We have all encountered scenes of auto accidents while driving to or from work or while out running errands, where the police direct traffic while paramedics tend to those injured. While we do not expect these types of accidents to happen to us, even the most experienced and careful of drivers are at risk. At the SAM LAW OFFICE, LLC, we know that car crashes and collisions are a regular occurrence on roads throughout Illinois, and we understand the kinds of severe and potentially life-threatening injuries that can result. Our Barrington, Illinois auto accident attorney provides caring, comprehensive legal representation when you or a loved one is involved in all types of accidents, and can assist you in getting the compensation you need to recover.  

How Our Barrington Auto Accident Attorney Can Assist You

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) claims that more than six million auto accidents are reported each year on roads and highways throughout the country, resulting in serious injuries for as many as two million people. Accidents can occur as the result of road, traffic, and weather conditions, as well as from automobile defects, such as faulty brakes and poor tire traction. At the same time, the NHTSA advises that the most common causes of most accidents is reckless and dangerous behavior on the part of other drivers. Common types of driving behaviors that can lead to car accidents and injuries include the following:

  • Going too fast for conditions;
  • Disobeying traffic rules and regulations, such as speeding or running red lights;
  • Engaging in aggressive driving behaviors, such as tailgating other drivers and making improper turns;
  • Distracted driving behaviors, including using cell phones or texting;
  • Drowsy driving, which includes falling asleep behind the wheel;
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol or other intoxicating substances, including prescription and over-the-counter medications.

Under Illinois law (625 ILCS 5/7-203), drivers are required to maintain a minimum amount of liability insurance coverage to cover any injuries that result in an accident. Unfortunately, not all drivers obey this law, and those with a history of driving accidents often are more likely to drive uninsured. At the SAM LAW OFFICE, LLC, we can assist you in getting compensation for any property damages and injuries you have suffered as the result of an accident, either through an insurance company claim or by filing a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf.

These accidents result in serious injuries for more than 61,000 people, while claiming the lives of close to 1,000 others. Painful, potentially disabling, and even life-threatening injuries that can occur in car crashes and collisions include the following:

  • Muscle and tendon strains, sprains, and tears;
  • Broken bones and multiple fractures;
  • Severe cuts, bruises, and lacerations;
  • Damage to body organs and internal bleeding;
