About
Simmons Hanly Conroy is a national plaintiffs’ law firm that focuses on large scale, high stakes litigation for individuals, families and communities harmed by corporate wrongdoing. Headquartered in Alton, Illinois, with additional offices in major cities such as New York, Boston and Los Angeles, the firm has built a reputation as one of the leading mesothelioma and mass tort practices in the United States. Since its founding in 1999, it has recovered many billions of dollars in verdicts and settlements on behalf of clients, with a particular emphasis on people whose lives have been devastated by asbestos exposure and other toxic substances.
The site explains that Simmons Hanly Conroy’s work is organized around several national practice areas. Mesothelioma and asbestos litigation is the historical core of the firm, with trial teams that have secured some of the largest asbestos verdicts in the country. Alongside that, the firm maintains major practices in dangerous drugs and medical devices, opioid litigation, environmental contamination, sexual abuse cases, complex personal injury and consumer class actions. Visitors can browse a “Cases We Handle” section that breaks these areas into more specific types of claims, each with plain language explanations of how people are typically harmed, what legal options may exist and what kinds of compensation may be available.
A recurring theme throughout the website is giving ordinary people a powerful voice against very large corporate defendants. The firm emphasizes its staff of hundreds of attorneys, nurses, investigators and support professionals, its leadership roles in multidistrict litigations and national settlements, and its willingness to invest heavily in each case on a contingency fee basis so clients pay nothing upfront. Verdicts and settlements pages highlight headline results in asbestos, sexual abuse and other complex cases, while also reminding visitors that each case is unique and past results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
The site also showcases a strong commitment to community and public health. Simmons Hanly Conroy highlights substantial donations to cancer research and mesothelioma advocacy organizations, sponsorship of awareness events and pro bono projects such as expungement clinics. News and blog sections provide updates on ongoing litigation, legal developments and the firm’s charitable work. Clear contact information, free case review forms and a 24/7 phone line make it easy for potential clients and co-counsel to reach out. Overall, the website presents Simmons Hanly Conroy as a large, nationwide plaintiffs’ firm that combines deep resources and trial experience with a client centered mission to stand up to corporate misconduct.
