Kotin assumed the office of President of The Society of Trial Lawyers on Friday, Sept. 28, 2012 at the litigation group's annual meeting in Chicago.

The Society of Trial Lawyers is an elite, invitation-only group, which comprises many of the Chicago's top trial lawyers on both the defense and plaintiffs' sides. Kotin told the crowd of lawyers becoming president has extra meaning for him and his family.

"It was 32 years ago this month that my dad became president of the society and I remember that vividly and it was a big deal for him, and he passed 18 years ago, but I'm sure he's looking down and that he is happy about seeing his son following in his footsteps," Kotin said.

Kotin's practice areas include representing plaintiffs in personal injury, product liability and medical malpractice litigation. His involvement in the legal community is extensive. Dan is Treasurer of the Chicago Bar Association. He is on the faculty at Loyola University School of Law where he teaches a course on Civil Procedure, serves as a coach of the School's National Mock Trial Team and sits on the Board of Governors for the law school.
