Commercial trucks have electronic control modules, often called black boxes. They record speed, brake use, hours driven, and other key details. This data can show if the driver was speeding, failed to brake in time, or exceeded legal driving hours. Trucking companies may try to delete or hide this data. Costa Ivone acts fast to send a preservation letter and recover the black box information before it is lost.
Yes. Truck accidents in Aurora happen frequently on Route 34 (Ogden Avenue), Route 25, and near the I‑88 interchange. These roads carry heavy truck traffic to and from nearby warehouses and distribution centers. Congestion and tight ramps add to the risk. If your crash happened on one of these roads, Costa Ivone knows the area well and can use local traffic patterns to support your claim.
You may claim money for emergency room visits, hospital bills, surgery costs, physical therapy, medications, and any future medical care related to the accident. You can also claim lost wages from missed work, reduced future earnings, and damage to your vehicle. In addition, you may receive compensation for pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. Costa Ivone will review your situation and calculate every dollar you deserve.
We offer a contingency fee arrangement. You pay nothing upfront. We only receive payment if we recover compensation for you. Our fee comes as a percentage of the final settlement or court award. This means you can get high‑quality legal help without worrying about hourly fees or upfront costs.
Yes, Illinois follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can recover compensation as long as you are less than 50 percent responsible for the crash. Your final amount will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are 10 percent at fault, you receive 90 percent of the damages. Costa Ivone will investigate to keep your fault percentage as low as possible.
In Illinois, the statute of limitations for car accident claims is two years from the date of the crash. If you do not file within that time, you will likely lose your right to any compensation. Some rare exceptions exist, but you should never wait. Contact Costa Ivone as soon as possible to make sure all deadlines are met.
