With a client-centered approach and a track record of recovering millions of dollars in compensation, the firm provides aggressive representation while treating every client as more than just a case number.

The firm was co-founded by attorneys Christopher F. Cowan and John P. Hilgeman. John Hilgeman earned his J.D. from the University of Dayton School of Law in 1982 and concentrates his practice in civil litigation, business law, estate planning, probate, and family law.

Attorney Jack R. Hilgeman, a fourth-generation lawyer, leads the firm's personal injury practice. Jack has secured over $25 million in settlements and judgments for clients in cases involving car accidents, truck accidents, medical malpractice, nursing home negligence, product liability, and wrongful death. He has been recognized by The National Trial Lawyers Top 40 Under 40 and is a member of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum. Jack earned his J.D. from the University of Dayton in 2010 and consistently receives awards for outstanding client satisfaction. Attorney Michael M.

Cowan & Hilgeman handles a comprehensive range of personal injury matters, including motorcycle accidents, slip and falls, premises liability, dog bites, brain injuries, and birth injuries.

Monument Avenue in downtown Dayton and proudly serves communities throughout Ohio.
