Education: The John Marshall Law School

Jurisdictions: Illinois - Admitted in 1986 (23 years), U.S. District Court, Northern District of Illinois - Admitted in 1986 (23 years), U.S. Supreme Court - Admitted in 1986 (23 years)

Susan L. Novosad is a partner at Levin & Perconti and has practiced law since 1985. Susan concentrates primarily in the areas of nursing home litigation, medical malpractice, automobile and premises liability matters. Susan is a highly experienced trial attorney, having been counsel in numerous complex medical malpractice cases. Her most noted achievement in this arena is a $6.7 million verdict in a birth-related medical malpractice case. Most recently she obtained a $995,000 verdict for a 67-year-old single assisted living resident who choked and died after being given food prohibited by his diet. Susan also achieved a $1,000,000 settlement on behalf of her client in a nursing home case in Lake County, Illinois. The settlement resulted from a case against a Lake County owned home who failed to take proper fall precautions with regard to Susan’s client. This failure resulted in numerous falls and Susan’s client sustained a brain injury and hip and elbow fractures ultimately contributing to the death of the resident. This settlement represents the highest settlement in a Lake County nursing home case

Susan is renowned as a highly skilled negotiator with an exceptional ability to successfully bring opposing parties to resolutions and end disputes. These skills were utilized recently to achieve a $1.5 million resolution for an 87-year-old nursing home resident who suffered burns to her buttocks after being placed in a sitz bath; a $500,000 resolution in a case involving a woman who lived in two different nursing homes and developed multiple pressure sores complicated by numerous hospitalizations, and a $510,000 resolution in a premises liability case against a restaurant where the 88-year-old plaintiff fell down a flight of stairs claiming they were too close to the waiting area resulting in a hip and foot fracture. This ability to resolve cases has earned her the enduring respect of her peers on both sides of the courtroom as well as that of her partners and associates here at Levin & Perconti.

Susan prides herself on the comprehensive manner in which she addresses the needs of her client’s and their cases. She grew up in Evanston, Illinois, earned her J.D. Cum Laude from The John Marshall Law School in Chicago in 1986, and has been practicing for the benefit of her clients ever since. Levin & Perconti is extremely proud of Susan's distinguished accomplishments and commitment to her profession and her clients.

Education: John Marshall Law School

Jurisdictions: Illinois

As a personal injury attorney, Steven J. Malman has dedicated his entire legal career to protecting the rights of injured persons and helping them obtain the largest financial recovery possible for their injuries. That is why he founded the Law Offices of Steven J. Malman and Associates, P.C. in Chicago, Illinois in 1994.

He is committed to fighting for the rights of injured victims and holding liable the negligent parties accountable for their actions. He does this by offering his personal injury and workers' compensation clients the best legal representation available and aggressively pursuing their claim to obtain the best result possible for each case. Steven established his law firm with these objectives in mind and has built a legal team and staff that have the tools, experience, talent, dedication, and resources to get the job done right.

Steven believes that all injured persons have a right to quality legal representation—regardless of whether they have the funds to pay for this kind of service. This is why he is such a big advocate of the contingency fee system. You will only pay for his services if he obtains a collection for you, with all payments coming from your collection amount and never from your own pocket. He believes that every person who is injured because of another party's negligence has a right to financial compensation so that he or she can recover from their injuries, pay their medical bills, and get on with their lives.

Steven considers personal injury law to be his true calling and the only career he has ever wanted to pursue. While working for a medium-sized Chicago firm after graduating from law school, he amassed so many personal injury clients that wanted his representation and protection that he founded the Law Offices of Steven J. Malman & Associates, P.C. so he could provide them with the kind of legal representation and client service that they deserved and needed. Read some of his law firm's success stories to see how Steven continues to fulfill these goals and objectives for his personal injury and workers' compensation clients.

He is licensed to practice in Illinois at both the state and federal levels and is a member of the Illinois Trial Lawyers Association, the Chicago Bar Association, the American Bar Association, and the American Trial Association.

Steven has represented over 5,000 injury clients in every kind of personal injury and workers' compensation cases that there is, including truck accidents, police brutality/civil rights violation cases, car accidents, wrongful death cases, nursing home neglect and abuse cases, dog bite accidents, construction accidents, medical malpractice claims, slip and fall accidents, cerebral palsy injuries, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, train accidents, and products liability cases.

His clients come from all over Illinois, including Chicago, Oak Park, Harvey, Maywood, Blue Island, Bellwood, Berwyn, Homewood, Cicero, Oak Lawn, Riverside, South Holland, Westchester, Hazel Crest, Chicago Heights, Sauk Village, Olympia Fields, Matteson, Dolton, and Lansing in Cook County. He also represents clients in Lake County, Will County, and DuPage County.

Steven genuinely loves his job. When he isn't too busy negotiating a settlement for one of his clients or strategizing with his legal team on how to successfully win an injury lawsuit in court, he is constantly thinking of ways he can make the world a better place through personal injury law. You can find out more about what Attorney Steven J. Malman is up to by reading his legal blog, which he updates regularly.

Married with two daughters, Steven spends most of his free time with his family. He is also an avid golfer.

He is well known for his ability to successfully settle difficult cases due to his organizational skills and extremely high level of case preparation.

Mr. Orzoff takes pride in the personal service that he offers to all clients. At the initial meeting, he offers the client a complete explanation of their legal rights and he proposes a case plan which is designed to eventually bring the case to a successful conclusion.

Mr. Orzoff was born in Chicago, Illinois in 1943 and has lived in the Chicagoland area all of his life. He graduated with a Juris Doctor degree from the DePaul University College of Law in February of 1966. In May of 1966 the Supreme Court of the State of Illinois licensed him to practice as an Attorney and Counselor of Law before all of the courts in the state. At that time he was also licensed to practice before the United States District Courts for both the Northern and Southern Districts of the State of Illinois.

He began his legal career as a trial attorney for a large national insurance company and, at that time, he also began to plant the seeds for what is now the well-recognized Orzoff Law Offices. The impressive growth of his firm can be attributed to a network of referrals from satisfied clients and other attorneys.

He is a member of the American Trial Lawyers Association, the Illinois Workers' Compensation Lawyers Association and the Illinois State Bar Association. In 1999 he was admitted to practice as an Attorney and Counselor of Law before the Supreme Court of the United States of America.
