Traub Lieberman Straus & Shrewsberry, LLP Expands Beyond the East Coast, Opening Midwest Office in Chicago

July 21, 2008

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - TRAUB LIEBERMAN STRAUS & SHREWSBERRY LLP is pleased to announce that it has opened its newest location in Chicago, Illinois.

The new Traub Lieberman Chicago is the firm's fourth location, joining offices in New York, New Jersey, and Florida.

"Our firm has experienced tremendous growth over the last few years," noted Richard K. Traub, a Founding Partner of Traub Lieberman Straus & Shrewsberry, LLP, "and our expansion into the Windy City is a reflection of that growth. Having a location in the Chicagoland area will help us reach out to new clients, while allowing us to better serve our existing insurance and corporate clientele."

The firm's Chicago location opened its doors with two resident partners, Michael S. Knippen and Mark F. Wolfe, who both have extensive trial experience in casualty and commercial litigation, products liability, professional liability, and insurance coverage. Both natives of the Chicago area, Mr. Knippen and Mr. Wolfe will lead the office located at 303 West Madison Street, Suite 1200, right in the heart of downtown Chicago.

"We have big plans for our new Chicago location," added Traub. Traub Lieberman Chicago is already hiring, and plans to have a full complement of attorneys working in the Chicago office by the end of the year.
