Our Firm - Personal Injury Representation
Can You Win Your Case? Your Choices Matter
Individuals who have suffered a serious personal injury face all-too-common hardships while seeking restitution. At best, the road towards compensation can be described as disheartening; at its worse, defeating.
The difference lies in an individual’s ability to obtain early consultation with an attorney qualified to prosecute (if necessary) a trial on their behalf within a committed firm that possesses both the support teams and financial resources to see their case through to a just and successful conclusion.
The path to compensation for medical expenses, time off work, short term or permanent disabilities, and pain and suffering is typically littered with denial of responsibility. As financial hardships mount, the injured and/or their families are forced into unfair and low settlement agreements.
Unfortunately, the groundwork for defeat is laid early on as defense attorneys and insurance companies with endless resources to pay for years of delays carefully manipulate your words, your actions, the facts of your case and extent of your injuries, and ultimately, your rights.
The lives of the injured – or more appropriately, the worth of their lives -- becomes a point of negotiation; reduced in value by corporations, their insurance companies, and the law firms hired to defend such adversaries against damages until the injured and the needs of their families are forced into desperate submission.
Justice is Not a Privilege ...
And lives are not to be bartered.
" We belive justice is an individual right …it’s your right."
This is our battlefield; where no entity is too big, no case too difficult to prosecute.
Managing partner and lead trial attorney, Clifford Horwitz and Jay Luchsinger, have not lost a case either has taken to trial in over seventeen years, a claim few firms can match.
Concentrating on cases of serious personal injury throughout the state of Illinois, Horwitz, Horwitz & Associates believes that justice is an individual right …it’s your right.
While many personal injury firms, large and small, are eager to quickly settle cases out of court for reduced compensation, it’s often not in the best interest of the client to do so. Settlements of this nature are typically encouraged as a means to reduce the firm’s outlay of resources (money and staff time) necessary to successfully take a case to trial.
Merit and Integrity Determine Case Acceptance
At Horwitz, Horwitz & Associates, cases are accepted for representation based upon their merit and integrity, not their ease of prosecution, and are aggressively pursued to the fullest extent of the law. Our reputation was built, in part, upon the successful prosecution of some of the toughest cases on state record.
“Our focus is your right to full and just compensation.”
Our focus is your right to full and just compensation. Two experienced attorneys are appointed to every trial, supported by a team of highly trained professionals.
We look forward to the opportunity for a negotiated settlement out of court when an opponent agrees to satisfy the needs of our client, but prepare nonetheless for an aggressive trial on your behalf. We prepare to win and commit to that end, regardless the time and costs involved, or the size of the potential recovery.
Easing the Cost of Litigation
In most cases, our clients find it beneficial to enter into a contingent fee arrangement, which requires no up-front fees. In cases of a contingent agreement, our firm will advance all the costs associated with your case through its conclusion and there is never a fee unless recovery is made.
