About Jeffrey Lust

Jeffrey Lust is the Managing Attorney for New Business at Ankin Law in Chicago and a Chicago native who returned home after a roughly 40-year legal career largely spent in Louisiana and Texas. He originally went to Indiana University in Bloomington with plans to become a doctor before pursuing law at Tulane University School of Law in New Orleans. After early experience in insurance defense, he transitioned to plaintiff personal injury practice, inspired in part by witnessing the resilience of New Orleans residents rebuilding after Hurricane Katrina, and spent seven years with one of Louisiana's most prominent plaintiff personal injury firms before joining Ankin Law to handle Illinois personal injury matters.
