Walner Law

Walner Law breaks its car and truck practice down by cause rather than by vehicle: distracted driving, drunk driving, hit and run, rollover and uninsured motorist claims each have their own entry. That is a useful structure, because the cause of a collision usually determines what evidence matters and which insurer ends up paying.

Practice areas

• Car and truck accidents by cause: distracted driving, cellphone, drunk driving, hit and run, rollover, rideshare, uninsured and underinsured
• Bicycle, bus, motorcycle and pedestrian accidents
• Construction accidents and catastrophic injuries
• Premises liability, slip and fall, dog bites
• Medical malpractice including birth injury and cerebral palsy
• Workers’ compensation, including permanent and partial disability
• Nursing home abuse, product liability, wrongful death

Office and service area

The office is at 33 N LaSalle St., Suite 2700, ZIP 60602.

What distinguishes this listing

Hit and run and uninsured motorist claims are named separately, and both run against your own policy rather than another driver’s — a materially different claim from a standard collision. The firm publishes a direct email address. On fees it states that initial consultations are always no-cost and no-obligation, and that it works on contingency, so no attorney fees are owed unless it wins.
