Marion Personal Injury Lawyers Call 618-932-2772 to Let Our Experienced Legal Team Fight for You
Accidents can happen in life, most of them minor in nature. But when a devastating accident results in injury, your life can turn upside down. Not only does a serious injury take weeks, months, or years to completely heal, but being forced out of work can make it extremely difficult to take care of your family. On top of all that, the at-fault party and their insurance company may deny liability, which means you will have to pay for everything out of your own pocket.
At Sam C. Mitchell & Associates, we have helped our clients obtain favorable outcomes by guiding them through the complexities of the legal process and protecting their rights and best interests. Our Marion personal injury attorneys can investigate the accident, gather evidence, negotiate with insurers, and maximize your entitled compensation.

- Over $100 million recovered on behalf of our clients

File Your Claim as Soon as Possible
According to 735 Illinois Compiled Statutes section 5/13-202 of Illinois law, injury victims have two years to file a personal injury claim before the statute of limitations ends. If you don’t file your claim within this time period you will lose your right to recover compensation, no matter how serious your injuries. There are, however, exceptions to this rule which can extend or shorten the amount of time you have to file a claim which is why it’s best to contact an attorney from Sam C. Mitchell & Associates as soon as possible to discuss your case. We offer free consultations, so you have nothing to lose by reaching out to our firm.
