Insurance companies typically offer accident insurance policies in order to provide compensation for people who suffer personal injury. While accident insurance may sound like a helpful thing to have, most consumers don’t realize that their interests are often at odds with the interests of their insurance company. In other words, the insurance company has an interest in paying out as little as possible. For this reason, it is important to make sure that you have a professional attorney on hand to help you get the compensation you deserve.
If you have been injured in a car accident, contact the experienced and aggressive personal injury attorneys here at Malman Law by calling (312) 983-6193.

Suffering a personal injury can have dramatic consequences for your life. In addition to dealing with the immediate physical and psychological consequences, personal injury often has serious long-term impacts on your life. Furthermore, the financial damage due to lost income or medical bills can also make it difficult to get your life back on the road. Fortunately, there is legal recourse for individuals who have suffered personal injury. Personal injury claims are typically filed in situations where there was another party at fault. Two of the most common forms of personal injury cases involved car accidents and slip and fall accidents:
-
Car Accidents – The injuries that result from automobile accidents are some of the most common types of personal injury claims. Regardless of how carefully you follow the traffic rules, there are always drivers who are negligent. This usually means that they fail to follow the traffic rules in a proper manner. If you’ve been involved in a car accident in which another driver’s negligence caused a collision, contact a personal injury attorney as soon as possible to discuss the strength of your case and whether you should pursue a financial claim.
-
Slip and Fall Accident – Whether you are in a residential property like an apartment building or a commercial property such as a restaurant or grocery store, the owner of the property has a responsibility to ensure that the property is safe. In particular, the floors and stairs have to be in good condition to facilitate movement. Failure to maintain safe conditions can lead to serious slip and fall accidents that can result in injury. For example, if you are in the grocery store and you end up slipping on a puddle of liquid that the store failed to clean up, this could be grounds for a personal injury claim.
The examples listed above are just a small sample of the wide variety of personal injury claims. A personal injury attorney can help you evaluate the strength of your case and gather the evidence necessary to make sure that you get the compensation you deserve.

Getting into a car accident can have serious consequences, both in the short and long term. Oftentimes, even minor accidents result in personal injury like whiplash, back and neck pain, and other types of trauma. More serious car accidents can even be fatal. While there is no way to protect yourself completely, there are steps you can take to minimize the chances that you will be involved in an automobile accident. Here are some of the common causes of car accidents and tips on how to avoid them.
-
Distracted Driving – One of the most common causes of car accidents is distracted driving. Driving while distracted can increase your chance of either causing a collision yourself or getting hit by another vehicle. Consequently, it is important to make sure that the road always has your full attention. This way, should any other drivers practice negligent driving, you will have more time to get out of the way and stay safe. And if you are ever in a collision and suspect that the ever driver was distracted in any way, contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible.
-
Failure to Follow Traffic Rules – Following traffic rules is of the utmost importance when you are driving. For example, if you fail to come to a complete stop at a stop sign and yield for traffic in the other direction, you could be the negligent party in an automobile accident. In order to prevent negligence, it is important to make sure that you diligently follow traffic laws. Again, if you suspect that your car accident was the result of another driver’s negligence, contact a personal injury lawyer to pursue the appropriate financial compensation.
