Working With Us is Easy
Understanding and applying the law
Perhaps the most obvious reason to hire an attorney is to have someone who knows the law. That includes statutes, the court decisions that interpret them, and various rules that concern civil procedure, discovery, and evidence.
Investigating the personal injury
Your lawyer should conduct an independent investigation to uncover evidence related to the injury. Obtaining copies of police and medical records, talking to witnesses, and reviewing photographs and video footage are examples.
Identifying the at-fault parties
The investigation may reveal that other parties were also responsible for the personal injury. For example, if a drunk driver caused a car accident and a bar served him or her too much alcohol before the wreck, that establishment may be liable.
Negotiating with the insurance companies
Most personal injury cases are resolved out of court in discussions with the at-fault party’s insurance company. Your Granite City personal injury lawyer should understand how to effectively negotiate with insurers.
Representing you in mediation
Personal injury matters can be settled in mediation, and you can (and should) have an attorney present. Your lawyer can help you weigh settlement offers versus the risk of going to trial.
Litigating your case, if necessary
Our attorney is an experienced litigator who knows what it takes to prevail in court. We often rely upon expert witness testimony (for example, from accident reconstructionists) to bolster our clients’ cases

Truck Accidents
Victims of large truck accidents tend to suffer catastrophic injuries that justify substantial amounts of compensation from the at-fault party.

Uber/Lyft Accidents
Rideshare accident claims can be complex because they may involve multiple liable parties and more than one insurance company.

Slip and Fall Accidents
A slip-and-fall accident can happen anywhere and leave the victim with injuries, such as spinal cord damage and traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Medical Malpractice
When healthcare providers fail to meet the applicable standard of professional care, the injured patient can file a malpractice lawsuit.

Wrongful Death
Considered loosely to be an extension of personal injury, wrongful death applies when a person dies because of the at-fault party’s negligent behavior.

Have Any Questions?
Everyone has the right to live and pursue their interests without the fear that someone’s negligent or intentional conduct will cause them harm. When this happens and the victim suffers damages, that person has the right to seek monetary compensation from the at-fault party.
Winning damages in a personal injury lawsuit can be an uphill battle, as the victim bears the burden of proof and is almost guaranteed to face pushback from the attorneys and insurance companies representing the defendant.
Retaining a personal injury lawyer in Granite City is essential to make your strongest case for the maximum amount of damages. Our firm represents a wide variety of personal injury victims from all walks of life.
Although every personal injury case is different, most victims can seek compensation for medical bills, lost work earnings, pain and suffering (and other similar losses), and property damage. You can also ask for reasonably estimated future damages and, in some cases, punitive damages.
Most Illinois personal injury claims are generally subject to a two-year statute of limitations or deadline (which can be extended in some cases). If you file after the applicable statute of limitations expires, your case will be dismissed and you won’t recover anything.
The value of your case depends on numerous factors, such as the extent of your injuries, number of at-fault parties, the effect of your injuries on your ability to work, and other elements. Expert witnesses, such as medical and vocational experts, can offer valuable testimony concerning your damages.
