Chicago Personal Injury Attorney

Valerie Leopold — Chicago Personal Injury Lawyer

Medical Malpractice ● Accidental Death

When you are hurt, you need help. I am attorney Valerie Leopold, and I have successfully obtained millions of dollars in recoveries for those injured by medical malpractice and motor vehicle accidents.

If you or a loved one has suffered because of another person's reckless or negligent behavior, contact me online or call 312-781-6212. We will discuss your legal options during a free consultation.

Helping You Through a Difficult Time

I have been a personal injury attorney for over 30 years and I know how to protect your rights. After an injury, you need money to pay for current and future medical bills and to compensate you for lost earnings and income. Besides these monetary damages, you are entitled to compensation for pain, suffering, disfigurement and disability.

When one person is injured, another has to become the care provider, taking on many extra tasks and responsibilities. With a death, the entire family is affected forever. I became a lawyer to help these people.

What to Expect at Leopold & Associates

At Leopold & Associates, we begin by personally meeting with you in a free consultation to go over what happened in detail. It is important to do this as soon as possible so that your memory is fresh and important evidence is not lost.

We may want to get copies of your medical records or police report before anything is changed or lost. We may need to take photographs of recent injuries before healing begins or pictures of an accident scene before skid marks disappear or conditions change. Similarly, it may be important for us to find and locate important witnesses for your case, whether they are nurses, fellow patients or other drivers. Delay may make these things harder and sometimes impossible.

In our meeting, I will answer your questions and explain the law and standards of care that apply to your situation. We will discuss the strengths and weaknesses of your case and what needs to be done.

We focus on medical malpractice, accidental death, and personal injury accidents including car, truck and pedestrian accidents.
