I had property damage and a personal injury that was caused by the clear negligence of a contractor. I initially thought I could handle the matter myself and avoid attorney fees. After all, I had the name of the insurance company, so how hard could it be to negotiate a settlement with them? so I th...ought. I made countless calls to the contractor's insurance representative, which they ignored. After months of getting the run around from the insurance company and making no progress, I was at wits end. I was talking to a friend and explaining my frustration when she recommended attorney Tim Lucero. Mr Lucero had represented her very successfully in the past. After meeting Mr Lucero, I was impressed with both his knowledge and friendly manner, so I employed his firm. Tim kept me informed every step of the way. His guidance was invaluable as was his persistence in dealing with the uncooperative insurance company. Within four months, we received a fair settlement offer! The Lucero Law firm asked for no money up front and did not get paid unless we received an acceptable offer which had to be approved by me. In the end, my settlement far exceeded what I would have been able to negotiate on my own. The matter was resolved extremely fast once Mr Lucero became involved. I could not have been more happy with the result. With all the attorneys practicing law in the Chicago area, I feel fortunate to have stumbled upon Mr Lucero.
