White crash damaged after a left turn accident with a blue car
Fault in a left-turn accident in Illinois is often assumed to fall on the driver making the turn, but that is not always the full picture. While Illinois traffic law generally requires left-turning drivers to yield to oncoming traffic, liability can shift depending on speed, signals, and driver behavior at the time of the crash.

Determining who is liable in a multi-vehicle car accident in Illinois is rarely straightforward. Unlike a two-car collision, these accidents often involve a chain of events, multiple drivers, and conflicting accounts of what happened. Liability may be shared, disputed, or shift as more evidence becomes available.

A passenger can sue after a car accident in Illinois. Unlike drivers, passengers are rarely responsible for causing a crash, which often places them in a stronger legal position when seeking compensation. However, the process is not always straightforward. Determining who is liable, which insurance policy applies, and how damages are calculated can all affect the outcome of a claim.

State Farm & Auto Accidents: Your “Good Neighbor” During the COVID-19 Pandemic?

Posted By:

For victims of auto accidents, the word is “No.” In Illinois, auto accident attorneys have learned that State Farm recently circulated an internal email to all of its claims adjustors instructing each of them to only offer up to fifty percent (50%) of the full value of an injured victim’s claim. Why? Since the Coronavirus pandemic has closed the Courts (except for emergencies), State Farm is thinking that attorneys for car accident victims are “strapped for cash” and will “settle short” because they cannot push their cases to trial. So, State Farm is gambling that your accident attorney will “settle short” of full value. Ah, don’t you love your neighbor?

At Grazian & Volpe, we’re ready, willing and able to weather the storm. Our last three (3) auto accident settlements against negligent drivers who were insured by State Farm Auto Insurance Company were for State Farm’s $100,000.00 policy limits—and that’s exactly the amount we won for our clients. Nothing short. Our attorneys work hard to make sure that our clients obtain full and fair compensation and nothing less. Unlike auto accident law firms, we have the financial resources to weather the storm. We’re here to help!

This has serious implications for victims of vehicle motor accidents. If you’ve just been in a traumatic car accident and were injured, you should not have to worry about whether your attorney is going to settle short for cash. You should have the confidence that your attorney is on your side and isn’t going to settle for anything less than what you are due.
