After graduating from DePaul University’s College of Law and passing the bar, Ryan P. Theriault immediately began practice as a trial attorney to pursue his passion to help those that have been harmed by others, and to provide them with a better grasp of the law along the way.. “I don’t want to meet with a client and tell them to ‘sign this and sign this.’ I want them to understand the litigation, what they’re signing, why they’re doing it, and to be an active part of the legal process. I want them to be comfortable leaving our office knowing they received great legal direction and representation.”. Ryan is a life-long resident of the Chicago and Fox Valley areas, and uses that approach when representing families harmed by the negligence of others.. “You have to put yourself in their shoes to truly understand their pain and suffering,” Theriault explains. “If someone has been injured on the job and their employer or the insurance company has taken away their weekly paycheck, the only means of supporting their family, they throw themselves completely in your lap. At that point, we are prepared to fight on their behalf.”. Prior to practicing law, Ryan worked for a large Chicago-area police department. As a result, Ryan has a special interest in representing public safety officers who have been injured as a result of their dedicated service to others.. When not devoting his time and efforts to his clients, Ryan offers his expertise to Prairie State Legal Services on a pro bono basis, has volunteered for the Kane County Bar Association’s “Ask A Lawyer” phone bank service and served as a judge for local mock trial competitions. He has presented at Continuing Legal Education seminars and has been published on the topic of workers compensation issues.. In 2012, Ryan was profiled by his alma mater, DePaul University, in “Success Stories from Alumni under 40.”. Ryan is licensed to practice in the State of Illinois and in Illinois’ Northern District of the U.S. District Court. He is a proud member of the Illinois Trial Lawyers Association, American Association for Justice, Illinois State Bar Association, and the Kane County Bar Association.. Ryan is an elected member of the Illinois State Bar Association’s Assembly, representing Illinois’ 16th Judicial Circuit. Founded in 1877, the Illinois State Bar Association is the premier legal association in the State of Illinois. As a voluntary organization of more than 30,000 members, the Association's primary focus is to assist Illinois lawyers in the practice of law and to promote improvements in the administration of justice.. Outside of the office, Ryan is a supporter of Special Olympics Illinois, Operation Support our Troops, Fox Valley Volunteer Hospice, and other charitable organizations.

Firm: Stanczak Law Offices Inc.

1738 Washington St. , Waukegan , Illinois 60085

Practice Areas: Workers Compensation

I am in my 19th year of the practice of law. I spent my first two years of my career as a prosecutor with the Lake County State’s Attorneys Office. For the last 17 years I have almost exclusively practiced in the area of workers compensation. I do also handle criminal cases for clients in need.. I began my workers compensation career defending Employers and Insurance companies against such claims. However, for the past 4 years, I have “put on the white hat” and devoted all of my efforts to representing the Rights of Injured Workers. My time defending workers compensation claims and working with the insurance companies has given me invaluable insight into the “tricks and traps” the insurance companies perpetrate on the injured worker. Insurance companies have highly qualified attorneys representing their interests, and having been one I know how to best defeat them. One of my main goals is to sufficiently educate my clients so that they understand all aspects of their case. Because only an informed client can truly decide what is the best decision for them given all the circumstances of their case.. My prosecutorial experience has given me an excellent investigative sense and an aggressive courtroom style. I not only have the experience to aggressively handle cases, but also have the ability to recognize what is in the best interest of each client and assertively manage case to meet it.. I have extensive experience before the Illinois Workers Compensation Commission and have become a respected member of this exclusive legal community. I have been previously selected by my peers as a “Rising Star” within the Top 2.5 percent of lawyers concentrating in the area of workers compensation law. I have been a long time member of the Illinois Workers Compensation Lawyers Association.. I was born in Waukegan, Illinois in 1971 and grew up in Wadsworth, Illinois where I attended St. Patrick’s grade school. I went on to high school and graduated from Carmel High School in Mundelein, Illinois. In 1990, I went off to Michigan State University where I received a Bachelor of Arts degree with a double major in Psychology and Pre-Law. I received my Juris Doctorate from DePaul University College of Law in 1998.  I was admitted to the practice of law in the State of Illinois in 1998 and was admitted to practice in the State of Florida in 1999.
