How do I Know Which Illinois Truck Accident Attorney Will be the Best to Hire for my Case?

As in any professional service, you need to find not only someone who is experienced and qualified to do the job but also one with whom you feel comfortable. Injury accident cases are very personal, and you will need to work closely with your attorney to have the best results. Some initial questions you should ask a truck accident attorney before hiring them may include:

• What experience do they have in handling Illinois truck injury accident cases and their success rate?
• What their fee is and how is it paid?
• How many of cases like mine go to trial?
• Are you willing to meet with me elsewhere if I cannot come to your office?

Expectations and time management in any case are important but they are incredibly key in Illinois truck accident litigation. They are so vital because the cases themselves are so complex factually and typically involve many different parties as well as complicated legal concepts. However, our law firm specializes in representing victims of truck accidents. If you choose us to represent you, this is the general path that your lawsuit will take:

Stage One: In the initial stages of your claim, we will spend a lot of time and all of our energies investigating what happened, who was at fault, and how you were specifically injured. This will assist us when we turn to examine the legal concepts that afford you the most relief.

Stage Two: After we finish the exploratory phase of your truck accident lawsuit, we will build your case and submit a complaint for relief. The defendant will answer in a reply and then there will be some back and forth legal drafting through motions.

Stave Three: One of the most important stages of your lawsuit is discovery. It occurs soon after the commencement of your suit and is how both parties exchange information and evidence. This is the time when you get all the tools you need to make your case.

Stave Four: After you've done all of your investigation, preparation, and communication, it is time for your truck accident trial to start assuming you don't settle. At trial, you must use evidence and witnesses to show the jury why the laws afford you the right to recover.

Of course, your case will have its own unique intricacies but this outline should give you a good sense of how it will generally develop. If you have been injured in a truck accident, contact our offices so that we can explain to you exactly what to expect.
