Chicago Personal Injury Attorneys
Compassionate and Trusted Personal Injury Lawyers Serving the Chicago Area
Suffering an injury due to someone else's negligence can be a difficult and overwhelming experience. The physical pain, emotional distress, and financial burden that accompany personal injuries can greatly impact your life. At Schwartz Jambois, our team of skilled personal injury attorneys is committed to helping people in Chicago and throughout Illinois seek the justice and compensation they deserve. We can assist with multiple types of personal injury cases, including:
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Auto accidents are a common cause of serious injuries. Whether you were involved in a car accident, truck accident, motorcycle accident, or pedestrian accident due to another driver's recklessness or carelessness, we understand the challenges you may be facing. Our experienced personal injury attorneys will thoroughly investigate your case, gather evidence such as police reports and witness testimonies, consult with experts if necessary, and build a strong case on your behalf. We will fight for fair compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages resulting from the accident.
Premises Liability
If you have been injured due to hazardous conditions on someone else's property—such as a slip-and-fall incident caused by wet floors, damaged walkways, or other unsafe conditions—you may have grounds for a premises liability claim. Property owners have a duty to maintain safe premises for visitors. Our personal injury attorneys have extensive knowledge of Illinois laws surrounding premises liability cases, and we will work diligently to hold negligent property owners, store or restaurant owners, or others who were responsible for an injury accountable for their failure to protect your safety.

Product Liability
If you have been harmed by a defective product, you may be entitled to compensation through filing a product liability claim or lawsuit against responsible manufacturers, distributors, or retailers. Our Chicago personal injury attorneys have the experience and resources to handle complex product liability cases, including cases involving products that were defectively designed, items that became dangerous because of manufacturing defects, or injuries that occurred because proper warnings or instructions were not provided.
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional's negligence results in harm to a patient. Common forms of medical negligence include misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, birth injuries, and more. Proving that you were injured because of medical malpractice can be challenging without an experienced attorney by your side. At Schwartz Jambois, our lawyers have extensive knowledge of the laws that affect medical procedures and patient injuries in Illinois. We will work tirelessly to hold all responsible parties accountable for their actions, and we will fight for fair compensation on your behalf.
Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect
Elderly people residing in nursing homes or assisted living facilities deserve proper care, respect, and dignity. Unfortunately, instances of neglect, abuse, and other issues affecting residents' health, safety, and well-being are all too common in these facilities. If you suspect that a loved one has been the victim of nursing home abuse or neglect—such as physical abuse from staff members or inadequate medical attention resulting in bedsores or other serious health complications—we can help. Our compassionate personal injury attorneys will investigate the situation thoroughly to gather the evidence necessary to build a compelling case and ensure that a negligent nursing home will be held responsible for the harm your loved one has suffered.
Catastrophic Injuries
A severe injury can forever alter your life. You may experience debilitating pain or disability requiring lifelong medical care, as well as emotional trauma due to a diminished quality of life. You may also experience financial hardship due to mounting medical bills and loss of income. At Schwartz Jambois, our personal injury attorneys understand the immense challenges faced by people who have sustained catastrophic injuries like spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), severe burn injuries, and amputations. We are dedicated advocates for those affected by catastrophic injuries, fighting aggressively to secure compensation for ongoing medical treatment, rehabilitation services, home modifications, and other accommodations needed to maximize your comfort and independence.
Wrongful Death
Losing a loved one as a result of someone else's negligence is an unimaginable tragedy. In wrongful death cases, surviving family members may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses incurred prior to their loved one's passing, funeral costs, loss of income and benefits, loss of companionship, and emotional pain and suffering. Our compassionate personal injury attorneys will handle your wrongful death claim with sensitivity while seeking justice on behalf of your loved one. We are here to provide guidance during this difficult time so that you can focus on grieving and healing.
