Wrongful Death Overview

Among the deadliest intersections in Illinois, according to State Farm Insurance, are the corners of South Stony Island Avenue and East 95th Street in Chicago and IL-59 W. and Caton Farm Road in Joliet. The Federal Highway Administration cites the following factors that contribute to danger at an intersection: traffic congestion, signage, traffic control devices and visibility.

Whether an accidental accident occurs in traffic or in other circumstances, identifying liability is critical in a successful wrongful death claim.
