Best Car Accident Lawyers near Plainfield, IL

Insurance companies are neither fair, nor reasonable...if they suddenly decided to be fair and reasonable, We'd be looking for a new career. In 2022, Marker & Crannell secured more than $1.1million in excess verdicts and settlements from insurance carriers. The combined limits of coverage in those cases was $225,000. That means we were able to get insurance companies to pay $937,000 to our clients ABOVE their limits of coverage. We did not collect from the individual defendants - their insurance companies paid ALL OF IT. Why? Because they weren't offering fair settlements when they had the chance, so we took the cases to trial. Juries are reasonable and they are the great equalizer. Because the insurance companies didn't offer a fair settlement when it was clear what the cases were worth, the verdicts exposed the insurance companies to a "bad faith" claim by their insured. To avoid that, they simply paid the excess verdict. TWO excess jury verdicts. ONE excess settlement just 4 days before trial. $937,000 in recoveries that wouldn't have existed if our attorneys weren't as competent and persistent as they are. $937,000 in recoveries that wouldn't have existed if insurance companies were fair and reasonable. Two things you can count on...1) our attorneys, and 2) unreasonable insurance companies.
