Bolingbrook, IL Personal Injury Attorney

Lawyer for Motor Vehicle Collisions, Product Liability, Dog Bites, and Nursing Home Neglect in Bolingbrook, Illinois

When a person suffers an injury, multiple areas of their life may be affected. Expenses related to medical treatment can add up quickly, even for seemingly minor injuries. In more serious cases, a person may not only be required to pay large medical bills, but they may be temporarily or permanently disabled, affecting their ability to earn an income. In addition to the financial effects of an injury, a victim may experience a great deal of physical pain, and they and their family members may be affected by ongoing emotional trauma. For those who were injured because of someone else's negligence, it is important to work with a personal injury attorney to determine the best options for receiving monetary compensation.

Attorney Daniel Flaherty understands the difficulties that injury victims experience, and he is dedicated to helping his clients obtain the resources that will ensure that they can rebuild their lives. He has experience representing clients on both sides of personal injury cases, and this gives him an understanding of the tactics used by insurance companies and other defendants to minimize the amount paid to victims. Armed with this knowledge, he fights to ensure that victims are fully compensated for all of the ways their lives have been affected by their injuries.

Legal Help With Personal Injuries in Bolingbrook

When injuries occur because of the negligence of a person, company, or organization, a victim deserves to be compensated for the damages they have suffered, regardless of the severity of their injuries or the extent of their damages. Flaherty Law, LLC can assist with multiple types of injury cases, including:

• Motor vehicle collisions - Negligent drivers may be held responsible for injuries suffered by others in car accidents. Truck drivers and trucking companies may be liable for injuries that occur in truck accidents, including cases involving driver fatigue, tire blowouts, brake failure, overturned trucks, or dropped cargo loads. In addition to these cases, we can provide representation in situations involving injuries to motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians.
• Premises liability - People who are allowed to be on someone else's property, including visitors to private residences or customers at retail stores, may be injured because of a property owner's negligence. A property owner is responsible for correcting hazards or warning visitors about the risks of injury, and if they fail to do so, they may be held liable for injuries suffered by visitors. We can help hold property owners responsible for slip and fall injuries, injuries to children, and other types of injuries that occur because of hazards on a premises.
• Dog bites - Illinois law states that a dog's owner or the person responsible for an animal is liable for injuries inflicted by dog bites or attacks. Victims can take legal action to collect compensation for dog bite injuries, regardless of whether a dog was known to be dangerous or had any history of aggressive behavior.
• Defective products - People who are injured when using a product as it was intended may be able to hold the product's manufacturer, distributor, or retailer liable for their damages. Product liability cases may be based on design defects, manufacturing defects, or failure to warn about the risks of using a product.
• Nursing home injuries - A negligent nursing home may be held liable for injuries that are caused by abuse or neglect of patients. We can assist with multiple types of cases involving nursing home negligence, including situations where patients were injured due to misdiagnosis of medical conditions or falls.
• Wrongful death - The family members of a deceased person may pursue compensation from a person or company that was responsible for their loved one's death. Recoverable damages may include medical expenses, lost income, loss of companionship, expenses for the person's funeral and burial, and family members' grief, sorrow, and mental anguish.
