Auto Accidents

Auto accidents in Chicago are not uncommon. Motor vehicle accidents can cause extreme physical injury to victims. And as most auto accident attorneys in Chicago and elsewhere will tell you, in addition to physical pain and suffering, these injured victims must deal with large and unforeseen medical bills, lost wages, and emotional trauma. Most often, auto accidents are caused by a driver's negligence or recklessness. But in some cases, vehicle design flaws can contribute to the accident. For example, in SUV rollover accidents, faulty original equipment, or after-market equipment could be to blame. To learn more, contact the Law Offices of Michael D. Mannis.

Truck Accident

A trucking accident occurs when large trucks (10,000+ lbs.) collide with other vehicles or pedestrians. Around 500,000 trucking accidents occur every year in the United States. Of these, approximately 5,000 trucking accidents result in fatalities. In fact, one out of every eight traffic fatalities involves a trucking accident.

Most of the deaths and injuries involve the passengers of vehicles; truck drivers usually escape trucking accidents with little or no personal injury.

Due to the large size of trucks, a trucking accident can greatly endanger the lives of other smaller vehicles unnecessarily when truck operators fail to consider proper trucking accident prevention.

If you or your loved ones have been injured in an accident involving trucks, or any kind of automobile, learn about your legal rights by filling out our Free Case Evaluation Form. A lawyer specializing in truck accident litigation in your area will evaluate your case at no cost. To learn more, contact the Law Offices of Michael D. Mannis. 

Motorcycle Accidents

Unfortunately motorcycle accidents in Chicago are also very common. Riding a motorcycle poses serious risks-without the physical protection cars offer. Motorcyclists are more susceptible to serious injury posed by other drivers, defective roadway design, harsh weather conditions, and product defects. Victims may sustain broken limbs, road rash, traumatic brain injuries, and other harm, including death. In fact, in 2000 alone, 2,862 motorcyclists were killed, and another 58,000 were injured. If motorcyclists do survive their crashes, they may face large medical bills, job loss, permanent disability, and other hardships. the Law Offices of Michael D. Mannis is exceptionally trained in handling cases involving motorcycle accidents in Chicago. If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle accident, we can help.

Vehicle Rollovers & Tire Defects

Insurance industry statistics show that people in all but the heaviest SUVs have higher death rates in single-vehicle accidents, mostly due to vehicle rollover. Rollovers accounted for more than 10,000 fatalities in the United States in 1999, which is more than side and rear impact crashes combined. SUV rollovers accounted for 36% of all fatal crashes in the year 2000.

Tire manufacturers have known that a leading cause of tire tread or belt separation is due to the design and placements of the belts and overlying tread. Tread and belt separations can occur due to poor adhesion of the components from the use of old and expired adhesives, curing at improper temperatures, unclean manufacturing facilities or foreign objects in the tires such as rust, moisture, oxidation, grease and sawdust.

If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in a vehicle rollover or as a result of a defective tire or tire tread separation, then you may have the right to file a legal action. To learn more, contact the Law Offices of Michael D. Mannis.
