Providing the Help You Need to Get Back on Your Feet

Collinsville, Illinois, Personal Injury Lawyer

If you have suffered a injury as the result of someone else's negligence, including an accident involving an uninsured or underinsured driver, here are a couple immediate steps you should take:

• Seek proper medical treatment: Your health should be your first priority. Injuries are often more serious than they originally appear. A medical professional can assess, treat and make a record of your injuries.
• Contact a Lawyer: Don't speak with an insurance company until you have secured the representation of a skilled attorney. Insurance companies have attorneys working on their side, and they are not looking out for your best interests. Let a professional deal with them.
• Follow up with your medical treatment: I cannot stress this enough. It is vitally important that you follow up and complete any medical treatment suggested or requested by your medical providers, even if you feel you are no longer injured or are feeling much better. This will both help you recover from your injuries to the fullest extent possible, as well as help your legal claim.

I have over 35 years legal experience with injury claims, and I have spent the past 25 years at Gnavi Law Offices, P.C., helping people receive the compensation they need to properly recover from their injuries, or to which they are entitled because of those injuries. To discuss your injuries, e-mail me or call 618-623-4351.

No Fee Unless You Receive Compensation

You may be eligible to recover damages for medical expenses, lost wages and pain and suffering, as well as disabilities, physical restrictions, disfigurement and the effect of the injury on your life.
