Once again, Ankin Law is bolstering its ability to help injured workers in Chicagoland with another addition to our lawyer roster.
Attorney Aaron Walner has joined the firm in 2026 and has already begun working for clients in our workers’ compensation department.
A native of Highland Park, Illinois, Aaron attended Boston University in political science and history. With a number of people in his family already in the legal profession, he decided to become a lawyer, earning his Juris Doctor from UIC Law.
Using an analytical approach to the law, Walner specialized in litigation for the majority of his legal career. He’ll add workers’ compensation to his extensive legal resume at Ankin Law – the largest filer of workers’ compensation cases in the State of Illinois.
It’s an opportunity that Walner is excited to have as he starts a new chapter of his legal career.
“It means a lot to me to help workers who are injured on the job because they need representation. They need to be heard,” said Walner. “They need their day in court.”
You can learn more about Aaron in his introduction video to the firm.
