Mr. Chizewer was named to the list alongside his wife, Debbie Chizewer, an environmental law attorney at the Northwestern Law Environmental Advocacy Center. The Chizewers have done groundbreaking work on behalf of the residents of East Chicago, Indiana. Using advocacy and litigation, they have helped transform the clean-up process and pursued environmental justice for residents of an East Chicago Superfund Site.

Several chemical companies spent decades recklessly and negligently polluting a portion of East Chicago, and in late summer 2016, residents of a local public housing complex received notice that lead and arsenic contamination on the property had reached a level requiring permanent evacuation of their homes.

Goldberg Kohn has filed a lawsuit on behalf of East Chicago homeowners for compensation for property damage and emotional distress. The East Chicago homeowners have been represented pro-bono by Goldberg Kohn.
