Personal Injury Law Firms Chicago

Under Illinois personal injury laws, you can seek compensation for any damages or losses that you or your loved one has suffered that resulted from another party’s intentional or negligent actions. With the right personal injury attorney on your side, you can begin to get your life back on track, even after a catastrophic accident.

The Horwitz Law Group has extensive experience handling various kinds of personal injury cases. Because most insurance providers work with teams of attorneys, it could be difficult for accident victims to go up against an insurance company on their own. As one of the most successful personal injury law firms in Chicago, we are used to battling with insurance companies that refuse to pay for victims’ medical expenses, pain and suffering, and lost wages, among others.

Understanding Personal Injury Claims in Illinois

When accidents occur, they can have minor to life-changing consequences for the victims’ financial, physical, and mental wellbeing. Personal injury claims can play a crucial role in the victim’s ability to recover by helping them obtain the compensation they deserve for the damages they sustained through their injuries. At Horwitz Law Group, our personal injury lawyers can guide you through what could be a complicated and long road towards proper financial, emotional, and physical recovery.

But first, we need to figure out whether a claim for personal injury is best for your specific situation, and you’ll need to understand the two fundamental elements of personal injury claims – liability and damages.

Liability – A personal injury claim is initiated when an injury or accident victim files a complaint against an individual, corporation, business, or government entity whose inaction or reckless actions allegedly caused harm to the victim. However, the victim will have to prove that the defendant was at fault since the injury itself doesn’t automatically prove legal liability. For the personal injury claim to succeed, the victim will need to establish the defendant’s legal liability to receive rightful compensation for the damages and injuries. Once legal liability has been clearly established, the victim can recover from the defendant’s insurance provider proper compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, emotional trauma, and/or pain and suffering.
Damages – The victim should demonstrate the extent and specific nature of the losses and injuries. Common damages in personal injury claims include medical bills, pain and suffering, property damage, and lost wages.
