About Lawrence
Lawrence Falbe earned a B.A. from Augustana College before taking his law degree at DePaul University College of Law. He moved from the classroom into practice ready to tackle courtroom work. His academic path combined a liberal arts foundation with the practical training of a Chicago-area law school.
He began his career in private practice and spent time at Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP. In 2015 he joined Miller Canfield. Over the years he has handled matters that required appearances in both state and federal forums. Colleagues have described his court work as steady and straightforward.
Falbe is admitted to practice in Illinois and Wisconsin and holds admissions to several federal courts. Those listings include the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Trial Bar, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Illinois, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, and the U.S. Supreme Court. He is also admitted before the Illinois Supreme Court. The range of admissions allows him to file and defend cases across multiple trial and appellate courts.
At Miller Canfield he has worked on matters that proceed in trial courts and, when required, on appeal. Being on the Northern District of Illinois Trial Bar enables him to try cases in that federal court, and his admissions permit him to follow a matter through the appellate process when necessary. His practice reflects the procedural demands of litigation: motion practice, discovery disputes, and courtroom presentations.
He maintains professional memberships tied to the jurisdictions where he practices. He is based in the Miller Canfield office and continues to take on cases that involve contested litigation. He currently concentrates his practice on litigation matters in state and federal courts.
