Redo the offerings in relation to benefits and the place would be hands down the best out there in the metro area for the most part.

What were the things that you liked most about this employer?
The management team is really high level, intelligent people, and have a great work ethic that seeps into other workers.

What did you not like about this institution?
The benefits are a bit lacking, and the HR department seems to not pay attention to what needs to be done at all.

Overview

Exciting Opportunities Await at Krislov & Associates, Ltd.

When it comes to finding a law firm that offers exciting opportunities for attorneys and staff, look no further than Krislov & Associates, Ltd. With a rich history of success and a commitment to putting clients first, this firm provides a stimulating and rewarding environment for legal professionals.

Founded in 1983 by Clint Krislov, a seasoned tax lawyer with extensive experience in complex civil and criminal tax matters, Krislov & Associates, Ltd. has established itself as a force to be reckoned with in the legal world. Krislov's initial engagement with retiree participants in the City of Chicago Annuity and Benefit Funds set the stage for the firm's future endeavors.

One of the firm's most notable achievements was uncovering the City of Chicago's conversion of property tax levies, which led to recoveries of nearly $40 million for severely underfunded pension plans. This groundbreaking success also forced major reforms in the City's handling of pension tax levies. Krislov & Associates, Ltd. didn't stop there - they also protected retirees' healthcare benefits through litigation, ensuring their well-being until 2013 when the current settlement expires.

The firm's commitment to taking on the big guys is evident in their pursuit of complex valuation, fiduciary breach, and corporate buyback litigation. In the Prudential-Bache Energy Income Securities Litigation, Krislov & Associates, Ltd. intervened to block an inadequate settlement and exposed kickbacks within Prudential's Direct Investment Group. This led to an auction of properties and recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors who would have otherwise been defrauded.

Building on their success, Krislov & Associates, Ltd. launched the In re Prudential Securities Ltd. Partnerships Securities Litigation, a global civil RICO litigation that produced hundreds of millions of dollars in recoveries for investors in Prudential limited partnerships. These achievements have solidified the firm's reputation as leaders in class action, derivative, and whistleblower cases, fighting for the rights of investors, consumers, employees, and retirees.

What sets Krislov & Associates, Ltd. apart is their selective approach to cases. They prioritize material recoveries for their clients and the class, rather than settling for mere cents on the dollar. This dedication to obtaining full or near-full recovery for the estimated damages of the class showcases their unwavering commitment to putting clients' interests first.

The firm's accomplishments have not gone unnoticed. Krislov & Associates, Ltd. has been favorably mentioned by numerous courts for their work and achievements. They continue to strive to meet and exceed their clients' expectations, ensuring that their legal needs are met with the utmost professionalism and dedication.

Joining Krislov & Associates, Ltd. presents attorneys and staff with a unique opportunity to be part of a firm that consistently achieves significant recoveries and court decisions that benefit their clients and the class. The stimulating and rewarding environment, coupled with the firm's commitment to excellence, makes Krislov & Associates, Ltd. an exciting place to work for legal professionals who are passionate about making a difference in the legal world.
