Over 30 Years of Experience Working for Injury Victims
Attorney John J. Hopkins learned the value of hard work early in life and the interests that working men and women have in the St. Louis Metro East area. As the son and grandson of ironworkers, Mr. Hopkins was taught the value of hard work at an early age. Working out of Ironworkers Local 392 in East St. Louis, Illinois, he financed his college and law school by working in the trade. The lessons learned on the job site have guided him well through his 31 years of practice, representing the interests of working men and women throughout the Metro East area.
Through more than three decades of legal practice, our firm has focused on representing people in the Metro East who need an advocate on their side. We have built a strong track record of success in dealing with personal injury, medical malpractice and employment law issues.
We know that by obtaining a financial settlement, victims and their families will be provided with a sense of justice, accountability and closure.

Some attorneys tell you that they are always aggressive and push to handle cases at trial. While every case taken is prepared for trial court, we also know that the cost and stress of a courtroom is not always in a client's best interest. Our lawyers focus on achieving positive solutions that are best for our clients and their unique circumstances.
