When accidents result in serious injuries, determining who was responsible is not always easy. An injury victim may struggle with financial issues due to medical bills and lost income, and they may also experience a great deal of pain, discomfort, and emotional trauma.

With the help of a skilled attorney, a person can secure financial compensation from the person or party who injured them.
At Newland & Newland, LLP, our lawyers understand what is at stake when someone has been seriously injured. We work with people throughout Lake Zurich and the surrounding area, helping them understand their rights and take steps to obtain the full compensation needed to address their injuries and financial losses. We can gather evidence, work with medical providers, deal with insurers, and make sure legal deadlines are met during a case while providing compassionate representation and fighting so maximize the compensation our clients can receive.
Product Liability
Consumers will usually believe that the products they purchase and use are reasonably safe. Unfortunately, a manufacturer, distributor, or retailer may place a defective product into the marketplace, and people can be seriously injured when these products malfunction, break down unexpectedly, or are dangerous for other reasons.
Product liability cases can involve anything from defective auto parts and power tools to unsafe medications and medical devices. Defects in children's toys, appliances, or other items used in the home can cause serious harm to multiple family members. Products that do not come with warning labels or instructions on safe use can lead to injuries when people are unaware of potential risks. Our attorneys work to identify all responsible parties in the supply chain, including manufacturers, suppliers of specific components, or retailers. We help our clients hold these parties accountable for injuries caused by defective products.
Premises Liability
People may be injured when they are visiting property owned by someone else. Accidents can occur when property owners, residential tenants, or companies that operate businesses do not ensure that the conditions on a property are safe. A premises liability claim can address a property owner's failure to protect a person's safety in situations such as:
- Slip and fall accidents due to issues such as wet floors, torn carpets, or poor lighting
- Inadequate security that failed to prevent an assault or another crime
- Swimming pool accidents involving unsecured or unguarded pools
- Structural hazards such as broken stairs, collapsing balconies, or defective railings

Dog Bites and Animal Attacks
In Illinois, the owner of a dog may be held liable for injuries caused by their pet. There is no need to prove the owner knew the dog was dangerous. When a dog bites or attacks a person who was in a public place or was allowed to be on private property, and the dog was not provoked into attacking, the owner can be held responsible.
A dog bite can result in multiple types of serious injuries, including cuts, puncture wounds, nerve damage, broken bones, and scarring. Our lawyers help injury victims take steps to obtain compensation for medical treatment, reconstructive care, lost income, emotional distress, or other damages suffered due to dog bites.
Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect
Nursing homes should provide people with a safe place to live where they can receive the proper medical care and assistance with their daily needs. Unfortunately, some nursing homes are understaffed, or staff members may fail to take the proper steps to care for residents, address medical issues, or provide supervision.
Nursing home abuse and neglect can lead to serious harm for elderly or disabled residents. Families may take steps to address these issues and hold a facility responsible for injuries caused by physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, lack of medical care, lack of supervision, or other forms of negligence. Our attorneys can provide guidance for families in these situations, working to achieve justice for a loved one who has experienced abuse or neglect.
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Car accidents, commercial truck accidents, motorcycle crashes, and other types of motor vehicle collisions can result in serious injuries for the people involved. are among the most common causes of serious injury in Illinois. In many cases, accidents are caused by driver negligence, such as speeding, distracted driving, running red lights, or driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Our lawyers work with accident reconstruction professionals, and we can take steps to obtain evidence such as police reports and traffic camera footage. We will fully document the injuries and financial losses that have occurred in an accident, and we will fight to secure full and fair compensation for the injuries and damages that our clients have experienced.
Rideshare Injuries
Rideshare services are a common form of transportation used by people throughout the Chicago suburbs, including Lake Zurich. When a rideshare driver causes an accident, the people involved may be unsure about who may be held responsible.
Uber, Lyft, and other rideshare companies maintain insurance coverage that applies to passengers who have been injured or others who are involved in rideshare accidents. However, determining what level of coverage applies and filing claims can be a complex process. Our attorneys understand the factors that may play a role in these cases, and we work to ensure that our clients will have the financial resources they need to make a full recovery after an Uber or Lyft accident.
Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Claims and Compensation
You may be able to obtain compensation for both economic and non-economic damages.
