:: Personal Injury
Sustaining a personal injury can be one of the most devastating and life-altering events that you will ever experience. At the Law Offices of Joshua A. Lee & Associates, we realize the physical, emotional and monetary stress that this kind of injury can place on you and your family.
Our attorneys take these factors into consideration when we handle your case, and we will do whatever we can to get you through this painful process as smoothly as possible. Our law firm will take immediate, strategic, and aggressive action on your case. We are here to fight for your rights. THERE IS NO FEE UNLESS WE WIN YOUR CASE.
When you are injured, whether in a car accident, truck accident, slip and fall accident, motorcycle accident, construction accident, or any other kind of personal injury accident, everything changes. You might not be able to walk or turn your head properly. You might have to undergo multiple surgeries. You might not have the funds or income to pay your medical bills or support your family. The Law Offices of Joshua A. Lee and Associates will protect your interests and help you obtain the financial means to pay for your recovery. Damages recovered from a personal injury claim may vary and can include cost of medical bills, lost wages during treatment and the recovery period, future recovery costs, pain and suffering, and punitive damages to punish defendant(s) for negligent or careless actions.
Our attorneys want to make sure that you get exactly what you need to recover from your injuries. We work with qualified medical experts who specialize in different injuries and who can give you the proper care that you need.
We know that your medical bills are rising, and we will aggressively pursue your compensation so that you receive your money as soon as possible—even if this means fighting for your rights in court. We are not afraid to fight for you.
Pedestrian and Bicyclist Injuries
You don't have to be a driver or a passenger of a motor vehicle involved in a car accident to be eligible for compensation. In 2005, 164 pedestrians were killed in Illinois because of negligent motor vehicle drivers, while nationally, 64,000 pedestrians were injured. That same year, 22 bicyclists died because of collisions involving motor vehicles. Our law firm has helped many pedestrians and bicyclists file damages for their personal injuries.
Uninsured and Underinsured Motorists
Although, by law, all drivers are required to have insurance, not everyone does. If you have been in a hit-and-run accident or a car collision involving a negligent, uninsured driver, you will have to turn to your insurance company to file a recovery claim. If the at-fault driver has only partial insurance coverage, you will also have to turn to your insurance company to collect the remaining damages. In both kinds of cases, you will have to prove that the other driver was negligent, which is why you should retain an experienced personal injury lawyer. Our attorneys can prove that you were the victim of a negligent car driver and negotiate the damage amount for you.
