How Flaherty Law, LLC Can Help

Without qualified legal representation, securing compensation for damages sustained in a car accident can be frustrating. Insurance companies will deflect liability at every turn, and if they cannot avoid paying you a settlement, they can drag out the proceedings or try to appease you with an offer of minimal compensation. Flaherty Law, LLC is well aware of the tactics insurance companies employ to skirt their responsibilities to their customers, and we will press them at every turn to get you the compensation you deserve.

But just what can you be compensated for? You may be surprised at what you can collect in a settlement, including, but not limited to:

  • Medical expenses to treat your injuries.
  • Physical therapy.
  • Lost wages due to missed work.
  • Loss of future income as a result of a debilitating injury.
  • Mental anguish (often referred to as pain and suffering.)

At Flaherty Law, LLC, we will take the time to understand your circumstances so that we can help you get maximum compensation for your tangible and intangible losses.

Frequently Asked Questions About Car Accident Claims

The legal proceedings of an insurance claim for a car accident can move quickly, and you may have many inquiries about how the process works. As such, it may be helpful to cover some ground early on, so that you are fully informed of your options moving forward.

Q

What should I do after an accident?

Your first priority after a car crash should be to make sure both you and your passengers are alright: if anyone is in need of immediate medical attention, request an ambulance in addition to the police. Then, exchange insurance information with the other driver and wait for the police to arrive so that a formal crash report can be issued.

Q

What should I do in case of a hit-and-run?

If you are struck in a hit-and-run, call 911 right away and make note of any details about the vehicle that would help police identify the driver. If the driver cannot be found, then you can make an uninsured motorist claim through your insurance with the help of a skilled accident attorney.

Q

Who is responsible for covering damages in an accident?

In Illinois, the driver at fault is held liable for damages in an accident. Liability can be determined through witness statements, police reports, and crash reconstructions, all of which a car accident lawyer can help you obtain.

Q

When should I reach out to an insurance company?

The sooner you file an insurance claim, the better, but any negotiations with an insurance company should take place with your lawyer present. Without legal representation at your side, insurance companies can exploit your lack of knowledge to avoid taking financial responsibility and intimidate you into accepting a less favorable settlement.
