OUR VISION

OUR STORY
Jim Barnes began his career in insurance - including a two year stint in England at Lloyd's of London. Later, Mr. Barnes finished law school in London and then went to work for a large New York law firm. Several years after being transferred to Chicago, Mr. Barnes founded Barnes, P.C.  Since 1997, the firm has been dedicated to providing outstanding service to its clients - both as a Plaintiff and as a Defendant. The firm's specialty is the area of workers' compensation insurance premiums and the firm has obtained repeated and significant judgments and settlements over the years.
