Chicago built. Statewide practice.

A legacy of service

Chicago built.

Two examples. A shared standard.

Although Maimonis Law LLC is headquartered in Chicago, its reach extends throughout Illinois. Alexandra Maimonis represents employers, insurance carriers, self-insured organizations, third-party administrators, and municipalities in workers’ compensation defense litigation across the state.

Chicago public schools

Peter A. Maimonis.

Her father devoted his career to Chicago’s Public School System, ultimately serving as vice principal at Alfred Nobel Elementary School in West Humboldt Park. His care for those children extended beyond the school doors. When neighborhood streets were unsafe, he walked frightened students home—offering the reassurance of an adult they could trust.

Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office

Ronald G. Maimonis.

Her uncle, Ronald G. Maimonis, her father’s youngest brother, devoted most of his career to the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office, working to secure justice for children who could not advocate for themselves. A DePaul University graduate in accounting and law, he served as an Assistant Cook County State’s Attorney and as Supervisor of the Juvenile Court for over 20 years. His work also included leadership in the Juvenile Bar Association and contributions to Illinois Continuing Legal Education.

Their examples were personal, but they became professional principles: prepare carefully, protect what matters, respect the process, and stand steady when the stakes are high. Alexandra carries those Chicago-rooted values into a statewide workers’ compensation defense practice for the insurance, employer, and municipal communities.
