Our goal is simple: To achieve the best possible result for our clients in each and every case we handle. It is a goal we have been consistently successful in meeting. Since Steven Levin and John Perconti merged their respective practices in 1992, our Chicago personal injury lawyers have recovered more than $380 million in verdicts and settlements for our clients, many of them in high-profile cases that received national media attention. Additionally, our Chicago nursing home lawyers have recovered over $100 million for victims of nursing home abuse and neglect and their families.
We have successfully handled all types of personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits including, but not limited to:
• Personal Injury
Personal injury claims and lawsuits arise when people are injured by careless or intentional acts of others, or injured by products that are defective in some way. When someone is determined to be legally responsible for injuring someone else, they are liable for the injury, and may be made to pay the injured person compensatory damages.
• Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect
These types of lawsuits commonly involve wandering and elopement, bed sores/pressure ulcers, falls in nursing homes, physical or sexual abuse/assault, physical or chemical restraints, malnutrition or dehydration, choking, clogged breathing tubes, burns and other injuries that occur in nursing homes, assisted living facilities and by home healthcare providers.
• Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice claims and lawsuits arise when patients are injured or killed as a result of the careless or intentional acts of a doctor, nurse or other healthcare provider. These commonly involve medical errors, injuries at birth, surgical errors, pharmacy medication errors, misdiagnosis, failure to diagnose cancer (breast, bladder, lung, ovarian, cervical, pelvic), misread tests or X-rays, HMO misconduct, adverse drug reactions, and medical device failure.
• Wrongful Death
Wrongful death as a legal term is a death that has been caused by the fault of another person. For example, deaths caused by drunk driving, the manufacture of a defective or dangerous product, the construction of an unsound structure or building, or failing to diagnose a fatal disease may be considered under the law as "wrongful deaths".
• Product Liability
Products liability is an area of personal injury law that focuses on dangerous and defective products. Our firm represents injured victims throughout Illinois area in matters against corporations or manufacturers who have sold or manufactured unsafe products to consumers.
• Car and Truck Accidents
Every time a driver gets behind the wheel of a motor vehicle, he or she is accepting responsibility for the safety of everyone else on the road. Accidents can and do happen. But if a driver's negligent behavior or careless actions lead to the injury or death of another party, that driver must be held accountable.
