Wrongful Death Lawsuit Attorney in Chicago, Illinois

Sophia Delacroix brings a unique combination of clinical nursing training and 19 years of legal experience to wrongful death and medical malpractice cases. Her background as a registered nurse before law school gives her an unmatched ability to read medical records, identify deviations from the nursing standard of care, and cross-examine defense medical experts effectively. Based in Chicago, Sophia has handled over 200 wrongful death cases in Cook County — one of the nation's most plaintiff-favorable jurisdictions — and has secured multiple seven- and eight-figure recoveries for families who lost loved ones to medical negligence and nursing home abuse. Illinois courts have struck down all wrongful death damages caps as unconstitutional, allowing Sophia to pursue full non-economic and punitive recovery for her clients.
