On Sunday, July 20, at 3:00 pm CT, Craig J. Squillace, partner at Clifford Law Offices, will join Karen Conti on WGN 720 to discuss liability in driverless car accidents. With the rise of autonomous vehicle technology and a high-profile lawsuit against Tesla currently unfolding in Florida, Craig will share his legal perspective on where the responsibility lies when driving technology fails.
With over 20 years of experience representing victims of complex car, truck, and motor vehicle accidents throughout Chicago, Craig Squillace is recognized not only for obtaining significant verdicts and settlements but also for his ability to simplify complex legal issues for everyday people. His work has earned him recognition as a Lawdragon 500 Leading Plaintiff Consumer Lawyer and multiple honors as an Illinois Super Lawyer.
Although Clifford Law Offices is not directly involved in the Tesla case in Florida, Craig’s insight into the legal landscape surrounding autonomous vehicles is based on his extensive litigation experience and deep understanding of motor vehicle law.
This case sets the stage for attorneys, lawmakers, and public safety advocates to reevaluate how motor vehicle regulations and laws related to autonomous technology, drivers, manufacturers, and software developers should evolve. As self-driving cars become more common, so does the need to establish clear legal standards that prioritize accountability and public safety.
Tune in to the Karen Conti Show on WGN 720 on Sunday, July 20, at 3:00 pm to hear Craig’s thoughts on the future of driverless car liability.
