We take painstaking measures to ensure that our settlement demands are accurate. Our team will have one chance to obtain all the compensation you deserve, and we will take full advantage of that opportunity.
Once we know the fair value of your case, we will begin negotiating with the liable parties. Depending on the details of your case and the insurance landscape, we may first seek a settlement from insurers. If insurers do not provide the fair settlement you deserve, we may then sue liable parties.
Attorney Brennan and our team will update you as settlement negotiations progress. We will review all settlement offers with you, advising you whether any offer is fair. You will decide whether or not to accept a settlement, and we will provide the information and advice for you to make an informed decision.
If you choose to sue, our firm will represent you throughout the legal process.
We can still negotiate a settlement once you sue. However, liable parties may not offer a fair settlement even after becoming the subject of the lawsuit. If going to trial is the right decision for you, our team will pursue your financial recovery in the designated Chicago court.
We will also handle communications, paperwork, and the many other duties involved in completing premises liability cases. Our robust team of seasoned legal professionals is ready to fight for you today.
We will identify all harm resulting from the liable parties’ negligence, and your recoverable damages may include the following:
