Our Team

Chad represents clients in complex cases.

Chad is primarily a litigator and in the past has been on the litigation team for Juul addictions and lung injuries, Actos, Pradaxa, Coldwater Creek (Radiation Exposure), Hyland’s Teething Tablets and numerous personal injury cases against major corporations.

He was selected by Judge Rosenstengel, Southern District of Illinois, to serve on the Paraquat Plaintiffs’ Executive Committee in MDL 3004.

He is also actively litigating claims that infant formula manufacturers Abbott and Mead are causing a catastrophic gastrointestinal disease (Necrotizing Enterocolitis) in premature infants.

He specializes in complex nationwide cases and during litigation often works on corporate discovery, obtaining and reviewing documents, case strategy, questioning of witnesses, experts, and trial strategy.

Chad was the first law clerk hired by TorHoerman Law. He left to take an externship (aka – working while in school for free) with the Office of General Counsel for Health and Human Services (HHS).

He worked on rule making for the Affordable Care Act and assisted HHS with issues related to False Claims Act cases.

After finishing his externship with HHS Chad returned to TorHoerman Law and has spent his entire career here.

When people, or their family members, are injured Chad takes pride in being their voice in depositions and the courtroom and holding those responsible accountable for their actions and decisions.
