When You Need An Illinois Car Accident Attorney, We Help Accident Victims
Recovering from a motor vehicle accident can be an intimidating challenge. There are so many things that need to be taken care of, but victims rarely have the financial resources or even the physical capacity to do them. What’s worse is that the people who have the power to help – like those at insurance companies – are only looking out for themselves. An Illinois car accident attorney can help.
If you’ve been injured in an accident involving a motor vehicle, you need someone fighting in your corner. The personal injury attorneys at Frankfort Law Group provide Illinois accident victims in Frankfort and beyond with compassionate and affordable legal care. We support our clients as they recover and strive to secure the resources they’ll need along the way.

How Does A Car Accident Attorney Help?
Getting help from a lawyer directly after an accident maximizes your options and the chances of a favorable outcome. Before you call the insurance company, call us. We can guide you through conversations with them to ensure you don’t fall into any of their traps. We can also help you file your claim with them.
If the insurance company isn’t offering you the settlement you deserve for your accident, other options can get you on the road to recovery. One such option is filing a personal injury claim. A successful lawsuit can provide accident victims with compensation for several things, including:
- Medical bills
- Vehicle repairs or replacement
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Wrongful death
- Punitive damages
We help accident victims discover the full value of their claims and do all we can to ensure they receive compensation that adequately supports their recovery.
Commonly Asked Questions About Car Accident Cases
Our attorneys know that if you’ve been injured in an automobile accident of any kind, you probably have a lot of questions. Here, we answer some of the more frequently asked questions. However, every car accident is different. If you still have questions about your specific case, we encourage you to schedule a no-obligation initial consultation.
What should I do after an accident?
The first thing you should do after an accident is to make sure everyone is okay and call for medical help if it’s required. Next, it helps to gather as much information at the scene as possible. Exchange insurance information and take photos of the vehicles if it is safe to do so.
Most importantly, contact a car accident attorney as soon as possible to make sure your rights are protected.
Is there anything I should know before contacting the insurance company?
The most important thing to remember about insurance companies is that they are in business to make money. After a serious accident, it is not uncommon for insurance companies to offer to settle the case quickly. It is important to remember that once you settle your case, you cannot go back to get more money. If an insurance company is offering you a quick settlement, it is imperative that you consult a lawyer before accepting. An experienced car accident attorney will help make sure your right to recover damages for your accident injuries are protected.
What if the other driver doesn’t have insurance?
In the state of Illinois, auto insurance policies include underinsured motorist coverage. If the other driver does not have insurance, your own underinsured motorist coverage can cover your injuries.
