Managing the Complicated Web of Insurance Coverage

If you were a passenger injured in an auto accident, you are likely confused about where to turn for help. You may be unsure of whether you can or should file a claim with the insurance company of the driver whose vehicle you were riding in or the insurance company the other driver(s) in the accident. At Ankin Law, we will discuss the circumstances of the auto accident that led to your passengers injuries in order to determine where liability may be attached and how to file an appropriate claim for financial recovery.

When more than one driver could potentially be responsible for your passenger injuries, the situation can become further complicated because multiple insurance companies are involved, each claiming the minimum level of liability.  At Ankin Law, our Chicago auto accident attorneys focus on representing victims of auto accidents and working with insurance companies in order to obtain the most favorable recovery possible for our clients.

Our skilled Chicago auto accident attorneys work to counteract the formulaic approach applied by most insurance companies when determining compensation by advocating on your behalf so that you can receive the compensation that you deserve.
