A formidable and knowledgeable defense attorney

Our company retained Mr. Powell to defend us in a complex product liability lawsuit. With over two decades of experience, his deep knowledge of Illinois law and the nuances of defense litigation was immediately apparent. His recognition by Best Lawyers in this specific field is well-earned. He crafted a meticulous, fact-driven defense strategy that ultimately led to a very favorable settlement, protecting our business interests completely. His analysis was sharp and his courtroom presence is commanding. While his expertise is top-tier, communication from his support staff during the initial discovery phase could occasionally be a day slower than we'd have liked. Overall, we felt exceptionally well-represented by a true expert in Edwardsville.
