Firm Overview

At Barney & Karamanis, LLP, we focus on your needs first. We believe that the best attorney-client relationships are built on mutual trust and respect, so we make it our mission to provide high-quality services with a human touch. We're inspired by the people we work with, so you'll always find an attorney who's motivated to help.

Choosing a lawyer shouldn't cause you any more stress than you already have. At Barney & Karamanis, we provide hands-on attention to every single client, because we believe that every person is important. Your story is what matters not your bank account. Our lawyers serve you best by being:

Candid. We tell you the truth about your case from the beginning. We also discuss all of your options, so that you're fully informed about the choices you have.

Attentive. When you call, you speak with a person. Your questions are always answered by an attorney. We pride ourselves on being accessible to the people who need us, so we offer both traditional and video conferences.

Effective. We fight hard for our clients, and we have the results to prove it. We've won multiple cases where the damages awarded were in excess of half a million dollars. In fact, James won $1,100,000 in a settlement in Cook County, in a personal injury case where the plaintiff sustained injuries from a trash compactor at work.

Unlike some other Chicago law firms, we value our relationships with our clients above all else. We also assume responsibility for the financial risks, because we only get paid if you win.

How we can help you

Everyone's needs are different. It's always our goal to help as many members of our community as we can. Therefore, we offer legal assistance and services in a variety of areas:

Medical malpractice
Civil rights
Personal injury
Wrongful birth
Wrongful death
Catastrophic injuries
Our services extend far beyond this list, so you're sure to find a lawyer at the Karamanis Law Group, LLC who can help you. We're dedicated negotiators and litigators who work hard for our clients in and out of the courtroom. We're prepared to take on large companies in order to protect you and your best interests.

Medical Malpractice

Compassionate Counsel in Chicago Helps with All of Your Medical Malpractice Needs

Effective representation for the injured of Chicago

We trust our doctors and nurses with our lives literally. We expect that they know what medications we should take and what services we need. And on some level, we all understand that medical professionals are human, and humans make mistakes.

But when a doctor, nurse, surgeon or administrator makes a mistake so egregious that it costs your health, your livelihood or even the life of your loved one, it's time to take a stand. At the Karamanis Law Group, LLC, we help the victims of medical malpractice obtain the care and compensation they need and deserve. We take care of the details so you can focus on getting well as quickly as possible.

Learn what medical malpractice really means

The goal of a medical malpractice suit is to prove that your doctors or nurses, or surgeons did not maintain the proper standard of care when you were their patient. Medical professionals must maintain a certain level of competence. When the doctors fail to do that, you may have a medical malpractice case. Some of the more common medical malpractice suits involve:

Birth injuries
Traumatic brain injuries as a result of negligence
Wrongful death
Wrongful birth
Emergency room negligence
Prescribing the wrong medication
Surgical errors
Misdiagnoses
Problems when administering anesthesia
Cerebral palsy
Brachial plus injury/Erbs palsy/Klumpke's palsy
C-Section errors
Errors in inducing labor
Uterine ruptures
Pre-Eclampsia and HELLP Syndrome
Laparoscopic/Laparotomy injuries
The medical malpractice attorneys at the Karamanis Law Group, LLC have more than 100 years of combined experience fighting for patients who have been injured in some way due to the negligence of a medical professional. We guide you through every step of the process so that you always know what to expect during your case.

How we can help you with your case

When you're injured because of the negligence of a doctor, nurse or surgeon, we believe that you're entitled to compensation. We also believe that the institution should be held responsible for the damages it caused. Services we provide may include:

Reviewing medical records. Your medical records may tell us more about why you were injured. We review your charts, your trips to the doctor, your prescriptions any documentation available that can tell us more about your illness or injury.
Consulting experts. In a medical malpractice case it's your word against the word of the negligent medical professional. We consult with medical experts to establish the understood standard of care. We may also use their testimony in court to present your case.
Researching your doctor. It's important to prove that the doctor, nurse or surgeon was negligent in his or her behavior. We conduct research to determine the level of competence of the medical care you received.

Speak with an attorney who doesn't get paid unless you do

The most important part of your case is you. At Karamanis Law Group, LLC, we want you to be able to focus on getting the help you need, so that you can recover quickly and safely. To set up a free consultation with one of our lawyers, call our Chicago office at 312.588.6766 or contact us online. We're open between 8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. every weekday.
