“Success at any age is impressive. But to achieve it at an early age is even more of a feat. This is exactly what the 40 young attorneys featured in this publication have done… This year, the competition was more intense than ever,” The Chicago Daily Law Bulletin writes.
In the official 40 Under Forty publication, Ms. Salvi’s peers say, “she is a force,” and note her strong presence in the courtroom that exudes confidence beyond her years. They say “she is a gifted person and lawyer that… connects with her clients and tells their story in the most powerful and effective way possible.”

The verdict is the highest compensatory verdict ever awarded to an individual plaintiff in the state of Illinois. Most recently, Ms. Salvi was part of a trial team that won a record-breaking $79.85 million jury verdict for the family of a 10-year-old girl who was killed following a police pursuit initiated by the Chicago Police Department.
