Representation in DuPage County Personal Injury Cases

In a split second, an accident can change the course of your life. Everything you know about your daily routine can suddenly change. Many accident victims end up missing weeks or months of work, and they may face huge medical bills that are often not covered by insurance. Accident victims deserve better than this. Fotopoulos Law Office handles a wide range of DuPage County personal injury cases on behalf of accident victims and their families, including those involving:

• Car accidents - We provide assistance for those who have been injured by negligent drivers, helping them receive compensation for injuries and property damage sustained in a collision.
• Motorcycle wrecks - We work with motorcycle riders who have been hurt in accidents due to other drivers’ failure to protect their safety.
• Truck crashes - We understand how devastating collisions with 18-wheelers and other commercial vehicles can be, and we work to hold negligent truck drivers and trucking companies responsible for injuries sustained by truck accident victims.
• Pedestrian and bicycle accidents - We represent pedestrians who have been struck by negligent drivers and cyclists who have been hurt due to drivers’ failure to share the road safely.
• Medical malpractice - We understand the complexity of cases involving injuries caused by the mistakes of medical professionals, and we work to hold negligent healthcare providers accountable for their failure to provide proper care.
• Nursing home abuse and neglect - We work to help families address situations in which elderly nursing home residents have experienced issues affecting their health due to the negligence of a facility or its staff.
• Construction accidents - Construction sites are often dangerous places, and we work to protect the rights of workers who have been injured due to negligence or unsafe conditions.
• Workplace injuries - Workers have the right to a safe and healthy workplace, and we fight for those who have been injured due to an employer’s negligence or the failure to adhere to safety standards.
• Wrongful death - We understand the tragedy of a life cut short as a result of another’s error, and we strive to provide meaningful legal help for families whose loved ones have died due to another person's wrongful actions.
• Dangerous and defective products - We work with those who have been injured by products that were poorly designed, incorrectly manufactured, or unsafe because of the failure to provide proper warnings or instructions.

Attorney Fotopoulos understands the difficulties you are going through in the wake of a serious accident, and he approaches every case with empathy and compassion while, at the same time, aggressively pursuing maximum compensation for you. Fotopoulos Law Office takes personal injury cases on a contingency basis, meaning we will not bill you for our services unless and until we can recover compensation on your behalf.

DuPage County Lawyer Handling Civil and Family Law Arbitration and Mediation

Arbitration and mediation are common ways to resolve disputes without the need for judicial intervention. While these methods of dispute resolution are similar in that they both involve a neutral third party hearing both sides' cases, arbitration results in a binding decision, whereas mediators propose solutions that the parties are free to agree to or reject, with the ultimate decisions being up to the parties themselves.

Both arbitration and mediation can save time and money for both sides. However, it is important to understand the stakes involved and to be adequately prepared. Attorney Fotopoulos relies on the skills he honed as a former Cook County Circuit Court judge to help his clients find workable solutions to difficult family law and civil cases.
