Overview

Adam Prom has contributed significantly to and led a variety of complex litigations that have resulted in settlements worth hundreds of millions of dollars, including class actions and multidistrict litigation (MDLs). He has represented consumers, small and large businesses, whistleblowers, and public entities in all manner of cases, including those involving consumer protection, privacy, product liability and automotive defects, environmental contamination, False Claims Act qui tam, and business disputes. Adam’s broad knowledge base and experience sets him apart and allows him to successfully traverse any practice area at the firm, all the while focusing on redressing harm caused by others’ unscrupulous business practices. Adam has represented consumers and businesses against industry titans like Google, Meta, CVS, Nissan, and Navistar. He has been listed annually since 2019 as an Illinois Rising Star by Super Lawyers, and he is part of the firm’s Cybersecurity & Privacy team, which Law360 recognized as “Group of the Year” for three consecutive years (2020-2022).

In addition to monetary recoveries for the firm’s clients, Adam also pursues important injunctive relief to correct business practices moving forward. In one case, in addition to a settlement fund of $21 million, Adam served as part of a team that obtained an agreed injunction to ensure the humane treatment of animals. In other cases involving privacy and cybersecurity, Adam and his colleagues are at the forefront of not only pursuing and obtaining large settlements but also the deletion of ill-gotten personal data and prevention of other personal intrusions.

Beyond his class action work, Adam has substantial trial experience in state and federal court, and he has successfully led and won multiple arbitrations for individual consumers and businesses, including a multi-day arbitration against a multi-billion dollar group of trusts.

Adam has demonstrated a commitment to public service, and is active in multiple legal advocacy organizations including Public Justice, the American Association for Justice, and other state and federal bar associations. Adam also serves on the Chicago Bar Association’s Judicial Evaluation Committee and has volunteered his time to multiple organizations in Chicago, particularly mentoring students.
