Des Plaines Car Accident Lawyer

If you’ve been injured in an automobile accident and aren’t sure what you should do next, get in touch with a Des Plaines car crash lawyer for help holding the at-fault party accountable.

People who are harmed in motor vehicle accidents often suffer serious injuries that will require them to take a significant amount of time away from work while they focus on recovering.

Unfortunately, your household expenses still need to be paid and you’ll be steadily incurring extensive medical bills that need to be covered. Without an ability to earn a living, continuing to support yourself and your family can seem impossible.

At Lane Brown, LLC, we understand that this is possibly one of the most trying times in your life. That’s why a Des Plaines car accident lawyer from our firm will investigate the cause of your accident to establish liability and negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf to ensure that you are not taken advantage of.

With our firm on your side, you can rest easy while knowing that a team of highly trained attorneys has your best interests in mind.

Fault in Des Plaines Motor Vehicle Accidents

Determining who is at fault for the car crash that injured you is critical to the success of your claim. Your car accident attorney in Des Plaines will gather evidence, including witness statements, video footage, photographs, police reports, and your medical documentation, to build a case against the liable party.

A number of entities could have contributed to the cause of your collision. Generally speaking, the first person to be examined for blame is the driver of the other involved vehicle. The driver might have been engaging in unsafe driving practices, such as distracted driving, operating a vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol, aggressively driving, or driving while fatigued.

We may also examine the local government road authority for liability if the roads themselves weren’t safe to drive on.

As part of our investigation, we will thoroughly examine the vehicles involved in the crash to determine whether a faulty or malfunctioning part contributed to the crash. If so, we will look to the vehicle parts manufacturers, automakers, and technicians responsible for performing routine maintenance on the vehicle for liability.

Be Cautious When Dealing with the Insurance Company

Once liability has been established, we will likely be dealing with an insurance company as we seek compensation for you. It’s important to keep in mind that the insurance companies are not on your side. They are going to do whatever they can to protect their profit margins, which will be affected if they are required to pay out on your claim.

Some insurers are even known to manipulate the statements given to them by injured claimants to make it appear as though the victims hold more liability for the accident than they do. Your car accident lawyer in Des Plaines can prevent this from happening. Our team is well-versed in these types of insurance tactics and will never allow an insurer to trick you into settling for less than you’re owed.
