What We Do in DeWitt County
At 217 Law, we assist individuals facing significant legal issues that require careful attention and preparation. We represent clients in Clinton and throughout DeWitt County in matters involving personal injury, auto accidents, workers’ compensation, criminal defense, and family law.
In addition to serving clients in Clinton, we regularly work with individuals and families from communities across DeWitt County, including Farmer City, Wapella, Kenney, and surrounding rural areas. While each community has its own character, legal matters arising there proceed through the DeWitt County court system and reflect shared regional employment and transportation patterns.
Clinton Auto Accidents Lawyers
DeWitt County’s roadways include agricultural transportation routes, state highways, and connectors to neighboring counties. Collisions frequently involve commercial vehicles, farm equipment, and commuters traveling between Clinton and surrounding cities. When litigation becomes necessary, cases are handled through the DeWitt County Circuit Court.
Auto accident claims here often require careful analysis of insurance coverage and liability, particularly when multiple drivers or commercial entities are involved. Determining how policies apply — and whether underinsured coverage is available — can significantly affect recovery.
Clinton Workers Compensation Lawyers
Agriculture, manufacturing, healthcare, and local service industries form the foundation of employment in DeWitt County. Workplace injuries may occur in physically demanding settings, including warehouses and industrial facilities.
The Illinois workers’ compensation system provides benefits for medical treatment and wage replacement, but disputes can arise regarding causation, treatment authorization, and impairment ratings. These disagreements can directly affect long-term financial stability.
We guide injured workers in Clinton and DeWitt County through each stage of the process, emphasizing proper documentation and compliance with statutory requirements. A methodical approach helps protect available benefits under Illinois law.
