About Saville & Flint, L.L.C. 

Saville & Flint is dedicated to protecting the rights of individuals and families who have suffered catastrophic injuries as a result of another's negligence and/or recklessness. At Saville & Flint, our attorneys have extensive experience and a proven track record of success in matters involving exposure to toxic substances.

We represent injured individuals and families all across the U.S. and strive to ensure the responsible parties are held accountable for their actions.

Being based in Illinois, the Dead Creek situation has struck a close cord with our attorneys. We have, thus, dedicated ourselves to protecting the rights and interests of families affected by toxic exposure in Dead Creek.

Saville & Flint Take a Different Approach

At Saville & Flint, we believe in taking a personal approach and treating every injured party as an individual. We believe the unique details of each individual case are just as important as the legal facts and we will take the time to listen. We want to hear what you have to say and feel it is important so we can tell your story just as it happened, clearly and with passion—this is how we are able to produce real results.

We handle each matter with the same compassion and commitment we would expect for our own families and will not put you in a “one-size-fits-all" system.
