King & Jones - Chicago, Illinois

I engaged King Jones to help me force a buyout agreement on a laundry company lease that was very one-sided in favor of the laundry company. Jeff and Paul made me feel validated in my complaint and kept my work load (and stress) light as they handled all communications with the other party from the point of engagement forward. After a couple months of pushing, Jeff and Paul got the company to respond and we reached a reasonable settlement amount. And their retainer and fees were reasonable and in line with their initial guidance.

I had a legal issue with the business that I manage and Paul King of King & Jones was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the initial phone consultation, Paul was very helpful explaining all my options and the process going forward. While working with them, they were in constant contact all the steps during the way. The final outcome was favorable and I owe it to their expertise in legal business law. Thank you!

In more than 40 years of practicing law, Peter King is one of the very finest lawyers and people who I have come across in the profession. Peter and his firm were opposing counsel in a high stakes breach of fiduciary duty case that extended over several years, involved extensive discovery, two jury trials, a trip to the appellate court, and ultimately a hard-fought settlement. Peter's performance in representing his clients was exemplary throughout, consistently demonstrating expertise in strategy, preparation, and advocacy, as well as legal acumen that one finds only in the most skilled attorneys. While seeking to exact every advantage for his clients, Peter at the same time always conducted himself in his dealings with opposing counsel with professionalism, integrity, and class. Other attorneys at King & Jones also performed at a very high level and exhibited similar values. The entire operation is first rate and I highly recommend the firm.

In my experience over decades as a trial lawyer at Kirkland & Ellis, LLP, Peter King is the most fearsome adversary as well as the best co-counsel I have ever encountered.
I first met Peter as an adversary in a hard-fought breach of contract/theft of intellectual property case. He was relentless and effective, while being thoroughly professional and ethical. After the matter was resolved (with a favorable result for his client), I advised my clients to consider hiring Peter (in part to avoid having him as an adversary).
In subsequent years, I had the opportunity to team up with Peter as co-counsel in both jury trial and arbitration contexts, with amounts at issue ranging up to a billion dollars and more. I found him always to be tenacious, insightful, creative and effective. In all respects, a great trial partner.
I have referred a number of cases to Peter, including a tough multi-million dollar breach of partnership and fiduciary duty case for a close family member. He has always delivered a terrific result. Everyone I have sent to him for representation has told me how he really delivered great results for them—effectively and efficiently.
Peter King is simply a terrific lawyer—the best.

Peter and Bill are exceptional lawyers. They are very hardworking, smart and tenacious, always focusing on achieving the best possible result for their clients. We have co-counseled complex cases involving aviation mid-air collisions, business disputes, and matters involving insurance bad faith. In each instance Peter and Bill exhibited superior lawyering that led to outstanding victories for our clients. You will not find better lawyers than King and Jones.

Peter King is an exceptional attorney. He represented us on a property dispute case and I found him to be insightful with a clear grasp of the issues. He was well prepared, meticulously organized, and accessible throughout the process. His strategies and thoughtful litigation resulted in a favorable ruling on my case. I will unhesitatingly choose him for any future legal matters.

I am a Florida Attorney and have had the privilege of litigating with Peter King both as an opposing party and as co-counsel. Peter is one of the finest civil litigators I have encountered in 40 years of practicing law. His preparation is meticulous, and his courtroom presentation is articulate, persuasive, and effective. Peter always protects his client’s best interest by weighing risk, benefit, and the ever-increasing costs and expense of civil litigation. If I ever need personal legal representation Peter would be my first choice.
