Practice Areas

Expand all Collapse all

  • Car Accidents

    Automobile accidents can cause extreme physical injury to victims. And, in addition to physical pain and suffering, these injured victims must deal with large and unforeseen medical bills, lost wages, and emotional trauma.

  • Truck Accidents

    A trucking accident occurs when large trucks (10,000+ lbs.) collide with other vehicles or pedestrians. Around 500,000 trucking accidents occur every year in the United States. Of these, approximately 5,000 trucking accidents result in fatalities. In fact, one out of every eight traffic fatalities involves a trucking accident.

  • Motorcycle Accidents

    Riding a motorcycle poses serious risks-without the physical protection cars offer. Motorcyclists are more susceptible to serious injury posed by other drivers, defective roadway design, harsh weather conditions, and product defects. Victims may sustain broken limbs, road rash, traumatic brain injuries, and other harm, including death.

  • Pedestrian Accidents

    Pedestrians rights in Illinois require that drivers stop for them at all crosswalks. Even still, careless drivers continue to hit people crossing or walking along Chicago streets, causing serious injury and death.

  • Aviation Accidents

    Although flying may be statistically safer than driving a car, we all know from the news, that commercial as well as commuter and private planes do not always safely make it to their destinations.

    Learn More...
  • Defective Drugs

    Each year the FDA approves hundreds of new drugs, but the process sometimes fails to detect new drugs that have dangerous and sometimes fatal side effects.

    Learn More...
  • Construction Accidents

    Because it is their job to operate dangerous equipment, lift large or heavy objects, and work high off the ground, construction workers are at increased risk for on-the-job injuries. However, proper safety precautions and practices can prevent accidents and should be observed at job sites.

    Learn More...
  • Workers Compensation

    Every employer is responsible for providing Workers' Compensation benefits to injured workers directly (self-insured) or through the purchase of a Workers' Compensation insurance policy. These benefits are provided at no cost to employees.

    Learn More...
  • Medical Malpractice

    Each state, including Illinois, has its own period of time in which to commence a medical malpractice lawsuit. This time period, however, is usually longer for cases involving children.

    Learn More...
  • Slip & Fall Accidents

    Slip and fall accidents are personal injury and are one type of "fall down" accidents.

    Learn More...
  • Dog Bite

    Dogs instinctively protect their owners and perceived territory using their only means of defense - their teeth. Dog bites are painful and traumatic, often requiring emergency medical care.

    Learn More...
  • Product Liability

    In Illinois, product liability law enforces an individual’s right to hire an attorney and seek compensation for personal injury due to use of a defective product. Our Chicago-based product liability attorneys are experienced at defending these consumer rights.

    Learn More...
  • Birth Injuries

    Some babies may suffer a physical injury during the birth process. The birth injuries may arise due to the health problems of the mother or the negligence of the doctors.

    Learn More...
  • Wrongful Death

    Medical malpractice, vehicle crashes, nursing home abuse, work related accidents, dangerous or defective products, and construction site mishaps; all of these can result in a wrongful death case.
