Common Questions About Chicago Car Accident Claims
If you’ve never filed a personal injury claim before, you’re not alone. We’re here to help you understand your rights and make smart decisions.
How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Illinois?
The statute of limitations is typically 2 years from the date of the crash. But don’t wait — evidence disappears quickly, and delays can weaken your case.
Do I need a lawyer for a minor accident?
Even if your injuries seem small, complications can arise later. Insurance companies often deny or delay claims. A free consultation can help you decide if legal help is right for you.
What’s my case worth?
Every case is different. Factors include your medical costs, time off work, pain and suffering, and whether fault is disputed. We’ll evaluate everything and fight to maximize your compensation.
Will I have to go to court?
Most cases settle out of court. But if the insurance company won’t make a fair offer, we’re fully prepared to file suit and fight for you in front of a judge or jury.
How much does a car accident lawyer cost?
We work on a contingency fee — that means no upfront cost, and you don’t pay us unless we recover money for you.
