Robert Kopka

At Kopka, I lead a team of talented lawyers, each of whom is dedicated to providing value to our clients in every engagement. We provide proactive, well-planned, hard nosed yet realistic representation of corporations, professionals and insurance carriers. Our clients expect and receive concierge service. We recognize that effective representation starts with the development of a personal relationship with our clients. We begin every representation with a comprehensive assessment of the dispute, a budget and a realistic game plan for a favorable resolution. From offices throughout Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Kentucky and Michigan, we handle a wide variety of business disputes, professional claims, commercial litigation and insurance defense matters. We employ a range of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms; but when we cannot or should not settle, we try the case to verdict. We try more cases to verdict than most firms our size and every one of our Shareholders and most of our attorneys have tried many jury trials to verdict. As Managing Partner, I make sure that every one of our professionals lives and breathes the concierge service for which we are renown. We are innovators in litigation management. We employ a variety of alternative fee arrangements and we are fully compliant with our clients' litigation management guidelines The value that we add to every engagement is reflected in the numerous repeat assignments, the accolades we receive and the referrals that we entertain. Our firm's core values include treating all people with respect. We are diverse. We are dynamic. We are effective. I am proud to lead a team of legal professionals who think differently and whose stated mission is to provide value-added, proactive and success-oriented representation to corporate and claim professionals who quickly become our partners and our friends.
