Illinois comparative fault — and why it matters locally
Illinois follows a modified comparative negligence rule: your compensation is reduced by your share of fault, and if you are found more than 50% at fault you recover nothing. Because of this, insurers often argue that the injured person shared the blame. A careful investigation of how the crash happened helps answer those arguments.
Frequently asked questions — Niles workplace injurys
How much does it cost to hire a workplace injury lawyer in Niles?
Nothing up front. We handle Niles workplace injury cases on a contingency fee — you pay no fee at all unless we recover compensation for you.
How long do I have to file a workplace injury claim in Illinois?
Illinois generally allows two years from the date of injury for most personal injury claims, but exceptions and shorter deadlines can apply. Because evidence in Niles disappears quickly, speak with an attorney right away.
Do I have to go to court in Cook County?
Many workplace injury claims resolve without a trial. If a lawsuit is filed, the courthouse depends on where the crash happened, where the parties live, and the size of the claim. For Niles, that may be the Skokie Courthouse (Second Municipal District). We can explain which court applies to your case.
