Personal Injury and wrongful death
We represent individuals and the families of individuals who have been seriously injured or killed as a result of the negligent or wrongful conduct of others. We do not represent insurance companies against injured people.
We have successfully prosecuted cases throughout northern and north central Illinois, including Cook, Winnebago, JoDaviess, Stephenson, Boone, McHenry, Whiteside, DeKalb, Lee, Ogle, Carroll, Kane, DuPage, Lake, LaSalle, Peoria and McLean Counties. We have represented more than two thousand injured people over the years.
Our firm understands how insurance companies and lawyers on the other side think. Insurance companies are interested in minimizing their economic exposure when a serious injury or death has occurred. They hire attorneys whose job it is to aggressively undermine each aspect of your claim. We know their tactic. Thats why we prepare each case as if it will proceed to trial. In this way, we ensure that we have assembled the strongest and most persuasive evidence possible to maximize your recovery. By doing this, we believe we actually decrease the chance that each case will go to trial, by showing the insurance companies the overwhelming strength of each case. This also helps shorten the amount of time it takes to resolve each case.
If, however, an insurance company still refuses to fairly compensate our client, we will not hesitate to take a case to trial and all the way to a jury verdict if that is what is necessary to produce the best possible result. We have earned a reputation as a firm that takes a high number of cases to trial by refusing to accept anything less than a fair recovery for our injured clients. So insurance companies know not to take us lightly.
We represent individuals injured in all types of situations, including transportation injuries (cars, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles and pedestrian injuries), railroad injuries, construction injuries, fall downs and animal attacks. If you have sustained such an injury, contact us now for a free consultation. Time limits apply, so do not delay.
