Edward R. Moor is a distinguished trial lawyer at Moor Law Office, P.C., located in Chicago, Illinois. He brings over 30 years of diverse legal experience to the vibrant city of Chicago. He represents clients with matters encompassing areas like product liability, personal injury, criminal defense, business fraud, class actions and civil rights, which has earned him a formidable reputation in the courtroom.
Mr. Moor’s path to law is truly inspiring.

This defining moment led him to Indiana University School of Law, Bloomington, where he graduated with honors while working as a mechanic to support his education.
In 2013, Mr. Moor established his own law firm, dedicating his practice to advocating for individuals facing injustices. Whether tackling professional malpractice, defending the wrongfully accused or supporting whistleblowers, he is committed to the pursuit of justice. His firm often engages in co-counsel arrangements, reflecting his collaborative approach to law.
