Marija Umicevic

Meet Marija

It is exceptionally remarkable to be able to speak up and defend the rights of those who are physically, financially, and emotionally harmed by careless acts of another. In an unfortunate split second, these people face the toughest moments of their lives. What is even worse is that insurance companies take advantage of their vulnerability and unfamiliarity with the legal system and procedures.

Marija Umicevic’s goal is to put a stop to that by providing proper legal representation and by fighting for the redress they deserve. She wants her clients to know that she is here to make a difference in their lives. She puts justice above everything else and ensures that innocent people get the compensation that the law entitles them to.

Marija currently practices in the circuit courts of Kane, Lake, and Cook County.
