When to Contact Your Chicago Auto Accident Attorney

How do you know when it is time to contact an auto accident attorney in Chicago regarding your automobile accident and injury? Power Rogers & Smith, P.C. offers a few tips on knowing when it is time to discuss your case with us.

Talk to an car accident lawyer in Chicago if:

  • There were serious injuries incurred in the accident. These injuries include whiplash, sprains, fractures or broken limbs, soft tissue damage, amputation, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), or spinal cord damage.
  • The accident resulted in the death of a person. Did a family member die as a result of your accident? Your family may be entitled to wrongful death compensation.
  • You believe that fault is a factor in the accident. In certain accidents, it is always the fault of the other driver, such as in rear-end collisions.
  • Other parties were involved. These parties can include pedestrians, or other drivers in a multi-car pile-up.
  • Substance abuse may have been to blame for the accident. If you have reason to believe that alcohol, illegal drugs, or even prescription medication was a factor in the crash, speak to one of our auto accident lawyers in Chicago.
  • A police report was filed that you believe does not accurately describe the accident. A police report that erroneously puts you at fault for the accident can have extremely negative and long-lasting consequences.
  • You have car insurance, but your insurer refuses to pay your claim. If you faithfully paid your premiums, and your claim is valid, then your insurer cannot legally refuse to pay for it.
  • When your insurer agrees to pay a claim, but the compensation amount is too low. We know how to negotiate with insurance companies, and are often able to settle a claim with a larger compensation package than our clients can obtain by themselves.
  • You took time off from work to deal with the accident. Lost wages, including those incurred due to serious injuries, can be part of a compensation package in a winning lawsuit.
