Jacob to His Ankin Law Car Accident Attorney: ‘You Crushed’ It

When Jacob F. met his attorney at the end of his auto accident case with Ankin Law, he had only one thing to say.

“You crushed it,” said this Chicagoan to Attorney Maria Merman.

He said that after having a great experience with the lawyer after being involved in a four-car accident that left him with a concussion and spinal injuries in August 2025. 

Recommended by his boss, who knows Attorney Howard Ankin, and familiar with the firm through advertising, Jacob called to get help with his case. 

Maria, along with legal assistant Adrianna Carrillo, got to work on getting him the needed medical treatment after his injuries.

They got that to him quickly and settled his case in under a year. 

“I just greatly appreciate the help she provided,” said Jacob. “If I didn’t know what to do, she knew what to do. So I just appreciate having that expert resource in my corner guiding me along the way.”

This another example of Ankin Law coming through for someone who has been injured in a crash in Chicagoland. The firm has developed an expertise in that area of practice over the past 29 years, helping thousands of clients.
