Personal Injury Cases We Handle for Tinley Park Clients 

Car Accidents and Motor Vehicle Injuries 

Busy corridors like Harlem Avenue, 159th Street, and I-80 see frequent crashes, many of them serious. After a car accident, insurance companies often push quick settlements that don’t reflect the true cost of injuries. 

Michael Brennan represents Tinley Park residents injured in car accidents involving: 

• Rear-end and intersection collisions 

• Uninsured and underinsured drivers 

• Hit-and-run accidents 

• Pedestrian and bicycle crashes 

If fault is disputed or injuries took time to appear, legal guidance can make a meaningful difference. 

 

Slip and Fall and Premises Liability Claims 

Falls happen everywhere — stores, parking lots, apartment buildings, even medical offices. The key question is often whether the property owner should have prevented it. 

We represent Tinley Park clients in slip and fall injury cases and premises liability claims involving: 

• Wet floors and poor lighting 

• Broken stairs or handrails 

• Uneven sidewalks or parking lots 

• Unsafe commercial or residential properties 

Many falls are written off as unavoidable when they are anything but. 

 

Pedestrian, Train, and Boat Accidents 

Some accidents leave people especially exposed — and the legal issues are often more complex. 

Michael Brennan represents Tinley Park clients injured in: 

• Pedestrian accidents 

• Train accidents involving Metra lines or rail crossings 

• Boat accidents caused by negligent operation or unsafe conditions 

These cases often involve large insurers or public entities that don’t readily accept responsibility. 

 

Construction and Workplace Injuries (Third-Party Claims) 

Not all work-related injuries are limited to workers’ compensation. 

Michael Brennan handles third-party personal injury claims arising from: 

• Construction accidents 

• Workplace injuries caused by contractors, vendors, or property owners 

If someone other than your employer contributed to your injury, you may have options beyond workers’ comp. 

 

Nursing Home Abuse and Elder Neglect Affecting Tinley Park Families 

Tinley Park families rely on nursing homes and assisted living facilities to care for vulnerable loved ones. When care falls short, the results can be devastating. 

Michael Brennan represents families in cases involving: 

• Nursing home and elder neglect 

• Nursing home abuse 

• Nursing home wrongful death 

These cases require careful investigation and a willingness to challenge facilities that deny wrongdoing. 

 

Medical Malpractice Claims Serving Tinley Park 

Medical mistakes can leave long-term consequences that aren’t always obvious right away. 

The firm handles medical malpractice cases involving: 

• Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis 

• Surgical errors 

• Medication mistakes 

• Hospital and nursing negligence 

When medical standards aren’t met, accountability matters. 

 

Serious and Catastrophic Injury Cases 

Some injuries permanently alter how a person lives and works. 

Michael Brennan represents Tinley Park clients with catastrophic injuries, including: 

• Traumatic brain injuries 

• Spinal cord injuries 

• Burn injuries 

• Fracture injuries 

• Dog bite injuries 

These cases demand patience, planning, and a long-term view of recovery. 

 

Wrongful Death Representation for Tinley Park Families 

When negligence leads to the loss of life, families deserve answers — not silence. 

Michael Brennan represents families in wrongful death cases arising from: 

• Fatal car accidents 

• Medical malpractice 

• Nursing home neglect 

• Construction and third-party workplace incidents 

While no case can undo the loss, legal action can provide clarity and financial stability. 

 

Why Tinley Park Clients Choose Michael J. Brennan

• Direct communication with the attorney 

• Honest answers, even when they’re difficult 

• No legal fees unless compensation is recovered 

• A local lawyer who understands the area and courts 

That approach isn’t for everyone — but for clients who value personal involvement, it makes a difference.
