We Help Injury Victims Hold Negligent Parties Accountable
When you are injured because of someone else’s negligence, it would be safe to assume that the responsible party will do the right thing and ensure you get your life back to the way it was before your injury. Unfortunately, that is rarely the case, and the person or company that caused your serious injuries will often do everything in their power to avoid paying what is owed.
That’s where Abdallah Law comes in.
Our experienced personal injury attorneys have a proven track record of ensuring our clients get the compensation they are owed, allowing them to concentrate on healing instead of trying to get their medical expenses paid.

What is a Personal Injury Claim?
When a person suffers injuries caused by another person’s or company’s actions, they may need help paying their medical expenses, recovering their lost income, and paying other expenses incurred as a result of the injury. When the responsible party shirks their responsibility or they only give a low-ball offer with a “take it or leave it” attitude, the next step is often filing a personal injury claim.
A personal injury claim is a legal dispute that arises when a person suffers harm from an accident or injury, and someone else might be legally responsible for that harm. Compensation can cover a range of costs associated with damages that result from the injury or long-term health complications caused by the injury.
Legal representation is often necessary to build a strong personal injury case.
What Are Damages?
Damages are monetary compensation awarded to a person who has suffered injuries due to another person’s unlawful act or negligence. They come in two forms: economic damages and non-economic damages.
Economic Damages
These types of damages are fairly easy to verify because they come with bills, receipts, estimates, and invoices, as well as medical records. They often include:
- Medical bills for past and future treatment
- Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
- Rehabilitation and therapy costs
- Property damage, like damaged vehicles or personal belongings
- Out-of-pocket expenses
Non-Economic Damages
These types of damages are harder to verify. They often require testimony from healthcare professionals and expert witnesses. They may include:
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Loss of companionship or consortium
- Disfigurement or physical impairment

Why Should You Seek Legal Representation As Soon As Possible?
It may be tempting to wait until you get a trial date or learn the severity of your charges before speaking with an attorney. While you’re waiting, the prosecutor is building up a case strong enough to seek conviction. Waiting to talk with a lawyer gives the prosecution a head start and gives your defense attorney less time to build up a strong defense. Do you really want to risk your freedom and reputation with a wait-and-see approach?
Collecting evidence, speaking with witnesses, and gathering the information needed to build a strong defense case takes time. Often more time than you would think. Our team has extensive experience fighting for our client’s rights and protecting them from bogus criminal charges.
Don’t wait for a trial date, don’t wait to see how bad the punishment for your charges will be, call a defense attorney as soon as you are charged with a crime, or even sooner if you feel like the cops are trying to build a case against you. Call 312-229-0008 to speak with an attorney who will fight for your rights!
