Lathrop Gage Partners Bill Beck and Mike Abrams were recently profiled by Super Lawyers for their success in securing compensation for individuals who have been wrongfully convicted, individuals who have often spent decades in prison for crimes they did not commit. Lathrop Gage’s Civil Rights Insurance Recovery Practice group leads the nation in securing insurance proceeds for wrongfully convicted persons, recovering over $150 million for wrongfully convicted individuals and their families since 2004. Additionally, the firm has partnered with the Midwest Innocence Project to help exonerate individuals who are currently in prison for crimes they did not commit and helped to facilitate the recent release of Laquanda “Faye” Jacobs, who spent 26 years in prison after being wrongfully convicted of capital murder at the age of 16.
