Chicago Auto Accident Law โ€” Your Rights

Illinois requires all drivers to carry minimum liability insurance โ€” but those minimums are often woefully inadequate for serious injuries. When another driver's negligence causes your auto accident, you're entitled to compensation from their insurer for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage. If the at-fault driver is underinsured, your own UM/UIM coverage may provide additional recovery. Our Chicago auto accident attorneys identify every source of compensation and pursue them all.

Don't Talk to the Insurance Company Without an Attorney

The other driver's insurance adjuster will contact you quickly โ€” often within hours of the accident. Their goal is to get a recorded statement they can use against you and settle your claim for as little as possible before you understand its full value. Our attorneys handle all insurance communications on your behalf, preventing costly mistakes and ensuring you receive fair treatment throughout the claims process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to the most common questions about your case โ€” then call us for a free, personalized consultation.

Illinois has a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims from auto accidents. Property damage claims have a 5-year statute of limitations. However, you should contact an attorney immediately โ€” evidence fades and insurance policies have their own prompt reporting requirements.
Your own Underinsured Motorist (UIM) coverage provides additional recovery when the at-fault driver's policy limits are insufficient to fully compensate your damages. Our attorneys file UIM claims simultaneously with third-party liability claims to maximize your total recovery.
A police report is very helpful but not legally required to file an insurance claim. However, without a report, the other driver may deny or dispute fault. If police did not respond to your accident, you can file a self-reporting form with the Illinois Secretary of State. Our attorneys advise on the best approach for your specific situation.
Absolutely. Many serious injuries โ€” including whiplash, soft tissue damage, and traumatic brain injuries โ€” don't produce immediate symptoms. Seeing a doctor promptly creates medical documentation connecting your injuries to the accident. Gaps in treatment are frequently used by insurers to deny or minimize claims.
