About Cowan & Hilgeman

Our founder, Jack Hilgeman , concentrates his practice on personal injury, wrongful death, and medical malpractice, and he has recovered millions of dollars for the people he represents. Michael Mahon is a trial attorney who has taken more than fifteen cases to verdict. Before joining Cowan & Hilgeman, he defended insurance companies and health care providers, so he knows how the other side prepares a case and where it looks for weaknesses. Many of those matters involved serious claims against hospitals and large corporations. That perspective shapes how we build every malpractice claim. Our attorneys' recognition includes an AV Preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell and selection to The National Trial Lawyers Top 40 Under 40.

    I reached out with some concerns about potential snow and ice injuries on our business property, and I’m so glad I did. My questions were answered clearly and thoroughly, which really put my mind at ease. I also appreciated how welcoming they were to any follow-up questions—it never felt like I was being a bother. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out again for professional guidance in the future.

    I was looking for a lawyer and after so very rude and robotic law firms, I spoke with Jack about my case. He was very professional and personable and actually cared about my situation. I highly recommend his firm!
