Injury victims in Joliet, IL, often face overwhelming challenges after an accident, including mounting medical bills, lost wages, and emotional distress.
At Staver Accident Injury Lawyers, we help you secure the maximum compensation you deserve. Our Joliet personal injury lawyers have extensive experience recovering personal injury damages, ensuring you’re fully covered for visible and hidden losses.
You may wonder if pursuing compensation is worthwhile when you're injured due to someone else’s negligence.
Many believe insurance companies will offer a fair settlement, but they often present low offers to settle quickly. An experienced Joliet personal injury lawyer can help you understand the true value of your claim. While hiring an attorney isn't required, having one can greatly improve your chances of receiving the compensation you deserve.
Insurance companies often offer low settlements that don't cover your full medical bills, lost wages, or suffering. Our Joliet personal injury attorneys work tirelessly to maximize your claim, ensuring you recover compensation for both past and future expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Dealing with insurance companies while recovering can be overwhelming. Insurers often pressure you to accept low settlements. Our Joliet injury lawyers handle all communication and negotiations, ensuring your rights are protected and you receive a fair settlement.
Insurance companies often avoid trial due to costs, but may not take your claim seriously if you aren’t willing to go to court. Hiring an experienced lawyer signals you're ready to fight for fair compensation. If negotiations fail, we're prepared to file a lawsuit in Will County Circuit Court, ensuring your case is taken seriously and your interests are fully represented. We manage the entire legal process, so you don’t have to.
At Staver Accident Injury Lawyers, we can help you with virtually any personal injury situation, but we have particularly broad experience with motor vehicle accidents.
Car accident cases require a lot of evidence gathering. Police reports, debris fields, and eyewitness accounts require a special set of investigative skills that we’ve honed for over 20 years. We know all the insurance companies. And they know we mean business. We know you’re hurting. When you call, you’ll always speak with a Staver attorney, not an assistant.
If you were in an accident involving a commercial truck, know they are handled very differently. It’s like comparing apples and oranges. For example, commercial trucks are required by federal law to carry a substantial amount of insurance, which can be helpful during your claim. Data can also be collected immediately from the electronic control modules (the black box).

Between dealing with insurance companies, arranging medical care, and repairing or replacing damaged property, it’s easy to feel lost.
At Staver, we are here to guide you through every step of your personal injury claim..
A strong personal injury claim begins with a comprehensive investigation. At Staver Accident Injury Lawyers, we gather essential evidence such as police reports, medical records, witness statements, and photos or videos of the accident scene. For complex cases, we may also collaborate with experts to reconstruct the incident and prove liability, ensuring we clearly understand how the other party’s negligence caused your injuries.
This meticulous approach allows us to build a solid foundation for your claim. Whether negotiating with insurance companies or preparing for court, we ensure that all the evidence needed to secure the compensation you deserve is in place from the start.
| Next Step: Repair or ReplaceAfter an injury, whether from a car accident or another incident, you might be left with damaged property, such as your vehicle. We know how important it is to get back on track quickly. Our team will ensure that your property is repaired or replaced as soon as possible. If you need a temporary solution, such as a rental vehicle, we’ll help arrange it while your claim is processed.
| Next Step: Deal with InsuranceThe insurance claims process often means piles of paperwork and endless phone calls from insurance adjusters. Our Joliet personal injury attorneys take this burden off your shoulders by handling all interactions with the insurance company. We are well-versed in managing these claims and can anticipate potential issues. By handling the paperwork, negotiations, and legal complexities, we significantly increase your chances of securing a fair settlement.
| Next Step: Settlement OfferInsurance companies may deny your claim or offer a low settlement amount. If your claim is denied, they will provide a written explanation, which we will review in detail. We can discuss appealing the denial or pursuing your compensation in court from there. If you receive a settlement offer, we’ll carefully evaluate it to ensure it covers all your damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. If the offer is insufficient, we’ll make a counter-demand and continue negotiating.
| Next Step: NegotiationsOnce your claim is filed, the insurance company will likely carry out its own investigation. They may send an adjuster to assess the scene or your injuries, often leading to a low-ball offer. It’s important not to accept the first offer without consulting us. Our attorneys are experienced negotiators who will leverage the evidence gathered from the accident or injury to fight for the compensation you truly deserve. We know what’s at stake and won’t back down until you’re fairly compensated.
| Next Step: Settle or TrialMost personal injury cases in Joliet are settled without a trial. However, if the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, we are fully prepared to take your case to court. While only a small percentage of cases go to trial, having an experienced attorney on your side is crucial. We’ll guide you through the trial process, ensuring your case is presented clearly and persuasively to a judge and jury.
| Next Step: Crash InvestigationYour top priority after any type of injury should always be to seek medical care. Don’t skip out because you think your injury is minor or you’re afraid of the cost. We’ll pursue compensation for all your medical bills.
The local hospitals in Joliet are AMITA Health St. Joseph Medical Center (Level II Trauma Center). For emergencies and ongoing treatment, try Veterans Affairs Outpatient Clinic & DuPage Medical Group.
After an injury, follow up and complete the police report, as it’s critical evidence for your personal injury case. It’s also essential to collect and organize all medical records related to your injury, including doctor’s notes, treatment plans, and bills. Tracking your financial losses, such as lost wages and out-of-pocket expenses, is also vital.
Documenting the full impact of your injuries on your physical health, finances, and overall quality of life will help strengthen your claim and ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
