About Lee J.
Lee J. Vasilatos earned his law degree from The John Marshall Law School in 1994. He entered practice following graduation and has spent his career representing people who have suffered injuries and workplace harms. His legal training at John Marshall provided a foundation for courtroom work and client representation.
Early in his career Vasilatos built a practice that includes both trial litigation and administrative hearings. He has handled matters that progress through workers' compensation tribunals and civil courts. Over time he developed routines for preparing cases, assembling medical evidence and advocating at hearings and trials.
Vasilatos has been active in professional circles related to his work. He joined the Workers Compensation Lawyers Association in 2001 and has maintained that membership since. He became a member of the Illinois Trial Lawyers Association in 2012 and continues that affiliation. These memberships have kept him connected to developments in trial practice and workers' compensation law.
His casework covers personal injury and workplace injury matters. He represents clients in contested hearings and in court when cases require formal litigation. That often means taking depositions, arguing motions, working with medical experts and negotiating settlements when appropriate. He represents individuals rather than insurance companies, and his practice emphasizes procedural readiness and practical case management.
Vasilatos practices under the name Vasilatos Injury Law. He maintains a Flossmoor office and an Evanston office that operates by appointment. Clients also visit his firm office for consultations and case work. He balances court appearances with administrative proceedings and client meetings.
Over several decades of practice Vasilatos has focused on the mechanics of injury and workers' compensation cases rather than on publicity. He has stayed involved in professional associations and continued to handle hearings and trials as needed. He currently practices at Vasilatos Injury Law, where he handles personal injury and workers' compensation matters.
