Illinois car accident lawyers you can trust

Get the legal help you need after a car accident

Car accidents can happen in the blink of an eye, suddenly turning your life upside down with injuries, damage, and legal worries. Insurance companies may encourage you to settle without contacting an attorney, but are you sure that will cover your medical bills, car repairs, and lost wages? If you’ve been in a wreck, retaining our team of skilled, experienced car accident lawyers is the best way to ensure you receive compensation to cover all your costs.

LeFante Law Offices, P.C. is a legal company that takes pride in representing individuals who have been in accidents or suffered injuries through the fault of others. As Personal Injury Lawyers, we are dedicated to pursuing justice for our clients and ensuring they receive fair compensation for their losses.

WRONGFUL DEATH

Losing a loved one due to wrongful death can be an excruciatingly painful experience, and as a Wrongful Death Lawyer, we understand the devastating impact it can have on a family. Whether the loss was caused by an on-the-job accident, a motor vehicle accident, or medical malpractice, we are committed to fighting for the rights of our clients and holding the responsible party accountable. We know that the criminal justice system can be daunting, but with our experienced team of lawyers, we ensure that our clients receive a fair trial and that justice is served. We believe that every person is innocent until proven guilty, and it is our duty to protect the innocence of our clients. As a judge once said, “Better ten guilty men go free than one innocent man be wrongly convicted.” We stand by this principle and work tirelessly to defend the rights of the innocent and ensure that those who are guilty are held responsible for their actions.

From bills to college funds, death can change the entire landscape of a family’s finances. Monetary compensation can go a long way in helping to provide for the spouse, children, and other family members that are left behind.

If you have lost a loved one in a wrongful death accident, you need representation that will handle all legal matters and aggressively pursue the party or parties at fault. At LeFante Law Offices, P.C. of Peoria, we know there is nothing we can do to bring your loved one back. We also understand that monetary damages are a hollow means of restitution and provide little comfort. They are, however, the only legal means of restitution for these types of injuries. We seek these damages on behalf of our clients as a token of justice for the loved one who is gone, and our mission is to obtain full compensation for your family and hold those responsible for the death of your loved one accountable.

WORKERS’ COMPENSATION

The workplace can be a very dangerous place. Every year, thousands of workers are injured on the job, some very seriously, others fatally. The workers’ compensation system was designed to ensure workers are protected financially in the event of a workplace injury. At Lefante Law Offices, P.C., we have award-winning personal injury lawyers who handle personal injury cases of all types. When you are injured at work, you are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits regardless of fault. Benefits are paid by your employer’s workers’ compensation insurance.
If you’ve been injured at work, it’s important to seek the help of a Workers Comp Lawyer to ensure that you receive the compensation and support you deserve. While your employer is required to provide workers’ compensation benefits, the process of obtaining them can be complex and difficult to navigate on your own. Our team of experienced lawyers is here to provide you with the defense you need and to gather the evidence necessary to support your claim. We understand that a workplace injury can be a traumatic experience, and we are here to guide you through everything, from filing the initial claim to representing you in court if necessary. As a victim of a workplace injury, you have rights, and we are committed to fighting for those rights and ensuring that you receive the compensation you deserve.

BRAIN INJURY

DO YOU NEED A BRAIN INJURY LAWYER?

What is a brain injury?

The brain can be hurt any time an injury or impact causes the brain to hit the inside of the skull, as frequently happens in car accidents when the head is stopped while still in motion. The skull doesn’t have to be fractured or penetrated for a brain injury to occur. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can be present even without visible exterior wounds to the head. The brain can also be injured in situations that don’t involve an impact, such as when the brain suffers a loss of blood or restricted oxygen.

TRUCK ACCIDENTS

Truck accidents can be some of the most devastating on the road, often causing severe injuries and even death. If you or a loved one has been involved in a truck accident, it’s important to seek the help of an experienced Truck Accident Lawyer who can help you fight for your rights and secure the compensation you deserve. Without skilled representation, you will likely be ineffective in gathering the evidence needed to successfully fight for compensation.

The improper operation of large trucks and tractor-trailers on Illinois roads is the cause of hundreds of catastrophic accidents and fatalities each year. When trucking regulations are ignored, these massive vehicles can cause immense damage. James P. LeFante will use his experience defending truck drivers from accident claims to aggressively fight for your rights.

MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS

Motorcycle accidents are among the most brutal on the road, often resulting in the death of riders and passengers. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, motorcyclists are 35 times more likely to experience a deadly accident on the road than those in passenger cars.

At LeFante Law Offices, we understand the unique challenges and risks that motorcyclists face on the road, and we are here to help. Our experienced Motorcycle Accident Lawyers are dedicated to protecting the rights of motorcyclists who have been injured in accidents. We know that even the most careful riders can be involved in accidents that are caused by the negligence or recklessness of other drivers. That’s why we work tirelessly to investigate the details of each case and build a strong case on behalf of our clients.

As a motorcycle enthusiast, James P. LeFante of LeFante Law Offices, P.C., understands the risks of riding. Even with safety helmets, motorcyclists are exposed to the elements without the benefit of airbags and thousands of pounds of protective metal around them.

   My claim was handled promptly, professionally, and very quickly. I could not ask for anything more from a law office. It is refreshing in this day and age to find people who are honest and willing to do anything they have to do to help a complete stranger out.

While I hope the day never happens, if I ever face another injury that warrants a claim I will not hesitate to contact your office again.

Thank you!

   This was my second experience requiring a lawyer for a personal injury, and Lefante Law Office is the best decision I could have ever made. The difference between the 2 local firms I used (first was strong law office). Lefante Law blew it out of the water. I cannot begin to express my gratitude to Jim and his team. If you want a lawyer who truly cares and fights tooth and nail for what you deserve, go with Lefante Law Office. I'm thrilled with how well he was able to resolve my case. I will recommend this man for life! Do yourself a favor and give him a call!

   It has been a pleasure having this team fighting for me! They have handled several cases for me and my children, under 18, and have helped me get tripled what the insurance company offered.  I am glad I chose to continue doing business with this law firm.  I got more respect and more answers. At times, I felt like I was being a hassle to them, but they always treated me with care and respect.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone on the team!

   LeFante law offices addressed a work related injury that occurred May 2021. My former place of employment stopped paying the medical bills that continued to roll in. Everyone at LeFante was very friendly and responsive to all of my calls and e-mails. The outcome was very successful and everything has now been paid in addition to a savings for future medical bills I will incur due to the injury.
