Nicole Sommerfeld has focused her law practice on workers’ compensation and personal injury law ever since passing the Illinois bar exam and getting licensed in 1994, so she now has over 25 years of experience on the job.
Nicole grew up in the Chicago area, attending Highland Park High School. She went to college at University of Wisconsin - Madison and earned her juris doctorate from the John Marshall Law School in Chicago.
When she first started practicing law it was a family affair, going to work at her father and brother’s law firm where she focused on helping workers who were injured on the job.
In 2008 she joined Abels & Annes, P.C. as Of Counsel and has been handling work injury claims there ever since.
Most of Nicole’s new clients come from referrals from her past clients who were happy with her work, and she backs that up with lots of positive reviews online. The injured workers she represents really seem to appreciate the effort she puts into their cases.
If you’ve been injured on the job or in an accident, give Nicole a call for a free consultation at (312) 924-7575. She’d be happy to evaluate your case and determine if our office can help you.

Chicago Motorcycle Accident Lawyers at Abels & Annes, P.C. http://www.daveabels.com/motorcycle-accidents.html
Motorcycles are a part of the regular traffic flow in the Chicago area, and if you work or live in the city, you likely see these bikes with some regularity. In fact, bikers are a legal part of the vehicular traffic in the area and have all the same rights and responsibilities as other forms of transit, like passenger cars.
But despite their rights and their protected status, many drivers fail to respect bikers and instead act in a manner that threatens their safety. Far too often, this conduct leads to a motorcycle collision that may result in injuries to those on a bike or to those in a car.
The results of a crash involving a motorcyclist can vary but often involve fractured bones, open or closed head injuries, damage to internal organs, abrasions, cuts, road rash, and embedding of foreign objects in the skin. These injuries usually require medical treatment and may prevent a biker from working for a period of time while he or she recovers.
If a motorcycle collision has caused you to be injured or claimed the life of someone you love, call the personal injury attorneys at Abels & Annes, P.C. today. We have an attorney standing by 24 hours a day, seven days a week to take your call toll free at (855) LAW-CHICAGO (529-2442) or locally at (312) 924-7575 and to provide you with a free case consultation.

Uninsured Accident Lawyers at Abels & Annes, P.C. http://www.daveabels.com/uninsured-and-underinsured-motorist-claims.html
Attorneys at our office often receive phone calls from people that have been injured in car accidents and the at-fault driver had no insurance at the time of the collision. In this situation, lawyers at our office will look to pursue an uninsured motorist claim on behalf of the injured party.
In most cases, victims of car accidents in Illinois carry uninsured motorist coverage to protect them in situations where an at-fault driver does not have insurance, but often, victims do not realize they have this coverage. Speaking with an attorney who has experience with uninsured motorist claims can help you realize whether you have a valid case for your injuries, and if so, what relief may be possible.
In the event that an uninsured motorist claim is available, a victim's own car insurance company will "step into the shoes" of an at-fault driver to provide coverage in the case. Regardless of whether a victim was driving or was a passenger, that victim can obtain the full relief she deserves for her injuries and through her own insurance company, including payment for medical expenses, rehabilitative care, lost wages, pain and suffering, and the loss of a normal life.
Contact the injury lawyers at Abels & Annes, P.C. for a free consultation and learn about your legal rights.

If you have questions or if you need help, call Abels & Annes, P.C. toll free at (855) LAW-CHICAGO (529-2442) or locally at (312) 924-7575.
