Chicago Speeding Accident Attorneys

Speeding has become so commonplace in society that many do not consider the possible negative outcomes of exceeding the speed limit, though speeding has been shown to be a major contributing factor in many motor vehicle accidents. Sometimes simply not speeding is not enough to avoid a speeding-caused collision, and law-abiding drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians can face insurmountable financial, vehicular, and personal injuries at the hands of reckless drivers.

The Chicago speeding accident attorneys of Karlin, Fleisher & Falkenberg, LLC, have experience helping people deal with the aftermath of speeding accidents. If you’ve been hurt in a car accident by a speeding motorist, contact us at 312-346-8620 to learn more about what we can do to help you hold the responsible person accountable.

Effects of Speeding

Year after year, speeding contributes to a large percentage of fatal and non-fatal collisions, and yet it is still one of the most common hazardous driving practices. As people gain confidence in their ability to speed, they do it more often and on roads that are more difficult to navigate, putting not only themselves at risk, but also everyone driving around them. Many fail to realize that surpassing the speed limit can heavily affect one’s driving in a number of ways, including:

Inability to recognize road signs
Difficulty maneuvering vehicle
Inability to make stops in time
Distracted driving
Less likely to make turns
Increased chances of skidding

The effects of speeding are each dangerous in their own right, and when combined, they may have lethal consequences. However, regardless of whether speeding ends in a collision or not, exceeding the speed limit can still have many consequences, including:

License suspension and penalties
Speeding tickets and fines
Heightened insurance rates
Increased wear and tear on vehicle

The Chicago car accident lawyers at Karlin, Fleisher & Falkenberg, LLC, know that careless acts like speeding can have disastrous consequences, and we believe that those not at fault should not be the ones to suffer them.

Dear J.B. , I wanted to thank you, for the job you did on my case. You were not only an excellent lawyer, you were a friend along the way as well. You always promptly called me, addressing my questions and concerns. As far as my settlement goes, I couldn’t have expected more then you got for me. Many lawyers “brag” , about the amount of settlements they get for their clients, on their T.V. commercials . You, got me more then these lawyers “brag” about. Thank you for getting me such a strong settlement, and being a friend as well, along the way. I’d be more then happy to talk to anyone who would like to know , what a fine attorney you are. Thank you for being there for me. Sincerely,

- J.F.

Thank you so much for your diligent, professional, and thorough handling of my car accident settlement. You were beyond helpful, accommodating, and supportive during the process. You patiently explained, in detail, the procedures that would take place during the course of the claim. You continually updated me as progress was made and gave me in-depth details. Being that I was a novice to this type of practice, you advised me as to what was realistic, yet fair, as far as when, how, and monetarily the claim would be settled. When an offer was made, you advised me accordingly, and counter-offered for what you believed to be a reasonable and objective settlement. Beyond that, you also worked determinedly to reduce my medical claims and had great success. An attorney friend of mine went as far to say that you “hit a home run” when you negotiated my settlement. I want you to know how much your guidance and attentiveness to my claim meant to me. I will definitely recommend you and your firm should any of my acquaintances need legal advice in the future.
