- Automobile Accident

The roads and highways covering Chicago and indeed all of Illinois can be a dangerous place for motorists. Every year over 1,200 Illinois residents lose their lives in automobile accidents and countless more are injured – some so seriously that their lives are never the same again. If you or someone you love has been seriously injured in a car, truck, bus, or motorcycle accident, we offer you not only over 14 years of litigation experience but also a promise that if we are not able to make a recovery in your case, you won’t owe us a dime.

If you need help defending yourself after a serious slip and fall accident in Illinois, our lawyers have dedicated the last 14 years of their lives to defending the rights of people just like you, and our extensive experience with slip and fall accident injury cases will ensure that you receive the justice you deserve.

- Wrongful Death Lawsuits

When a family member is killed in any kind of accident there is a potential for a wrongful death case. The liability of the person responsible for the death is determined by the law for that type of case, such as for car accidents, truck accidents, slip and fall cases, FELA cases, construction accidents, medical malpractice cases, and any other type of case involving an unsafe product or other case which results in fatal injuries. Our law firm helps families who have been the victims of accidents which have resulted in the loss of a family member. Illinois wrongful death law provides rights to families victimized by the negligence of others.

- Construction Accidents

Identification of facts which help develop a liability lawsuit against the responsible parties is one of the benefits of hiring a firm such as the Law Offices of Barry G. Doyle, P.C. Our background in handling these kinds of cases gives us insight into the contractual obligations of the contractors on the site to ensure worker safety. Further, our understanding of OSHA regulations and construction industry safety customs and practices allows us to help juries understand why blame for the accident rests upon the proper parties and not upon the injured worker.

- Motorcycle Crashes

Motorcycle riders face especially difficult challenges in operating -- both on the road and in the legal system. Every year, thousands of motorcycle riders are hit by drivers of cars or trucks who simply do not see the motorcyclist. Once their cases get to court, they must face skeptical juries who often wrongly perceive motorcycle riders as risk-takers and daredevils. In short, riders deserve experienced representation from an attorney who understands the special nature of motorcycle accidents. Our motorcycle crash lawyers stand ready to help injured motorcycle riders and their families in dealing with the special challenges presented in motorcycle accident lawsuits.

- Trucking Accidents

When a serious truck crash happens, trucking companies have teams of investigators there immediately to help protect their rights. Victims of unsafe truck drivers and trucking companies deserve the same protection. Our firm stands ready to assist the victims of serious truck accidents and their families.

- Dog Bite Attacks

Our law firm represents the victims of dog bites and other animal attacks. Victims of dog bites deserve experienced, aggressive, compassionate lawyers to protect their rights and get them the compensation they deserve.

- Lawsuits and Claims against the CTA

Trying to recover compensation from the Chicago Transit Authority after a bus accident, train accident, or a fall on CTA property can be surprisingly complicated and present traps for the unwary, as the CTA was the beneficiary of a special statute which has resulted in the dismissal of many otherwise meritorious cases against the CTA. Because of the complexity of a CTA notice of claim, it is strongly recommended that people with serious injuries contact an experienced bus accident attorney such as the bus and el train accident lawyers at our firm.

- Train Accidents

Trains are a hazardous means of transporting people and goods. Whether serious injuries or wrongful deaths result from a train crash or derailment or a railroad grade crossing crash, expect railroads to defend themselves aggressively. To get the compensation you deserve, have one of our train crash and derailment lawyers by your side today.

- Prescription Medication Errors/Pharmacist Malpractice

Every year, thousands are injured as a result of errors made by pharmacists in dispensing prescription medications and in failing to check for drug interactions. Victims of pharmacist malpractice can look to our law firm to help them get the compensation they deserve.

- FELA

Railroad workers have special protections under the FELA, or Federal Employer's Liability Act. With FELA, injured workers can collect benefits that will help them cover medical bills and lost wages following a railroad accident. We will help you fight for the FELA benefits you deserve. To make a successful claim, we will show that negligence on the part of the railroad or co-workers was a factor in your injury. In the event that negligence on the injured person's part was a contributing factor in the accident, he may still be able to recover damages. We will also demonstrate that the negligence caused your injury and resulted in financial loss.

- Medical Malpractice

Few types of personal injury cases are as complex and difficult as medical malpractice cases. We are ready to assist those who have suffered truly significant injuries or the wrongful death of a family member in medical malpractice lawsuits against doctors, hospitals, nursing homes, and other health care institutions.

- Dangerous Children's Products

Every year thousands of children are injured by products intended for their use. Many parents assume that manufacturers will adequately test the products and will not put them on the market if they are unsafe or hazardous, but the reality is that many have deliberately put products on store shelves that they knew were unsafe. Our law firm represents children who are injured by unsafe products and their families.

- Dangerous Prescription Medications

Thousands of users of prescription medications have been injured by side effects which drug manufacturers have concealed or discounted. Our law firm stands ready to help people who have been injured by dangerous prescription drugs such as fosamax, duragesic patches, reglan, hyrdoxycut, levaquin, chantix, amiodarone, and other medications.

- Dangerous Industrial Products

Every day, in industries ranging from manufacturing to construction to retail sales, American workers use powerful machinery to help them do their jobs. Unfortunately, some are injured due to dangerous and defective equipment. When a worker is injured as a result of dangerous equipment, we stand ready to investigate how the dangerous product caused the worker's injuries and to hold the manufacturers accountable.

- Unsafe Automobiles and Other Motor Vehicles

The most important things your car should do is get you to your destination safely. Unfortunately, flaws in the design or manufacture of cars can cause an accident or fail to properly protect the driver or passengers in the car when there is an accident. When this happens and severe injuries or death results, we are ready to help.

- Dangerous, Tainted, and Unsafe Food Products

Unsafe and unsanitary food handling and food preparation practices are the cause of thousands of deadly illnesses such as salmonella and e-coli each year. While public health departments take the lead in getting dangerous, tainted, and unsafe food off the shelves by ordering recalls, victims of food poisoning and food-borne illnesses need legal representation to get the compensation they deserve.
