Partners, Dennis Berg and Faustin Pipal, have been practicing law together since 1989. The Pipal & Berg philosophy can be summed up in three words: Excellence, Responsiveness, and Professionalism. The firm has attained the highest rating (“AV”) for legal ability and integrity by the Martindale-Hubbell Directory, a source used by attorneys seeking information about the qualifications of other attorneys.

The firm is proud of its record both in and out of the court room. All the firm attorneys have significant experience trying jury cases, bench trials, and administrative hearings. The firm also is active in the community, Mr. Pipal having risen to leadership positions in the bar and in the world of public interest law, and Mr. Berg maintaining an active role in the charitable community, in particular the World Craniofacial Foundation.

Our firm’s attorneys are available to handle civil litigation, both tort and commercial law, throughout northern Illinois. All the firm’s counsel are licensed to practice in the Supreme and all State Courts in Illinois, and in the Supreme Court and Federal Courts of the U.S. With the authority of the Courts, and in association with local counsel, we have been involved in litigation in many other States around the country.

The firm takes great pride in our ability to render high quality legal services with a very personal touch. Each attorney has had significant litigation experience, from the pre-suit stage through trial and appeal. Just as importantly, all the firm’s lawyers are committed to providing timely responses to any questions, concerns or recommendations from our clients. The firm’s attorneys also have extensive experience in alternative dispute resolution, including mediation and arbitration.
