Skokie Car Accident Lawyer

If you’ve been injured in an auto accident, reach out to a qualified Skokie car crash lawyer who can help you secure the compensation you need. Don’t suffer more than you have to—just give us a call.

Automobile collisions are known for causing serious injuries. When you suffer a severe injury, you may need to take time off of work in order to recuperate. When you have steadily increasing medical bills and household expenses that still need to be covered, a lack of income can be truly devastating for your entire family.

At Lane Brown, LLC, we are prepared to build a powerful personal injury claim that will win you the full compensation you deserve. The liable party should be responsible for repaying you for the damage he or she caused in your life, and your Skokie car accident lawyer will do what it takes to make sure that happens.

Who’s at Fault for Your Skokie Car Crash?

One or several parties could have caused your car accident in Skokie. More often than not, the driver of the other vehicle involved in the crash will be found to hold some blame for your injuries. Whether he or she was driving aggressively, fatigued, drunk, or distracted, unsafe driving practices are the most frequent cause of motor vehicle accidents.

If the other driver is not at fault, we will examine both vehicles to determine if a part malfunctioned or was defective in some way.

If it was, we will look to the auto parts manufacturer or vehicle tech who installed the part on your car. Manufacturers can be held responsible when their defective parts cause crashes.

Additionally, an Illinois governmental road authority could have played a part in your accident if debris in the road, missing street lamps or signs, unsecured road construction zones, or a large pothole caused the collision. The government has a responsibility to maintain the safety of the roadways, and when it fails to meet this obligation, it can be held financially accountable.

What You Can Expect from the Insurance Company

Insurance companies have a habit of making it appear as though they are on your side, but they will usually prioritize their needs above those of their claimants and policyholders.

Illinois uses modified comparative negligence laws to determine fault in motor vehicle accidents. If you are found partially responsible for your accident, you can still pursue damages from the liable party, but your award will be reduced by the percentage of blame you carry.

This affects how the insurance company will go about handling your claim because it is going to do whatever it can to place blame on you for the crash. Doing so may enable the insurer to settle for less than what your claim is actually worth.

However, your car accident attorney in Skokie will never allow a greedy insurance company to place unwarranted blame upon you. We will do everything in our power to maximize your compensation.
