JVR continually collects, analyzes and publishes summaries detailing Illinois civil jury verdicts and negotiated settlements. With our extensive, searchable database, JVR is the leading Illinois case evaluation resource for attorneys.

Founded in 1959, the Jury Verdict Reporter is the second oldest business of its kind in the U.S. Our comprehensive database contains more than 80,000 cases and is available only through our "On Point" call-in research service, and through our online research system, AccessPlus®. See detailed descriptions of these services to the left. The Jury Verdict Reporter annually hosts the JVR Awards & Reception, an event that brings together the plaintiff’s bar, the defense bar and the judiciary in a celebration of outstanding achievements and careers. Record verdicts, significant defense verdicts, career milestones and lifetime achievements are recognized as the JVR presents awards of Trial Lawyer Excellence to deserving civil litigators, trial attorneys and mentors.
