Partner Shawn Collins has been recognized again by “Best Lawyers” for his work representing plaintiffs in environmental litigation, mass torts and class actions, and personal injury. “I am honored to be included among the country’s most accomplished lawyers and especially grateful to be recognized for my work fighting for the victims of toxic contamination,” Collins said.

Partner Ed Manzke has been honored for his efforts on behalf of personal injury clients. “It is gratifying to be recognized by ‘Best Lawyers’ for the important work we do on behalf of our injured clients,” Manzke said.

Partner John Risvold has also been selected for his work fighting for personal injury clients. “I’m proud to be included in ‘Best Lawyers in America.’ Being honored by this organization is especially meaningful because the recognition is based on peer reviews.”

Associate attorney Margaret Galka has been recognized for the first time in the “Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch” category for her work on behalf of mass tort and class action plaintiffs. And attorney John Sopuch has been selected as a “Best Lawyer” for his commercial litigation skills.

The firm is honored that Best Lawyers has chosen to recognize five of our attorneys by including them on this year’s Best Lawyers list. The Collins Law Firm is a premier environmental, personal injury, and commercial litigation firm located in Naperville.
