Chicago's Leading Truck Accident Injury Lawyers
When you seek financial damages after a truck accident in Illinois, you may be litigating against more than one defendant. Besides the truck company's insurance provider, you may also have to seek compensation directly from the company's self-insurance fund. In some cases, the truck driver may be an independent driver and may be included as a defendant, as well. Subcontractors responsible for maintaining the truck and trailer or those responsible for loading and securing the products on the trailer may also be held liable for contributing to the cause of the accident and the extent of your injuries.
At Cogan & McNabola, P.C., Attorneys at Law, in Chicago, we have extensive experience fighting on behalf of people who suffered injury or the loss of a loved one in a serious truck accident in Illinois. We are not a 'quick settlement' law firm. Truck accidents are often complex, involving multiple defendants and various levels of liability for contributing to your financial damages.
Over-the-road freight corporations often approach injury victims with a low, quick settlement offer, in the hopes of reducing the full extent of their liability. Thoroughly investigating and preparing a truck accident injury or wrongful death case for trial can take years of in-depth research and preparation. Cogan & McNabola has the professional and financial resources to hire the leading medical, life-care and accident reconstruction experts to take your case to trial. We don't back down and push you for an early settlement. We take cases to trial.
We Turn to Independent Professionals to Prepare Your Case
We are experienced, knowledgeable trial lawyers. Part of our experience is knowing when to turn to experts in the fields of truck accident reconstruction, medical care and financial matters. We don't take a case, and then expect you to settle quickly. Many truck accident cases can take years to reach a full and fair outcome or come to trial. We have the professional and financial resources to offer full and complete representation and a record of success to back us up.
Our results include many of the most significant verdicts and settlements in Illinois truck accident litigation, including many multimillion-dollar settlements and verdicts in cases involving multiple defendants, such as truck company negligence and truck driver misconduct on the road.
Contingency Fees for All Truck Accident Injury and Wrongful Death Cases
Handling a serious truck accident case requires a law firm's commitment to provide the financial and professional resources for a long-term case.

Your fees are paid as a percentage of the amount of settlement or verdict we obtain on your behalf.
