Andrew Lamis is a Chicago attorney with more than thirty years of experience litigating high-stakes cases for both plaintiffs and defendants.  Mr. Lamis litigates multimillion dollar actions that feature uniquely challenging facts, require intensive investigative preparation, and place a premium on the use of creativity and skill to achieve successful resolutions at the earliest stage.

In recent years he has successfully represented physicians facing false charges of fraud and racketeering in insurance company strike suits that put at issue hundreds of cases of patient care, he has prosecuted a whistleblower action for a professor of medicine who refused to abide widespread fraudulent Medicare and Medicaid billing at his university hospital, and he has secured recovery for a young man rendered a complete quadriplegic by a third party’s criminal attack that occurred because a premises owner and its security firm were negligent in failing to protect against reasonably foreseeable shooting assaults.

In the medical malpractice suits he litigates for plaintiffs, in the medical provider fraud cases he handles for defendant physicians and clinics, and in significant personal injury cases where physician testimony as to the nature and scope of the plaintiff’s damages is critical, Mr. Lamis’ litigation work often involves complex issues in medicine.  Mr. Lamis’ background is broad and includes litigating wrongful death actions, products liability suits, aviation accident cases, mass torts, securities class actions, commercial litigations, insurance coverage disputes, and probate court actions involving the theft of funds from elderly persons through the exercise of undue influence.

Mr. Lamis has tried cases around the country including in Illinois, New York and California.  He is a seasoned litigator who combines aggressiveness with judiciousness, and consistently emphasizes resolving conflicts for his clients in an efficient and cost-effective manner.
