Personal Injury Litigation - Plaintiffs

Our daughter was injured, and Pritzker Hageman was referred to us by our insurance agent who had been a defendant! He obviously was on the wrong end of them but recognized their exceptional work. We were 100% satisfied. I had Eric’s cell, email, and he or his staff responded almost immediately. We were very pleased with the outcome as well.

I was injured in a car accident and originally hired an attorney who didn't take much of an interest in my case. After parting ways, I did a significant amount of research before hiring Pritzker Hageman. The experience was literally night and day. Pritzker Hageman took a vested interest in my case and treated me as a person, not just a case number. They were compassionate and were genuinely concerned with my well-being. They regularly checked in to find out how I was progressing before and after my surgical procedure, and throughout my rehabilitation. From a legal perspective, their knowledge of injury law and managing my situation was second to none. We spoke regularly to discuss how my case was proceeding and they offered the best counsel to achieving the maximum outcome for me and my family. I have no problem recommending Pritzker Hageman to those who find themselves in need of personal injury litigation.

Eric and Fred at Pritzker Hageman were both so professional and helpful during such a painful time surrounding my father's death. They helped navigate through the painful process of making sure the right people were held accountable and my mother was taken care of, with empathy and understanding. We are grateful to have worked with them.

Pritzker Hageman were lifesavers in terms of accountability. Without their work, I would have had no justice for the devastating effects of my food-borne illness. I can't thank them enough for their tireless effort on my case, their patient approach, the empathy they showed, and their overall compassion. I never felt like a number or a second-rate client and feel like I have made new friends for life.

My wife and I were unfortunately in a motorcycle accident which ended with a below-the-knee amputation of my left leg. We were riding through an intersection when the driver of a car to our left didn't yield the right of way and hit us. Fortunately, my wife was able to walk away from the accident with minor injuries. I am a Pilot with a local airline, and I was worried about how I would be able to not only fly again, but how I would ever be able to help support our family. We have 3 grown children and 7 grandchildren that we love visiting and to help with all kinds of house projects and activities. Being in the hospital, and with all the decisions that needed to be made on my recovery is enough for any one couple to make but adding to that the thought of getting proper representation is one thing that can add stress to an already stressful situation. We, as with most people, never thought that this would happen to us. What are the steps we need to take, and how are we ever going to find someone to help us? We were recommended to give Eric Hageman a call at Pritzker Hageman from a friend of Kathy's, and so we did. I remember when Eric walked into the hospital room and introduced himself. He was a nice-looking guy who was genuinely concerned about us, and of course had a few questions. After going through the day of the accident, and what had been happening with me in the hospital up to our meeting, he was able to evaluate our strategy for seeking some form of compensation. He said that he would do everything he could to help us and explained what his goals for us were. He'd have to first do some research to get the reports from the accident and find out information on the driver that hit us. In the meantime, I should just focus on getting better. We had enough on our plate as it was and were relieved to know he would be taking care of that aspect. One less thing for us to deal with! Everyone has to deal with some form of setback in their lives, and most of us don't have a clue about what our options are or what things we need to be mindful of. It was comforting to know that Eric was handling our case. He just had a way to make us feel relieved that someone had our best interests in mind. During the research phase, Eric kept us informed about all the things he discovered. He had many questions for us, including specific information that only we would be able to provide him. One thing we learned- sometimes you need to be proactive in your own way to help with gathering information. I know Eric told us several times that our willingness to get information back to him quickly, helped him do his job, and he was grateful for that. That made us feel really good. Eric was able to get us a settlement within a month’s time! While no amount of money can ever bring my leg back, it was a relief that we received as much as we could, and that it was done in an expeditious timeframe. I have told our story about working with Eric to many friends along with the facts about having your case handled expertly and in a timely matter. Many are surprised to learn that when you have an accident, and that if you get a settlement, the insurance companies require you to pay your medical bills. One of the important aspects about getting the proper representation, is that you have to have someone who gets things done thoroughly and in a timely matter to offset those responsibilities. In the first month alone, our medical bills amounted to $200,000.00. Eric was able to negotiate with the insurance company to reduce that to around $30,000.00. Another thing is that once that has been paid, your insurance no longer requires future offsets. You start back to the beginning. Once again, Eric saved us from any future payments because he got things done. I know I said that no amount of money could ever replace my leg, but having the settlement helped relieve the stress of paying bills during my recovery. I had concerns about how I would ever get back to work, but I'm proud to say that after a little over a years’ time, I am back flying, and enjoying my time with my wife, family, and friends. Speaking of friends, I am glad to have Eric as one of them. We highly recommend Eric Hageman at Pritzker Hageman Law Firm for anyone who requires expert, thorough, compassionate representation.
