Licensed in Illinois since 2006, according to ARDC, O'Connor practices with the O'Connor Law Group LLC. O'Connor's campaign website notes a number of seven-figure verdicts in various kinds of civil matters, including medical malpractice, and one $15,000,000 verdict in a landlord-tenant matter where she represented a 5-year old who suffered burns over 85% of his body because of a defective electrical outlet.
O'Connor's campaign bio also notes that she is a former member of the Board of Managers of the Chicago Bar Association and also serves on the Board of Managers of the Illinois Trial Lawyers Association. She has also served in the Assembly of the Illinois State Bar Association.
Longtime FWIW readers may recall that O'Connor was briefly a candidate for the Appellate Court in the 2012 election cycle. She withdrew from the race within a couple of weeks after filing her petitions.

What does it say about someone who runs for the Appellate Court after only practicing 6 years?
LOL HER NAME IS EILEEN MARIE O'CONNOR AND INSTEAD OF RUNNING COUNTYWIDE SHE RUNS IN A LATINO SUBCIRCUIT
La demografía es el destino. Si no puedes leer esto, no eres el futuro.
Seems like somebody is scared of another gringa winning in the 6th.
