Key Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Chicago (And What You Should Know)

From car accidents to wrongful death, Duran Law Offices helps Chicago injury victims fight for justice. Learn about the cases we handle and how we can help.

Introduction

Personal injury law covers a wide range of accidents and negligent acts—but when you’re hurt, it’s not always clear if your situation qualifies as a “case.” At Duran Law Offices, we want Chicagoans to know: if someone else’s negligence caused your injury, you may be entitled to compensation.

Here are the key types of personal injury cases we handle.

Car and Truck Accidents

Whether it’s a rear-end collision downtown or a trucking crash on I-90, we represent victims of all types of motor vehicle accidents. These cases often involve complex insurance issues, commercial trucking regulations, and severe injuries.

Construction Negligence

Chicago is always under construction—and sadly, so are its accident statistics. Workers injured on job sites may have claims beyond workers’ compensation if third parties contributed to unsafe conditions.

Slip-and-Fall Accidents

Property owners have a duty to keep their premises safe. From icy sidewalks to broken staircases, we help victims hold negligent landlords and businesses accountable.

Dog Bites

Illinois imposes strict liability on dog owners. If you were bitten—especially if your child was involved—you don’t have to prove prior aggression to pursue damages.

Medical Malpractice

When trusted medical professionals fail to meet the standard of care, the consequences can be devastating. We pursue justice against negligent hospitals, doctors, and nurses.

Wrongful Death

No legal case can undo the pain of losing a loved one, but wrongful death claims can provide financial stability for grieving families.
