Martay Law Office

Martay Law Office At Martay Law Office, our lawyers always put your legal, health & financial needs first. Founded by attorney William H. Martay and Stephen R.

Martay Law Office is a law firm that focuses on Workers' Compensation, Social Security Disability and Personal Injury. Martay, the firm now includes sons David W. Martay, who are the third generation of the family to practice law. Together, we represent more than 70 years of legal experience and a continuation of a long family tradition of service to the greater Chicago and Illinois community in a

variety of capacities. At Martay Law Office, we have represented thousands of workers in the Chicago metro area and across the entire state of Illinois when they needed help getting their Workers' Compensation benefits or Social Security benefits. We have also handled Personal Injury claims for countless clients as well. Our reputation is built on the satisfaction of our many successes. It is common for claims to settle before going to court, but we prepare each claim as if we will go to trial. We know that our clients and their families depend on us to get results. While we are lawyers who tenaciously fight for your rights each day, we also take the time to speak with you about your case, particularly when there are new developments. We also understand that you are proud of the work you do. You may even hesitate to file a claim for an injury even if you have the right to do so. You owe it to yourself and your loved ones to receive the compensation that you are entitled to. Our offices are located in downtown Chicago, but we represent clients throughout the state.

Helpful Tip: Not all injuries show up on an X-ray. Soft tissue damage, concussions, and repetitive strain can be just as debilitating as a broken bone. If you feel "off" after an accident or a long week of repetitive work, see a doctor and document your symptoms immediately. Our family legacy of advocacy is built on protecting workers with all types of injuries.
