FAQ — Salvi, Schostok & Pritchard P.C.

How much does Salvi charge?
Pure contingency. All costs (often $100K+) advanced by the firm. No fee unless they win. Free consultation.
Why $3.5 billion?
Forty years of trying serious cases. They're not a settlement mill — insurance companies know they'll go to verdict.
How long do birth injury cases take?
Typically 2–4 years. Lifetime damages must be calculated by life-care planners and economists. The time builds a complete case.
Illinois has a different statute of limitations for birth injury?
Yes — Illinois lets families file until the child's 22nd birthday for birth-injury claims. Don't wait — investigation takes time.
Will my child have to testify?
Almost never. Cases turn on medical records and expert testimony, not on the child.
