a great deal of pain. Being confused, I procured the services of Ridge & Downes Law Offices to help me with compensation and assistance in making my difficulties understood by the Chicago Public Schools where the accident took place. It was clear from the beginning that my association with Ridge & Downes would be a smooth and beneficial experience, and that is exactly how my experience played out. I was kept informed in a professional manner, I was treated with respect throughout negotiations, and I was awarded a settlement that I would never have seen if I had to navigate this potentially negative process on my own or with a lesser law firm. Therefore, my case was settled in a timely manner and my respect for The staff of Ridge & Downes is immeasurable! A five star performance on their part!

I was Hurt badly in 2012 lost my left leg and destroyed most of my body. James Ridge and Amy lee fought endlessly for my rights and my benefits. Hopefully I am not hurt again but if I need to refer anyone to an injury attorney that actually will care Ridge & Downes is who you are looking for. Thank You!!! Ridge and Downes you saved my life and kept me from being homeless.

Don't expect much from these attorneys, like a return call or even that they remember your name... They have had my case for over 2 years and my new attorney never read my file and advised me to settle for almost nothing on a career ending injury. I would NOT recommend this firm.

I wouldn’t recommend this law firm. They screwed my case up from the beginning!
