Entrusting the care of our loved ones to nursing home facilities is never an easy choice. However, we know that Illinois families do their best to place their aging parents and grandparents in facilities where they will be loved and cared for. Unfortunately, we also know that many nursing homes and assisted living facilities like to put on a good show, only to allow abusive and neglectful practices to continue behind closed doors.

Representing victims of nursing home neglect and abuse is a solemn responsibility we take seriously, treating every client with the dignity and compassion they deserve. In keeping with this mission, we strive to provide unrivalled legal guidance to nursing home neglect victims in Marion, IL.

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune is located on the Atlantic coast of North Carolina. For a period of more than 30 years, the drinking water at the base was contaminated with volatile organic compounds (VOCs) known to cause cancer, birth defects, and other serious health conditions.

The recent passage of the Camp Lejeune Justice Act created a legal avenue to file a lawsuit against the U.S. government for anyone who was affected by exposure to the base’s contaminated water. At Prince Law Firm, we understand that many of the veterans we meet with are concerned about what this type of lawsuit might mean for their future.

Prince Law Firm is pleased to announce that attorney Mark D. Prince was recently named as one of the Top 10 Personal Injury Plaintiff’s Lawyers for downstate Illinois.

Leading Lawyers has a unique and rigorous selection process. To become a Leading Lawyer, one must be recommended by their fellow lawyers in their respective field of law. Lawyers are asked to whom they would recommend a friend or family member if they themselves could not be of help with a legal issue. Leading Lawyers does not allow participants to recommend anyone at their law firm. This ensures that the selection process focuses not only on case outcomes, but on the experience, reputation, and quality of service that a lawyer demonstrates. During the selection process, lawyers often end up recommending their direct competitors.
