About Brad Karlin, Chicago Employment Lawyer

Born and raised in the Chicago area, Brad Karlin understands the unique challenges facing local workers. After earning his J.D. and practicing at a globally recognized litigation firm, he founded Karlin Legal LLC with one goal in mind: protecting employees who’ve been treated unfairly on the job. With extensive experience in employment law—including wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, and harassment—Brad is committed to serving Chicago’s diverse workforce.

As a hands-on, personalized practitioner, Brad takes the time to understand each client’s story, identify practical legal strategies, and aggressively pursue favorable outcomes. Whether representing an individual unjustly fired or standing up to discriminatory policies, he’s guided by a simple principle: every worker deserves respect, fair treatment, and justice.

Outside the courtroom, Brad stays active in the local community. He frequently participates in bar association events, mentors emerging attorneys, and offers guidance to those in need.
