Wheaton Personal Injury Lawyers

Personal Injury Representation in the Heart of DuPage County

A serious crash on Roosevelt Road or Butterfield Road, a fall at a local business, or an injury caused by someone else’s carelessness can upend your life in seconds. Suddenly you are facing medical bills, missed work and an insurance company that does not have your interests at heart. If you were injured in Wheaton, The Crannell Law Group, LLC is ready to stand up for you.

Wheaton is the DuPage County seat, and the DuPage County Courthouse on County Farm Road — where Wheaton injury cases are heard — is just minutes from our Naperville office. We have represented injured people in DuPage County courtrooms since 2009, and that local experience shapes how we build every case.

• More than $50 million recovered for injured Illinois clients since 2009
• Every case is prepared for trial, not just a quick settlement — insurers pay full value when they know you are ready to go to court
• You work directly with your attorney, not a call center
• No fee unless we win — your consultation is free, and we only get paid when you do

Damages You May Be Able to Recover

When someone else’s negligence causes your injury, Illinois law allows you to seek compensation for all of your losses, 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 Wheaton

• Get medical attention right away, even if you feel fine — some serious injuries take days to show symptoms
• Report the incident — to the Wheaton Police Department after a crash, or to the property owner or manager after a fall
• Photograph the scene, your injuries and any property damage
• Collect names and contact information for witnesses
• Talk to an attorney before giving a recorded statement to any insurance company

Don’t Wait — Illinois Filing Deadlines Are Strict

In most Illinois personal injury cases you have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit (735 ILCS 5/13-202), and some claims — such as those against government entities — have even shorter deadlines. Evidence fades quickly, so the sooner we can start investigating, the stronger your case will be.
