MICHAEL SORICH, PARTNER: CAVANAGH LAW GROUP

Michael Sorich is a veteran trial attorney who has obtained more than $80 million in verdicts and settlements for clients in Illinois and across the United States. A former prosecutor, Sorich has expertise in every facet of personal injury law, with extensive experience in trucking, wrongful death, and medical malpractice. Sorich has had the opportunity to try hundreds of cases in both state and federal courts, and his experience before juries is invaluable and has allowed him to develop his presentation skills and to think quickly on his feet. “My experience has also taught me what it takes to properly prepare a case for trial and how to digest vast amounts of information quickly,” he says. Trying a case before a jury is an intense experience for both lawyer and client. Thanks to his experience, Sorich knows how to manage trials and get the best results for his clients. Sorich was an accounting major at Illinois Wesleyan University when he volunteered with the local prosecutor’s office and was given the opportunity to be in court observing jury trials every day. This ignited his passion to advocate for victims in front of a jury and he realized how incredibly important it is for their voices to be heard. He went on to graduate cum laude from UIC John Marshall Law School, where he was a member of the school’s Law Review. He has obtained numerous settlements and verdicts over $1 million, among them a $2.1 million settlement for a cement truck driver who suffered spinal cord injuries in a low-impact crash. Sorich has been included in the Chicago Law Bulletin’s “Top 40 under 40” attorneys and is a sought-after speaker and guest lecturer.
