Lindsey Seeskin

Lindsey Seeskin is the founder of Seeskin Law LLC, a values-driven personal injury and wrongful death law firm in Chicago. The values on which the firm is built are twofold – to offer all clients a rigorous, ethical brand of representation infused with deep and generous compassion; and to help anyone who can benefit from working with a personal injury attorney and ensure that everyone who calls is better off than they were before.

Lindsey’s personal values of integrity, universal respect and compassion inform every professional decision she makes for her clients and her practice.

The same values are evident in her approach to litigation. Lindsey believes that building airtight cases around an exhaustive list of proven facts not only speaks louder and more clearly than theatrics, and it also demonstrates respect for everyone involved.

When not in court fighting for the rights of those harmed by the negligence of others, Lindsey serves as an officer on the Board of Trustees for Anshe Emet Synagogue and the Board of Directors for The United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism. She lives in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago with her husband, son and daughter.

Q. Police have held my car on hold since 3/18/23 and I tried to get info on it but the police report doesn’t even exist

January 5, 2024

A: I'm very sorry to hear what you have been through. It's possible the police report number you were provided is incorrect. If that's the case, please know you can also search for police reports using the name of your "friend" and/or your own name, the date of the crash, and the location of the crash. Please also note that suburban police departments sometimes take 10 days to complete and upload the police reports to the websites used to access them (especially where an arrest is involved), but you can directly contact the police department's record division for updates as necessary.

Q. How long will it take to get a settlement check after signing release form?

November 3, 2023

A: Illinois law gives at-fault drivers/insurance companies 30 days to get you your settlement check from the date they receive your signed release. However, there are other factors that sometimes extend that time frame. For example, if you are working with an attorney and your attorney is negotiating with medical providers, health insurance companies or Medicaid/Medicare that are owed money now that your case has resolved, it can take longer than 30 days to receive your check.

Q. Who is at fault

October 19, 2023

A: I'm very sorry to hear you were involved in an accident. The truck driver is at fault. Truck drivers, especially those driving semitrucks, even though they sometimes must move to the left lane to make a wide right turn, are obligated to check their side mirrors and be aware of vehicles that might be located next to their truck before attempting the right turn. It's a part of their training, from state regulations, CDL training and on-the-job training/manuals.
