Practice Areas

Practice Areas Description

- Personal Injury

For more than 55 years, the Chicago personal injury attorneys of the law firm of Anesi, Ozmon, Rodin, Novak & Kohen, Ltd have concentrated their practice in the representation of Illinois victims of personal injury and wrongful death. Our clients come to us when they have encountered tragedy or a disabling injury and are experiencing the resulting upheaval that often changes their lives.

- Construction Accidents

Construction sites are frequently the location of serious on-the-job injuries in Illinois. After a construction accident, it is important to coordinate the workers' compensation claim with any other potential third-party liability injury lawsuit in order to maximize recovery of optimal benefits for the injured worker. Causes of injury range from steel erection to unsafe scaffolds, from crane accidents to ladder and roof falls to equipment-related failures. A prompt and thorough investigation of a construction accident by our experienced Illinois personal injury lawyers and investigators will reveal any and all causes of the injury or death.

- Workers' Compensation

At the law offices of Anesi, Ozmon, Rodin, Novak & Kohen, Ltd., our Workers' Compensation lawyers are dedicated to protecting the rights of people who suffer injuries at work. The Workers' Compensation Statute protects every employee in the State of Illinois. (Workers' Compensation was once referred to as "workman's Compensation.") The statute provides for benefits that compensate injured employees for lost time from work, medical bills incurred, and any permanent disability.

- Medical Malpractice

Patients entrust their health and medical care to physicians, hospitals, and other health care providers and health maintenance organizations. Inherent in that trust is the expectation that, in rendering care and treatment, medical providers will comply with the appropriate "standards of care." Injuries or death resulting from healthcare professional require the services of a medical malpractice attorney experienced in the complexities of modern medical science and in handling medical cases from investigation through trial.

- Auto Accident

The most common type of negligence involves some form of transportation liability. A drunk driver, a trucker who has fallen asleep at the wheel, or simply the wrongful act of another motorist can forever alter the lives of collision victims and their families. We handle injury claims on behalf of individuals who have been injured in auto accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents and crashes involving public transportation. Mass transportation disasters such as those involving airlines, railroads, or bus companies require immediate action and counsel. Investigation may be warranted into a defective vehicle or its component parts. This requires tenacious investigation of the root cause of a collision in order to secure fair and appropriate compensation for victims' losses.

- Products Liability

All too often, unsafe products make their way into our lives - whether in the workplace, at home, or in recreational activities. Dangerous products can cause life-altering injuries or even death. Dangers associated with products come in many forms. Our attorneys have successfully sued manufacturers of products as diverse as construction equipment, automobiles, medical devices, punch-press machines, cranes, power tools and personal-care products. Product liability claims may arise out of defective design, manufacturing defects, or improper warnings.

- Premises Liability

Premises liability is the area of the law involving injuries caused by a hazardous condition or activity on the property of someone else. The circumstances which may give rise to a claim for money damages can range from injuries caused by slip-and-falls, to sexual assault due to a lack of security, to hazardous activities conducted on a construction site. A premises liability case may include improper maintenance, improper supervision, the failure to contain hazardous substances, improper repairs, or the failure to warn.
