Recovering Damages Through a Personal Injury Claim in Carrollton

A serious injury can affect your life in many different ways, both measurable and immeasurable. Fortunately, Illinois law allows injured people to pursue compensation from negligent parties to account for nearly all of the negative effects of their injuries. Depending on the circumstances and severity, a personal injury claim can seek recovery for damages including:

• Medical expenses - Treatment for injuries can be costly when you consider the expenses for emergency care, diagnostics, surgeries and other medical procedures, hospital stays, medication, assistive devices, therapy, rehabilitation, and any other necessary care. All reasonable costs of treatment for your injuries are compensable.
• Property damage - Many injuries are accompanied by damage to the victim's property, especially in car accident cases. We can help you recover compensation for the repair or replacement of your vehicle and other damaged property.
• Lost wages - Serious injuries can lead to missed work time, at least during treatment and recovery, and possibly extended absences or long-term limitations if the effects of the injuries are permanent. A personal injury claim can account for both past income lost and expected losses in the future.
• Pain and suffering - Injury victims may also be entitled to non-economic damages for mental anguish and physical pain that interferes with their lives. This includes damages for inconvenience, permanent scarring and disfigurement, and loss of enjoyment and companionship.

Compensation may also be available for a victim's dependents after a fatal accident by way of a wrongful death claim. These claims can include all of the previously mentioned damages, as well as compensation for funeral costs and the survivors' grief and loss.

We help our clients determine who is at fault for their injuries and build a case for compensation supported by evidence of the other party's negligence and the damages suffered. After filing a claim, we represent our clients in negotiations with the goal of reaching a fair settlement out of court, and we recognize when it is necessary to take a case to court in order to achieve a fair outcome through a trial verdict.
