Car accidents are traumatizing experiences. It can be difficult to remember the details days, weeks, or months later. That’s why we recommend documenting the scene immediately following the accident if you can.

But what exactly does that mean? That means taking photos and videos of the vehicles involved in the crash as well as the surrounding area – the more documentation, the better. You can also take a voice recording, recounting what happened – during and after the accident. Be sure to save all these materials and share them with your personal injury attorney.

A common myth about personal injury cases is that minor injuries don’t warrant action.

The reality is that even if an injury seems minor, you should still investigate your legal options. You may be entitled to receive compensation for any medical expenses. Also, some accident-inflicted injuries may not be noticeable right away, but cause trouble down the road. If you begin to experience pain, call your doctor and keep all medical records to share with your personal injury attorney.

The decision to move a loved one into a nursing home is never easy. Fortunately, in Illinois, we have one of the nation’s strongest protections for those living in nursing homes - the Illinois Nursing Home Care Act (INHCA).

However, some of our state’s nursing homes fall short of providing the quality of care mandated by the INHCA and other related laws. If you believe that a nursing home’s negligence led to injury or death of a loved one, or if your loved one has developed a medical condition such as bedsores, dehydration, renal failure, or hasn’t received appropriate hygiene or personal care, we can help.
