For months, the family of Mr. Ponce endured the unimaginable: his body remained trapped under the wreckage, while haunting images of the collapse circulated in the media.<\/p>\n<p>La familia Ponce acudi\u00f3 al Pilsen Law Center en su b\u00fasqueda de justicia, rendici\u00f3n de cuentas y dignidad. Los abogados de nuestro bufete, liderados por Arturo Jauregui, exigieron de inmediato que la ciudad de Nueva Orleans y las empresas responsables de la construcci\u00f3n tomaran medidas urgentes para recuperar los cuerpos y responder por su negligencia.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Four months of waiting is long enough,&#8221;<\/em> dijo el se\u00f1or Jauregui en aquel momento. <em>&#8220;It is time for the City and the contractors to be held accountable for this horrific tragedy and bring closure to the families.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Despite initial resistance from those responsible, our team relentlessly advocated on behalf of the Ponce family-both in the courtroom and in the public eye. After intense legal pressure and a dedicated civil action, Pilsen Law Center secured a significant financial settlement for the surviving heirs of Jose Ponce.<\/p>\n<p>The compensation obtained reflects not only the magnitude of the loss, but also the grave responsibility of those who failed to provide a safe work environment. More than 18 lawsuits were filed in connection to the collapse, and our firm was at the forefront-fighting to ensure the Ponce family&#8217;s voice was heard and justice was served.<\/p>\n<p>Si bien ninguna cantidad de dinero puede devolver a un ser querido, el resultado ha brindado a la familia Ponce cierta justicia, consuelo y seguridad financiera. Tambi\u00e9n envi\u00f3 un mensaje claro: la negligencia tiene consecuencias, y el Centro Legal de Pilsen no descansar\u00e1 hasta que familias como la de los Ponce obtengan lo que les corresponde por derecho.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Acuerdo de indemnizaci\u00f3n de 3 millones de d\u00f3lares, hasta el l\u00edmite de la p\u00f3liza, para un estudiante de la UIC gravemente herido por un autob\u00fas escolar privado.<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<p>Cuando una estudiante de teatro de 20 a\u00f1os de la Universidad de Illinois en Chicago se dispuso a cruzar la calle el 1 de noviembre de 2017, jam\u00e1s imagin\u00f3 que su vida cambiar\u00eda para siempre. Mientras caminaba por el paso de peatones con luz verde en la intersecci\u00f3n de Halsted y Harrison en Chicago, fue atropellada por un autob\u00fas escolar privado.<\/p>\n<p>The impact was catastrophic. One of the bus wheels rolled directly over her midsection, causing devastating internal injuries. A nearby UIC police officer rushed to her side as she lay on the cold, wet pavement, writhing in pain. She was rushed to Stroger Hospital, where she remained in the critical care unit for 22 days. Her injuries included a lacerated liver and pancreas, severe abdominal trauma, and long-term complications to her hepatobiliary system-resulting in multiple surgeries and ongoing medical care.<\/p>\n<p>Su recuperaci\u00f3n ha sido larga, dolorosa e incierta.<\/p>\n<p>Decidida a luchar por la justicia, ella y su familia acudieron al Centro Legal de Pilsen. Los abogados Edward J. Santiago y Arturo Jauregui emprendieron acciones legales inmediatas contra la compa\u00f1\u00eda privada de autobuses y sus operadores. A pesar de las abrumadoras pruebas y los testimonios de los testigos presenciales, el caso fue impugnado en\u00e9rgicamente durante m\u00e1s de dos a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n<p>Through skilled litigation, relentless advocacy, and an unwavering commitment to their client, Santiago and Jauregui secured the full $3,000,000.00 policy limits from the defendants-one of the highest possible outcomes under the circumstances.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;We are glad that the case has been resolved giving this talented young lady some security as she closes this terrible episode in her life.,&#8221;<\/em> dijo el abogado Edward Santiago.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;The case took a long time to resolve due in part to the ongoing unexpected medical sequelae related to her biliary system that required ongoing medical intervention,&#8221;<\/em> a\u00f1adi\u00f3 el abogado Arturo Jauregui.<\/p>\n<p>Este contundente resultado ha brindado el cierre y el apoyo financiero que tanto necesitaba una joven cuyos sue\u00f1os estuvieron a punto de truncarse. Adem\u00e1s, env\u00eda un mensaje claro: las acciones imprudentes tienen consecuencias reales, y el Centro Legal de Pilsen nunca dejar\u00e1 de luchar por quienes han sido perjudicados injustamente.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>El Ayuntamiento aprueba un acuerdo de 3,5 millones de d\u00f3lares en el caso de la persecuci\u00f3n policial.<\/h3>\n\t\t\tChicago, Illinois, 20 de mayo de 2026\n<p>On the night of August 2, 2020, at approximately 10:30 p.m., Jose Almanza-affectionately known throughout Little Village as <em>El Se\u00f1or de los Cacahuates<\/em>-left home for a quick errand to a local Walgreens. He never returned.<\/p>\n<p>Cuando el Sr. Almanza cruzaba Pulaski Road a la altura de la calle 26, fue atropellado violentamente por un veh\u00edculo a gran velocidad que hu\u00eda de un coche patrulla sin distintivos de la polic\u00eda de Chicago. La persecuci\u00f3n recorri\u00f3 varias manzanas de Little Village a velocidades peligrosamente altas y dur\u00f3 aproximadamente 18 segundos. La persecuci\u00f3n se inici\u00f3 por infracciones de tr\u00e1fico menores: no usar la se\u00f1al de giro y un espejo retrovisor roto. En ese momento, una orden vigente del Departamento de Polic\u00eda de Chicago prohib\u00eda a los agentes realizar persecuciones de veh\u00edculos por infracciones de tr\u00e1fico menores o no peligrosas. A pesar de esta prohibici\u00f3n, los agentes continuaron la persecuci\u00f3n en un veh\u00edculo sin distintivos.<\/p>\n<p>El se\u00f1or Almanza sufri\u00f3 lesiones catastr\u00f3ficas, incluyendo un traumatismo craneoencef\u00e1lico grave y una fractura de pierna. Falleci\u00f3 tres d\u00edas despu\u00e9s. Era esposo y padre de dos hijos adultos. Tr\u00e1gicamente, su esposa falleci\u00f3 de c\u00e1ncer un a\u00f1o despu\u00e9s de su muerte, antes de que el caso pudiera resolverse.<\/p>\n<p>Despu\u00e9s de cuatro d\u00edas de juicio ante el juez Harris, la familia Almanza lleg\u00f3 a un acuerdo el 7 de noviembre de 2025 con la ciudad de Chicago por 3,5 millones de d\u00f3lares. El juez Harris desempe\u00f1\u00f3 un papel fundamental para facilitar la resoluci\u00f3n de este caso.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This was a hard\u2011fought and deeply contested case. We are relieved to finally bring closure to Jose&#8217;s family after years of pain and uncertainty,&#8221; said lead attorney Arturo Jauregui of Jauregui &amp; Associates \/ Pilsen Law Center. Attorney Edward J. Santiago also played a critical role in achieving the outcome.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Results Matter.
