Illinois Side-Impact Crash Attorneys
Side-swipes, T-bones and other types of side-impact crashes are usually the result of aggressive driving. Someone changed lanes abruptly, pulled out into an intersection too soon or perhaps tried to beat a red light. While car manufacturers have made vehicles safer with the addition of door airbags for side-impact crashes, people riding in the vehicle are still subject to tremendous physical forces, resulting in catastrophic injuries.
If you were involved in a T-bone accident or other type of side-impact collision in Illinois, talk to your doctor about getting a thorough physical examination. Follow your doctor's orders for medical treatment, and talk to us. We are the Illinois car accident trial lawyers at Cogan & McNabola, P.C., Attorneys at Law, in Chicago. We offer a free consultation to evaluate your case and help you decide on your options for seeking full and fair money damages from the insurance company responsible for compensating you for your injuries.
Do Not Accept a Settlement Without Talking to an Attorney First
Side-impact accidents are generally the result of one driver losing control of the car or driving recklessly. Illinois is a modified comparative negligence state, meaning that injured parties may seek financial damages up to the percentage amount of fault assigned to the other party. Insurance companies are often quick to offer a low settlement when they know they are liable for significant money damages. If you take their check, you forfeit all further rights to seek additional compensation, if your injuries prove worse than you initially thought. You won't know the full value of your case until you talk to an experienced personal injury lawyer.
Our attorneys have more than 25 years of experience fighting for our clients injured in all types of car accidents in Illinois. We have helped clients turn minor insurance settlement offers into six-figure settlements and jury awards. We work hard to make sure you and your family receive every dollar.
