Montgomery County, Illinois – Briskman Briskman & Greenberg is offering legal support to those who were injured in the recent dust storm crash in Montgomery County, Illinois. The incident, which involved over 60 vehicles, resulted in six fatalities and over 30 injuries.

Lawyers with the firm can discuss legal options with the families that have been affected and there is no charge for the consultation.

Excessive winds blew dirt from nearby farms across the highway, creating conditions with zero visibility and resulting in a northbound crash and numerous southbound collisions, which collectively involved about 20 trucks or commercial vehicles and 40-60 passenger cars, according to police. The incident occurred at milepost 76 on Interstate 55, north of Farmersville in Montgomery County, and the road was closed in both directions from mileposts 63-80.

Authorities described the incident as creating conditions comparable to a whiteout snow event. They advised drivers who encounter a dust storm to put on their hazard lights and exit the road.

“Dealing with the aftermath of a serious accident can be overwhelming, both emotionally and financially,” he said. “Our team is here to help victims navigate the legal process and fight for the compensation they need to move forward.”
