- DUI/DWIThe dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol have been well-known for decades. Even so, some drivers still have too much to drink and end up causing serious or even fatal accidents. That’s why drunk driving remains one of the leading causes of car accidents.
- Wrongful DeathIf you suffered harm because of an accident or injury, or a loved one was injured or killed, you may be entitled to receive economic recovery from those who were at fault. This can be for anything from car accidents to airplane accidents, slip and fall accidents, burn injuries and other property accidents. Damages, or monetary compensation, may be awarded by an Illinois court to family members in a wrongful death lawsuit.
- Traffic ViolationsWhether you are hit by a vehicle on the Dan Ryan Expressway or I-90, injured in an accident at one of the dangerous intersections along East 87th Street, struck by a driver speeding along Lake Shore Drive or West North Avenue, or involved in a collision elsewhere in the Chicagoland area, seeking legal help from a car accident lawyer is essential for recovering the compensation you deserve.

- Drug CrimesDangerous drug cases can be extremely complicated.

You should also be aware that drug companies and their lawyers often have one goal in mind: to keep compensation to dangerous drug victims to a minimum. The same goes for cases involving defective hip implants.
