Serious & Catastrophic Injuries Attorney
in Hanover Park, Illinois
Helping Victims & Families After Catastrophic Injuries
A catastrophic accident occurs in an instant, but the profound pain and loss may be felt for months and years after. When such injuries were caused by the negligence of another person or company, it is important that you seek skilled representation to learn your rights under the law and how to proceed in seeking justice.
Since 1981, Maritote Law has been advocating for injured individuals and grieving families in achieving justice for their pain and loss. While monetary awards will do nothing to bring back a loved one or end the pain, they are the only form of justice allowed under the law. These damages can help to provide for loved ones that remain, including children of the deceased or families whose primary breadwinner has lost his or her ability to earn an income due to a disabling injury.
We represent individuals and families in Cook County, DuPage County and surrounding areas of northern Illinois. For a free consultation, please call us.
