Practice Areas
Truck Accident Litigation
Commercial vehicle accidents create layers of liability that car accident cases do not. Attorneys of Chicago investigates crashes involving trucks by examining black box data, driver logs, maintenance records, and load documentation to identify violations of federal safety regulations. The firm pursues claims arising from driver fatigue, improper loading, and equipment failures , causes that require documentary evidence and industry expertise to prove effectively.
Catastrophic injuries from truck accidents often include traumatic brain damage, spinal cord injuries, and wrongful death. These are cases with life-altering stakes, and the firm’s award-winning attorneys approach them with the investigative depth those stakes require. The firm serves truck accident victims in Naperville, Rockford, and throughout Illinois.
Car Accident Representation
The car accident practice covers the full range of collision types: drunk driving crashes, distracted driving accidents, speeding collisions, and failure to yield incidents. Injuries pursued for compensation include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, whiplash, broken bones, and amputation injuries. Illinois’s two-year statute of limitations applies to personal injury claims, and early engagement with legal counsel protects the ability to preserve evidence and meet filing deadlines.
The firm represents Rockford car accident victims, a city of more than 146,000 residents, and clients throughout the greater Chicago area. The team investigates accidents, negotiates with insurance companies, calculates damages including medical bills and lost wages, and represents clients at trial when insurers fail to offer fair compensation.
Workers’ Compensation
Workers’ compensation representation addresses injuries that occur on the job. Illinois law provides specific benefits for injured workers, and the process of securing those benefits , particularly when an employer or insurer disputes the claim , requires advocacy. The firm’s personal injury foundation applies directly to workers’ compensation, where proving the nature and extent of injuries is central to the outcome.
Premises Liability and Personal Injury
Beyond vehicle accidents, the firm handles premises liability and other personal injury matters throughout the Chicago region. Clients who have been injured through another party’s negligence receive representation focused on maximum compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Location and Service Area
The office is at 134 N La Salle Street, Suite 2160, Chicago, IL 60602. The firm serves injury victims throughout Illinois, with specific reach into Naperville, Rockford, and communities across the state. The (872) 324-4375 number connects clients to free consultations.
The firm’s contingency fee structure , 30 to 40 percent, paid only on a successful outcome , means the financial barrier to representation is removed. Clients facing medical bills and lost income after a serious accident can access quality legal help regardless of their current financial position.
Client Focus
The firm’s clients are injury victims who face insurance companies and defense counsel on unequal footing. An individual who has just survived a truck accident, a traumatic brain injury, or a serious car collision is not equipped to negotiate with experienced insurance adjusters or evaluate the full scope of damages. The firm’s attorneys understand insurance company tactics , including the tendency to make early settlement offers well below actual damages , and are prepared to reject those offers and go to trial.
The Super Lawyers and National Trial Lawyers recognitions are peer and credentialing body assessments, not self-reported credentials. They reflect a track record in the legal community.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the firm investigate truck accidents differently from car accidents?
Truck accidents involve federal regulation compliance, multiple potentially liable parties (drivers, carriers, loaders, manufacturers, maintenance crews), and specific documentary evidence. The firm analyzes black box data, driver logs, maintenance records, and load documentation to identify violations that caused the crash. This investigative approach is more intensive than a standard car accident investigation.
What is the contingency fee structure and when do clients pay?
The firm works on contingency, meaning no fees unless the case is won. The contingency rate is typically 30 to 40 percent of the recovery. Clients who have been injured and are facing financial pressure from medical bills and lost income pay nothing upfront.
What is Illinois’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims?
Illinois law generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline forfeits the right to sue. Clients should contact the firm as soon as possible after an accident to ensure the deadline is met and evidence is preserved.
Does the firm serve areas outside of Chicago?
Yes. While the office is in downtown Chicago, the firm serves injury victims in Naperville, Rockford, and throughout Illinois. Clients do not need to be in Chicago itself to receive representation.
