McCready Law is a personal injury practice serving Chicago truck accident victims since 1999. The firm has recovered over $650 million for clients and now runs 13 offices across seven Midwest states.
Its caseload covers semi-truck and bus collisions, motor vehicle crashes, premises liability, and workers' compensation. Attorneys also take medical malpractice and catastrophic injury claims.
Reported results include $5.25 million in a medical malpractice case and $3 million in a product liability suit against a car manufacturer. Consultations are free, and clients owe no fee unless the firm wins.
Work injuries and highway crashes overlap more often than people expect, and McHargue & Jones has built a Loop practice around both. The firm has represented injured Illinois workers for more than 25 years.
Partners James McHargue and Matthew Jones handle denied workers' comp claims, stopped benefit checks, and disputed independent medical exams. The team also takes Chicago truck accident cases, rideshare collisions, unsafe property claims, and dog bite injuries.
Settlements include $955,000 for a union worker who suffered a career-ending shoulder injury. Se habla espanol.
