Brian D. Hahn received his Juris Doctorate degree from Valparaiso University School of Law in 2001 and his Bachelor of Science degree in Business from Indiana University in 1998.  Brian began his legal career at a boutique Chicago defense firm specializing in defending premises owners, product manufacturers, and transportation companies in a wide range of matters from general negligence to mass toxic tort liability claims.  During this time, Brian was part of the trial team that obtained a defense verdict following trial in Indiana on a corporate tenant’s business disruption claim from alleged environmental contamination from the activities from an adjoining tenant’s operation.  Additionally, Brian was able to obtain early dismissal of a wrongful death claim filed in Illinois against a railroad company that was ultimately upheld by the Illinois Court of Appeals.

In the following years, Brian has represented and worked for several insurance companies and their policyholders in a variety of matters including products liability, premises liability, commercial transportation defense, construction liability, and insurance coverage disputes.  Brian’s legal experience encompasses all levels of trial practice in the federal and state courts of Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin.   In addition, Brian has managed and directed outside counsel throughout the country and has counseled insurance adjusters regarding issues relative to adjusting bodily injury and insurance coverage claims in order to identify, mitigate and prevent litigation risk and avoid bad faith or extra-contractual judgments.

The legal advocacy, research, writing and negotiating skills developed over the course of Brian’s professional career led to many favorable outcomes for those he represented.  Brian’s goal is to provide his clients with the necessary expertise to resolve their legal issues promptly, practically, and cost-effectively.  Currently, Brian is admitted to practice law in the state courts of Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin and the federal courts for the Northern District of Illinois and the Northern and Southern District Courts of Indiana.
