Our Country Club Hills Personal Injury Practice Areas
Our Country Club Hills personal injury attorneys want to hear from you no matter how your injury occurred. We would like the opportunity to evaluate your case and determine how we can help. We will present you with all your options and let you know what to expect in the days and weeks to come.
Call us if you were injured in any of the following ways:
Car Accidents
In the Chicago Metro area, the constant gridlock creates the opportunity for collisions. With too many cars occupying too little space, accidents are inevitable. Some of them are severe, leading to major bodily injury and substantial property damage.
Regardless of how your car accident occurred, you still may be able to pursue compensation from the other driver and their insurance company—even if you were partly responsible for the accident. The Kryder Law Group can investigate your accident and let you know exactly what to expect.
Truck Accidents
If your accident involved an 18-wheeler, we may be able to go after both the truck driver and the trucking company for damages. Under Illinois’s vicarious liability laws, many employers are legally and financially responsible for the damage caused by their workers on the job.
Motorcycle Accidents
Two things are fairly common among most motorcycle accidents. One, the motorcyclist suffers the most damage of anyone in the crash due to the lack of vehicle frame or protective features on a motorcycle. Two, someone other than the motorcyclist is at least partly responsible for the collision. We will go after that party and their insurance company and help you collect the compensation you deserve.
Medical Malpractice
If you were injured under the care of a doctor or healthcare provider, we can investigate and determine if their mistakes constituted malpractice. If so, we will aggressively pursue compensation from the provider and the facility on your behalf.
Slip and Fall
If you slipped and fell on someone else’s property, we can go after the property owner, the property manager, and related third-parties. Under 740 ILCS 130, owners and managers are liable when guests get injured on their property due to dangerous or hazardous conditions that should have been addressed.
Workers’ Compensation
Under Illinois law, most private employers must provide their employees with workers’ compensation coverage, which enables them to file a claim for benefits if they get hurt on the job. In exchange, the employee is barred in most cases from filing a lawsuit against their employer over the injury.
When workers’ compensation works as it should, everyone wins. But when it does not—an all-too-common occurrence—it is usually the worker, not the employer, who gets treated unfairly.
Before you file a workers’ comp claim, talk to a lawyer from The Kryder Law Group. A Country Club Hills injury lawyer will help you get out in front of any potential issues that might keep you from recovering the compensation you deserve.
Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect
We expect our loved ones will be safe and comfortable in nursing homes. It can be jarring to hear some of the statistics of the prevalence of nursing home abuse and neglect in the United States.
If you suspect your loved one has been a victim of abuse at their Country Club Hills nursing home, do not hesitate to speak up, even if you are not 100% sure. It is better to be wrong than to stay silent while your loved one suffers.
The Value of Your Personal Injury Claim in Country Club Hills
The Kryder Law Group may be able to help you recover a settlement or award that includes compensation for the following damages and more:
- Current and future medical bills

You may be able to pursue other types of damages, depending on your circumstances.
The Statute of Limitations
735 ILCS 5/13-202 imposes a two-year statute of limitations on personal injury claims in Country Club Hills. This statute sets the amount of time you have, starting from the date of your injury, to take legal action. It is important to note that several extenuating circumstances may affect this timeline, so talk to a lawyer as soon as possible after your injury to make sure you are doing everything you need in the proper timeframe to recover compensation.
