At Abels & Annes, P.C., our personal injury attorneys are dedicated to representing accident victims and their families. We do not work for doctors, hospitals or insurance companies.
Families are never more vulnerable than when dealing with the serious injury or death of a loved one. Lost wages and the astronomical cost of medical care are often financially devastating. And the occupational consequences and future medical complications of a serious injury can last a lifetime.
Yet only the victim is without legal representation. Doctors, hospitals, at-fault drivers and their insurance companies, businesses and government entities all have law firms to look after their best interests. Most often this means shielding them from liability at the victim’s expense.
Your Personal Injury Rights in Illinois Under Illinois law, accident victims may file a personal injury claim against those responsible, seeking a wide range of damages, including lost wages, medical expenses and pain and suffering. Such claims may include:

However, it is incumbent upon the victim to choose a law firm carefully. Some things to consider when choosing a personal injury attorney in Illinois:
- Some law firms, including Abels & Annes, are dedicated to only representing the victims of accidents. While other law firms divide their focus, and may work for insurance companies, or may even handle other types of law, like divorces or DUI defense.
- At Abels & Annes, there is no fee unless there is a financial recovery on your behalf. That means we only get paid if you win your case.
- Ask a law firm you are considering to talk about past results. What types of cases has it handled, and what was the outcome? Does your firm list recent settlements and verdicts obtained on behalf of clients?
