Downers Grove Personal Injury Lawyers

Personal Injury Representation for Downers Grove

Downers Grove sits at one of the busiest crossroads in DuPage County — where I-88 and I-355 meet, and where Ogden Avenue, Butterfield Road and 75th Street carry heavy traffic every day. A serious crash on any of them, or a fall at a store or restaurant near downtown, can leave you with mounting medical bills and an insurance company working to pay you as little as possible.

The Crannell Law Group, LLC has represented injured people throughout DuPage County since 2009. From our Naperville office just west of Downers Grove, we handle every step of your claim — and because DuPage County injury cases are heard at the courthouse in Wheaton, you will have attorneys who know the local courts building your case from day one.

• Since 2009 we have recovered more than $50 million for injured people across Illinois
• Insurers make real offers when they know your lawyer will try the case — so we build every file for the courtroom
• Your questions go straight to your attorney, not an answering service
• We advance the costs and charge no fee unless we win your case

Damages You May Be Able to Recover

If someone else was at fault, you can pursue compensation for the full scope of what the injury has cost you, including:

• Medical bills, both current and future
• Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
• Pain and suffering
• Loss of a normal life
• Medical equipment and home modifications
• Funeral expenses, in wrongful death cases

What to Do After an Injury in Downers Grove

• Get medical attention right away — even injuries that seem minor should be documented by a doctor
• Report the incident — to the Downers Grove Police Department after a crash, or to the property owner or manager after a fall
• Document everything — the scene, the damage and your injuries
• Write down witness names and contact details before they leave
• Let us deal with the insurer — do not agree to a recorded statement first

Don’t Wait — Illinois Filing Deadlines Are Strict

Most Illinois injury claims must be filed within two years (735 ILCS 5/13-202), and deadlines for claims against government entities can be shorter still. The sooner we begin investigating, the stronger your case will be.
