Last updated on October 26, 2023

Many of our clients have suffered serious or catastrophic injuries. Others have lost loved ones in fatal accidents. Our attorneys are strong advocates for the injured. From our office in Geneva, our firm represents clients in communities throughout the Chicago metropolitan area, northern Illinois, neighboring states and nationwide.

Five Things To Do If You Have Been Injured In Illinois Or Elsewhere

  • Get emergency medical treatment right away.
  • Do not make statements to police or insurance companies before talking to an attorney.
  • Preserve evidence: Take pictures, keep track of the location of a wrecked car and get contact information for eyewitnesses.
  • Work closely with your doctors as you focus on getting well.
  • Beware of accepting early settlement offers before your ultimate prognosis has been determined. Keep communication channels open with your personal injury lawyer, who can help you make the right decisions for your financial recovery.

Lawyers Protecting The Rights Of The Injured Nationwide

The laws in Illinois and in most other states are clear: If another party is responsible for causing your accident or contributing to the extent of your injuries, you are entitled to seek full and fair monetary damages. Negligent parties are responsible for payment either through their insurance companies or directly, in the event policy coverage is not sufficient for the damages.

A note about defective products: FMCO Law provides legal representation for individuals harmed by defective products and dangerous prescription drugs. Numerous manufacturers continue to jeopardize public health and safety by selling products to unsuspecting consumers that are defective and not fit for their ordinary and intended use. Products often do not perform in accordance with the reasonable expectations of ordinary consumers. In many cases, the manufacturer has been aware of problems for a number of years and left millions of these products on the shelves in which the defects have not been addressed or corrected.
