What does an old knee injury have to do with a shoulder injury from a car accident? The defense may still ask about it.

Stephen J. Phillips, a partner at Phillips Law Offices, explains how defense attorneys may examine previous injuries to shift attention toward the injured person—and why your attorney needs to know your medical history.

Being open with your lawyer helps them anticipate these questions and prepare you for a deposition or trial.

An insurance company offered you a settlement after an accident. Should you take it?

Not so fast.

Attorney Alec D. Mesrobian explains why an early settlement offer may not reflect the full value of your claim—and why what you post on social media after an accident can matter more than you think.

Before accepting an offer or posting about your accident, understand how those decisions could affect your case.

When someone passes away because of another party’s negligence, Illinois law may allow two separate types of claims—but they compensate for different losses.

In this video, Phillips Law Offices Partner Stephen Phillips explains:

• How a survival action addresses the losses experienced by the injured person before their death
• How a wrongful-death claim addresses the losses suffered by the surviving spouse and next of kin
• Why both claims may be important when evaluating a case

Every case is different. If your family has lost a loved one because of someone else’s negligence, understanding your legal options is an important first step.

What happens if the driver who caused your accident doesn’t have insurance?

Phillips Law Offices attorney Alec D. Mesrobian answers two frequently asked questions:

• What is uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage?

Your own auto insurance policy may provide important protection when the at-fault driver has no insurance—or not enough insurance to cover your losses.
