Chicago Truck Accident Lawyers – Attorneys Representing the Victims of Auto Accidents in Chicago
Every day, across the streets and thoroughfares of Chicago and the surrounding areas, commercial trucks transport and distribute a wealth of products; they play a very important role in the economy of our nation. However, these trucks also pose a grave danger on the road. The average automobile weighs approximately 3,000 pounds, while the average commercial truck weighs about 80,000 pounds. Not only are these trucks dangerous to other vehicles, but they also pose a threat to their own drivers. Our Chicago truck accident lawyers know firsthand the destructive power of these heavy vehicles; our attorneys have represented numerous victims of truck and auto accidents in Chicago, as well as their loved ones.
In 2002, the U.S. Department of Transportation reported that more than 4,000 truck-related fatalities occur each year – that’s approximately 10 percent of the total annual traffic deaths. In addition to a high percentage of fatalities, truck accidents often leave survivors with serious, and even permanent, injuries. Our Chicago truck accident attorneys have experience working with victims of brain and spinal cord injury, as well as wrongful death victims. These victims, and their loved ones, deserve compensation for the loss of present and future income and benefits, repayment of medical and/or funeral bills, coverage of the endless financial demands incurred by a permanently debilitating condition, as well as damages for the pain and suffering they have endured.
We believe the victims of truck and auto accidents in and around the Chicago area should have as much emotional and financial security as possible. And while no amount of monetary compensation can ever restore the physical health of our injured clients, our Chicago truck accident lawyers hope to help restore some peace of mind.
