John J. Dwyer, Jr. was first licensed to practice law in 1981 and he remains licensed to practice in State and Federal Courts in Illinois. John graduated from John Marshall Law School in 1981 where he served on the Editorial Board for the John Marshall Law Review.

The scope of John's practice expanded to include the litigation of a wide range of personal injury claims including cases involving automobile negligence, premises liability and medical malpractice. He has litigated over 30 lawsuits to verdict and resolved cases of significant complexity and value through mediation and arbitration.
John founded The Law Offices of John J. Dwyer, Jr. in 1989. The practice was limited to the representation of victims of personal injury. Over 97% of the cases handled by the firm have resulted in verdicts or settlements for our clients. The success of the firm may be attributed to thorough case evaluation, attention to detail and knowledge of the medical conditions our clients suffer. John's work as an honest advocate for victims of personal injury continues to win him the respect of his colleagues and opponents. He has also remained involved in the legal community as a member of the Illinois Trial Lawyer's Association and recently served as co-editor of the Automobile Litigation Book, 2002 Edition, published by the Illinois Trial Lawyer's Association. The Automobile Litigation Book is a resource for personal injury lawyers which covers many of the issues such attorneys must address when handling automobile negligence claims.
By 1996 the firm had grown and John hired Daniel McDevitt as his associate. Dan was first licensed to practice law in 1996 in both State and Federal Courts in Illinois. Dan graduated from DePaul University Law School and limits his practice to representing plaintiffs who have suffered personal injury and wrongful death. Dan is a member of the Illinois Trial Lawyer's Association and serves on the Medical Negligence Committee. He is also a member of the Association of Trial Lawyer's of America and Illinois State Bar Association. Dan has a particular interest in federal regulation of the trucking industry and its impact on trucking litigation as well as the manner in which the interest of a health or auto insurer may be reduced to maximize the client's recovery. Dan has tried cases to verdict involving automobile negligence, trucking negligence and medical malpractice and has resolved a variety of cases through mediation and arbitration including cases involving premises liability.
