Truck Accident-Related Losses That May Entitle You to Compensation
Our legal team will investigate your accident to identify all of your losses. Upon identifying those losses, we calculate their cost. The following categories of losses can entitle you to a financial recovery:
Healthcare Costs
Medical costs may be among the most costly losses that you suffer. Our team will seek total coverage for medical expenses, including:
Hospitalization
Emergency services
Medications
Surgery
Anesthesia
Diagnostic imaging scans
Follow-up care
Rehabilitative services
Medical equipment for the home, vehicle, and person
We project the cost of any future medical care that you may require.
Expenses Related to Your Mental Health
BMJ Open found a connection between psychological distress and motor vehicle accidents, which suggests that you may:
Experience lingering stress as a result of your accident
Succumb to clinical conditions like anxiety or depression
Suffer secondary consequences of emotional and psychological trauma
Require counseling, medication, and other treatment
Our team will help you receive any necessary diagnosis for mental health problems. Emotional and psychological symptoms generally entitle you to coverage, including “pain and suffering.”

In both personal injury and wrongful death cases, victims like you may receive coverage for present and future:
Lost income
Lost productivity
Lost earning power
Lost ability to advance professionally
Lost bonuses and 401k contributions
Your specific professional circumstances are highly relevant. We will pursue coverage for all of your professional losses.

We Know Mount Prospect and the Cook County Area
At our Chicago-based firm, we are familiar with the roadways and traffic conditions of Chicagoland and Cook County. Unfortunately, serious trucking accidents are not uncommon – and we know how to handle these complex accident types.
As the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) notes, nearly 53% of all large truck accidents for the state of Illinois were recorded within Cook County in 2014. To demonstrate the significance of the issue, only 29.5% of annual vehicle miles for the state are accounted for within Cook County.
We will use our knowledge of the Mount Prospect area to gather compelling evidence for you and make your case.
Are There Upfront Costs Required to Hire The Kryder Law Group, LLC?
No. We offer a contingency-fee arrangement that serves every client regardless of their financial position.
Contingency fees:
Allow you to avoid paying upfront or out of pocket
Do not impose the financial strain of hourly or flat attorney fees
A contingency fee means that you only pay us if we win your case. If we are successful, we receive a portion of your judgment or settlement. This portion covers the cost of handling your case. You receive the rest.
