Mr. Hronek concentrates his practice in medical malpractice and other personal injury litigation including birth injuries, catastrophic injuries, and wrongful death cases.  Mr. Hronek has tried numerous personal injury and wrongful death cases throughout Illinois, successfully representing both individuals and businesses before State and Federal Courts.

Although initially growing up in the Northern Suburbs of Chicago, Mr. Hronek attended high school and college in Texas, receiving his bachelor’s degree in Philosophy and Political Science from Texas Tech University in 1997.  Wanting to get back to his Chicago roots, Mr. Hronek returned to Chicago, where he received his Juris Doctorate Degree from Chicago-Kent College of Law in 2000.

After receiving his law degree, Mr. Hronek began his career as an Assistant State’s Attorney with the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office.  As a prosecutor, Mr. Hronek was primarily assigned to the Narcotics Prosecutions Bureau, where he tried hundreds of bench and jury trials related to narcotics trafficking and other violent felonies throughout Cook County.  Prior to joining Jeffrey M. Goldberg Law Offices in 2011, Mr. Hronek also worked for the Chicago firm Cunningham, Meyer & Vedrine, where he represented physicians and hospitals in complex medical malpractice actions.

Case Results

An expectant mother presented at her hospital in Chicago for the delivery of her first child. Her physician was not present and the hospital's "house doctor", who had not been formally trained in obstetrics, was managing the labor with attending nurses. By the time the personal physician arrived the fetus had suffered a significant lack of oxygen and was delivered in a very depressed state. The baby developed cerebral palsy. On the eve of trial, the hospital and other defendants offered a global settlement with a present cash value in excess of $13,000,000.00 including some portions in cash and future payments that will support the child for life.
