We will discuss your accident and outline the legal process. We consult with industry experts to help demonstrate the serious nature of your condition to the insurance company, a judge and the jury. Expert testimony can also help establish and prove liability. We are committed to helping you receive a suitable settlement. If a settlement can't be reached or is not in your best interest, we will zealously advocate to help you receive compensation for your injuries.
Thorough Investigations
Illinois is a comparative negligence state in terms of auto accidents. If you are found to be more than 50 percent at fault for your accident, you will not receive a jury verdict. We conduct thorough investigations to help prove liability. For truck accidents, we can subpoena the driver's log books and the drug/alcohol analysis conducted by the driver's employer and/or the state. We also review the accident reconstruction provided by the state.
Our legal team places a high priority on helping family members who have lost loved ones due to wrongful death. We can help you obtain compensation for your loved one's pain and suffering, as well as your loss. The firm also handles workers' compensation cases. Please contact us for more information.
Maximizing Insurance
We understand the complicated limitations of insurance claims and work hard to maximize insurance coverage. Depending on your situation, we can evaluate:
- Underinsured motorist coverage: This coverage is held in your policy and is activated if the other driver's policy coverage does not cover the cost of your injuries.
- Uninsured motorist coverage: This coverage is held in your policy and is activated if the other driver does not have insurance.
- Third-party coverage: In certain instances, including product liability claims, we can pursue coverage from other responsible individuals.
