Just received a massive settlement for my mother in-law through the Personal Injury Lawyers. The attorney William Schuster who handled the case was amazing in negotiating with the lien holders and was able to reduce the cost of hospital, physical therapy and even the chiropractic office fees, leaving her with even more money. I referred other people to different law firms in the past and I must say that Mr. William Schuster exceeded all of the previous settlements through different law firms. Great job sir!

I’ve had one of the best experiences with this personal injury firm. Attorney Will and my paralegal, Jocelyn, were so attentive and consistent with my case, and since I was willing to do my part to make sure I was responsive and cooperative things went smoothly. They made sure that I received a settlement that was equivalent to my damage and losses. I would recommend them for any personal injury claim, and will work with them in the future, whenever necessary. Thank you!

I am incredibly thankful to have had Rob as my lawyer. Through his excellent recommendation system, I received the appropriate care I needed to recover from my head on car accident. Rob and his team were able to guide me through every step of the process. When it came time for my settlement, they achieved the outcome I was hoping for. I will undoubtedly turn to him for any future legal matters. If you’re looking for a lawyer who has your best interest and will fight for you then rob and his team will do exactly that.

Great attorney very honest and is direct as they come. Followed up when needed and make sure you did everything he needed to get the best results. Got a way better result then expected and likely better then most other firms would have as Robert when above and beyond and followed up. Most shocking do bare minimum and don’t communicate and to me communication is key and him and his staff exceeded my expectations. Definitely would recommend and likely will use services again if need to in future.

My experience with Robert Fakhouri was incredible. I can honestly say that all of my expectations were exceeded. Normally, I would not have known where to begin but he was recommended to me after tirelessly searching on how to go about my claim with no prior experience on the matter. Robert was able to answer any questions I had and always pushed for the best possible outcome. He provided frequent updates and reassurance. I cannot recommend Robert and his team enough!

Originally I had signed my personal injury case over to a different law firm and for months there was no progress made. Once I had discovered the Fakhouri law firm my entire personal injury case had changed. Robert Fakhouri is an amazing attorney and took time and effort into every step and detail of my case ensuring the most amazing results. The entire staff of the Fakhouri law firm are very helpful, amazing and overall diligent in there work. Robert along with his staff ensured that my case was constantly being worked on. Highly recommend this law firm!

I’ve been involved in two other motor vehicle accidents and hired two other personal injury firms over the years. After having two awful experiences with both prior firms I was hesitant to contact Robert. However, after hearing nothing but great things I decided to hire The Fakhouri Firm. And I’m upset with myself because I wished I would have had The Fakhouri Firm represent me for my two prior motor vehicle accidents!! Such an amazing experience, and everyone worked so hard to obtain the highest settlement for me. If I could give them 10 stars I would. Thank you Robert and the team🙏

After reading other reviews I decided to hire Robert and his team to represent me for my personal injury case. And truthfully, I am so happy I did. The Fakhouri Firm was kind, communicative, caring, and most importantly HONEST. Robert never sugarcoated anything regarding my case, and he explained to me the facts that hurt my case and the facts that helped my case. He was very objective and transparent, but also extremely confident and knowledgeable. Most importantly, his entire team stood by their word. If my client care manager Jocelyn said she was going to call me in 2 weeks at 10 a.m., I got a phone call in 2 weeks at 10 a.m. Olga and William were also wonderful to communicate with. Thank you Fakhouri Team!!

This is my first time dealing with a personal injury! I had no knowledge nor experience on how to go about my claim until my clients told me about, The Fakhouri Firm! I was assigned, Will, to help me understand how the whole process works and not only did I learn the process, I felt welcomed by the staff, who were patient and wanting to make sure I was ok!! Best feeling ever when you think you're all alone but with the The Fakhouri Firm, I felt safe!! Highly recommended!!!

I would love to acknowledge Robert Fakhouri and his law firm on their outstanding job handling my case! It was my first time being in the situation I was and completely clueless on next steps, what needs to be done, etc. To say the least it was overwhelming. Robert was there for me every step of the way, was open to any questions I had (big or small), and was super patient and understanding. I definitely appreciate how straight forward he is, and at the same time, willing to educate you for you to understand and not be kept in the dark during the case. He went ABOVE AND BEYOND settling my case and got me an amount higher than I expected to even get, and truly was able to settle it in the best and most comforting way possible and give me the piece of mind I needed! 10/10, would definitely recommend him to anyone in need of legal assistance. Top notch, and pure class!

Long story short, I was in a bad situation where someone was attacking my character, spreading lies, and saying I was in breach of a contract. I knew all of the above were not true, however I was not sure where to turn to , or where to go. The ordeal with the person accusing me effected my quality of life for two years.Then I spoke with Robby Fakhouri only seeking an answer to a legal question.After asking the question and elaborating on my situation, he was so disturbed by how I was treated that he immediately filed an appearance to represent me, for my court day that was 3 days away . Mr. Fakhouri represented me out of the kindness of his heart. He saw the impact the case was taking on me , and when he told me he was going to represent me , I KNEW everything would play out for what was/ is right & just. He took time out of his insane work load (Due to him being the top lawyer in Chicago ) in order to help me. There was zero question about his values, or moral compass.If you want A) A good person, and B) Someone that will fight for you like you are their family; with all the energy, tenacity, focus, along with not hoping- - but KNOWING he will win for you, against anyone he is up against...Mr. Robby Fakhouri is who you not only want on your side, but NEED to represent you .There will be no other council I will seek aside from Mr. Robby Fakhouri

He had donated bags of necessary items to homeless people in their tents and I called him to see if I could donate a little bit you know to help him continue his effort and he said he's not even a 501c3 to accept cash to help with the load of the gift bags and he's a wonderful man and he's got a heart of gold I thought what he did was very very humanely conscious and so appropriate for the season

On my wedding day, my florist did not do the things we paid for. The church was suppose to be decorated and wasn't, our bouquets were not delivered on time which delayed our wedding photos, we were suppose to have an elaborate hanging flower display at the head table and that didn't happen, also family members had to complete the area were guest go to pick up their table numbers because the florist did not do it. Your wedding day is suppose to be the best day of your life and this situation obviously caused so much stress on the day.Robert was able to get us almost full compensation on what we paid the florist who did not do the things we had paid for. He was wonderful to work with, understood how upsetting the situation was for us, and did everything in his power to right what happened. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of legal assistance.

Robert Fakhouri, the man behind the firm, the leader of the pact, the unstoppable human who wants to see peace and justice for all who deserve it.It started off years and years back, as Robert aka Robby, being my best friend's brother, to then being my friend, to then being my lawyer, someone who changed my life.It has been almost a year since my whole life has changed.This is how my story goes.I, by no means ride motorcycles, but, my friend had one, and the second time I got on it, I never knew it would be my last. We were on the highway, and the next thing you know, I woke up in an ambulance.It was a hit and run accident. I was out of work for almost 2 months straight, bed ridden and unable to do anything myself.I was in horrible pain, not only physically, but mentally.I have been a health freak and athlete my whole life and after the accident I felt so defeated. I had pain all over my body that would not go away.After weeks had past, and chronic pain all over my body, I began to speak with the insurance company and had almost come to agreement with them, that they would cover all my medical bills, plus compensate me for my time spent out of work.I never knew, I could actually be compensated for my endless pain and suffering.I almost signed off with the insurance company, until I decided to open up to Robby and tell him about my accident.After telling him about my accident, I felt the biggest sense of relief because he told me I would be taken care of, and I deserved to be taken care of, based off my injuries. From that point forward, Robby took my case into his own hands, and told me all I needed to do was trust him and let him take care of the rest.Well, I did just that, after almost settling for pennies, with the insurance, Robby called me and told me it was time to finally come and pick up my settlement check. Pennies is what I would have received had I not gone to Robby and let him take care of me. Instead I ended up walking away with close to a six-figure-settlement.If you are struggling and don't know where to turn, or need someone on your side who can get you the justice you deserve, Robby Fakhouri is who you want.I can not say enough about Robby, he is pure, genuine, honest, and straight forward. He knows how to get the job done and he is unstoppable. Robby has a heart so giving and he wants the best for all who are in front of him. There are not many lawyers who you can say are personable and want your best interest, Robby is just that.I can not put into words the gratitude I have for Robby. He will forever hold a dear place in my heart.Thank you Robby for your service!!

Common Damages Sought in a Personal Injury Case

Every personal injury case is different, but all will consider the following categories of damages when assessing a fair and reasonable amount of compensation to request.

Before you arrange your free initial consultation with us, please read these answers to frequently asked motor vehicle accident questions:

Medical bills are almost always the most expensive part of injury recovery, and so they often make up the bulk of personal injury settlement values.

The eventual settlement (or court award) is supposed to compensate you for all reasonable and necessary treatment costs following your accident. What is covered will depend on the language of the liability insurance policy in question and the willingness of the liable party to accept fault.

Costs that must be accounted for include:

  • Medical bills
  • Long-term care at home or in a facility
  • Lost wages and benefits
  • Lost earning capacity
  • Property damage
  • Modifications to homes and vehicles
  • Emotional distress and pain and suffering
  • Loss of consortium
  • Funeral and burial costs

Notably, a personal injury settlement is supposed to cover the costs of past and future care. Many injury victims underestimate the long-term costs of their condition, especially if they will need something like a prescription or medical device for the rest of their lives.

A personal injury lawyer can help you project these costs and set you up to be cared for for the entire duration that your condition affects you.
