Personal injury and workers' compensation — handled by an attorney who has litigated at the federal appellate level, taken on major institutions, and knows exactly how the other side thinks. That depth changes outcomes.
Marc Trent built his career in the most demanding courts in the country — federal district courts, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, Delaware Chancery — litigating civil RICO claims, technology cases, and matters for clients across the globe.
That background is not past tense. It's the reason his PI clients are different. When Marc evaluates an injury case, he sees what defense counsel sees. He anticipates how insurers attack documentation, challenge causation, and minimize exposure. He closes those gaps before they become problems.
The choice to focus on personal injury was intentional. The cases that matter most to people — the accidents, the injuries, the moments that upend lives — deserve the highest level of legal skill available. That's the practice he runs.
Car accidents, truck collisions, premises liability, slip and fall. From the moment of the call, we document everything, manage your medical care, and build the record that maximizes your recovery. No fee unless we win.

Beyond PI and workers' comp, Marc Trent has handled complex federal civil litigation, civil RICO matters, Big Tech and Section 230 disputes, defamation and reputational harm cases, and Delaware Chancery proceedings. That experience is what distinguishes how he approaches every injury case today.
Every major case I've handled — RICO, appellate, Big Tech — sharpened one thing: how to see a case the way the other side sees it. That's what I bring to every injury case now.
