Car Accident Causes

Speeding, drunk driving, and distracted driving are some of the most common examples of negligence that can cause a car crash. Inclement weather, road construction, and open intersections on rural roads can also create conditions that require greater driver care, which may factor into your claim for compensation if another driver failed to take the necessary precautions.

Types of Accidents

We recognize that a head-on collision case may require a different approach from a rear-end collision case, that a multiple-vehicle pileup is often more complicated than a two-car accident, and that an accident involving a commercial truck may be more severe than a crash between passenger vehicles. Our breadth of experience with all types of accidents has allowed us to develop successful strategies for demonstrating fault and collecting compensation regardless of the nature of your crash.

Types of Injuries

The effects of car accident injuries can last for months, years, or even the rest of your life. We can help you recover damages for head and brain injuries, back and spinal cord injuries, broken bones, internal organ damage, and burn injuries. We always consider the total impact of your injuries so that you can seek full compensation for all related expenses and damages.

Uninsured and Underinsured Motorists

Obtaining full compensation for car accident injuries often means pursuing payment from the driver's insurance company, rather than expecting him or her to pay out of pocket. However, this may not be possible if the driver is uninsured, or if the liability coverage limit is below the amount you are seeking. We are committed to helping you cover expenses by alternative means if necessary, such as filing a claim with your own car insurance provider for uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage.

  • I contacted Kanoski Bresney. I met with Todd and one of his associates. We talked for a better part of an hour. He took my case, and from that moment on, I was up to date on everything. He did more in two weeks than that other attorney did in three years.

  • After a work related injury I was dealing with resistance from an insurance company. I felt lost in a world I knew nothing about the legal world. Kanoski Bresney helped guide me to make the best decision for myself. I am incredibly grateful.

    - Mariah Johnson

  • Todd handled my case and I thank God for him. He was more than dedicated at getting me the settlement I deserved. He has a good heart and did more than he had to to make sure I was taken care of. Thank you so much

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a time limit for filing a personal injury claim?

In Illinois, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is two years in most cases. This means that person must file a claim within two years after an accident or within two years after they first knew about an injury. In some cases involving government liability, the statute of limitations is one year.

What is my personal injury claim worth?

The value of a personal injury will be based on a number of factors, including the age and health of the victim, the extent and severity of their injuries, disabilities that have affected the victim's ability to earn an income, the physical and emotional pain and suffering of a victim and their family, and whether an injury occurred because of someone's gross negligence.

Can I receive compensation if I was partially at fault for an injury?

Under the comparative negligence laws in IL, you can pursue compensation as long as you were 50% at fault for your injury or less. If it is determined that you were partially at fault, the compensation you can receive will be reduced by the percentage that you were at fault. If you were 25% at fault, you will receive 75% of the total amount of your damages.

What are my options if I was in a car accident with an uninsured driver?

If an at-fault driver was uninsured, or if their insurance policy will not fully cover your damages, your own insurance policy may provide uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage. Our attorneys can help you negotiate a settlement with your insurance company and determine whether you have other options for receiving compensation in an accident.
