Knight Hoppe Kurnik & Knight, LTD.

The pedigree of Knight, Hoppe, Kurnik & Knight, Ltd. as a public entity and commercial lines insurance defense firm dates back to the early '70's when our firm was formed. From our inception, the firm was retained by commercial lines carriers and public entity insurers. We defend public entities of all sizes and levels of local government in civil rights litigation and tort damages suits. Construction negligence, products, and premises liability suits represent the bulk of our commercial claims. Our partners and associates handle the cases from the initial pleading through trial and the appellate courts because it is our philosophy that the same attorney should be able to prepare the case for both trial and any possible appeal to provide the best possible defense for our clients. We remain committed to providing a vigorous but practical and economic defense for both of our clients, insurer and insured.

In addition to providing our clients with the highest quality legal counsel, our firm's partners routinely present in our practice areas to various clients, and prospective clients, throughout Illinois and Indiana. These presentations are designed not only to assist insureds should they become involved in a lawsuit, but to educate and train insurers and insureds alike in managing risk and avoiding potential claims in the future.

Our practice is throughout the state of Indiana and Illinois in both state and federal courts. With offices in Rosemont from O'Hare airport, and in Merrillville, our locations provide for immediate access to the interstates and we routinely serve our clients in all counties across the states in both state and federal court systems. In addition, our leading technology allows us to serve and represent clients, while also providing a cost savings benefit.
