What Is A Personal Injury Claim?

A personal injury claim is a legal document you must file to recover money from the at-fault party. In most cases, the compensation you can recover from a claim comes from the defendant's insurance company.

However, there are various factors you need to prove before you can recover compensation. Here are the crucial elements of a personal injury claim:

  • Injury. As stated in the name, a personal injury claim requires you to prove evidence of an injury from the accident. You need to manifest proof that you suffered from bodily damages following an accident, and this is one of the most straightforward aspects to prove.
  • Damages. This is another element you need to prove in a personal injury case. You must establish that you shed money to recover from your injuries or repair damages because of the accident. Similar to the first element, this one is not hard to provide proof of.
  • Negligence. Lack of due care is another critical element in every injury case. However, proving negligence can be a challenging task. In this case, hiring the best lawyer to handle your case is highly beneficial.

What Compensatory Damages Are Available To Personal Injury Victims?

Injured victims are entitled to receive various forms of compensation after an accident. These recoverable compensations vary depending on the types of damages a victim sustained. Generally, compensation can stem from economic or non-economic damages.

  • Economic damages. Damages resulting in financial loss are called economic damages. Economic damages include medical bills or property damages. Lost wages and loss of future income are also categorized here.
  • Non-economic damages. Non-physical damages are classified under non-economic damages. This damage includes mental anguish, emotional distress, pain, and suffering. Loss of consortium is also categorized here.

Another type of compensatory damage a victim can recover is punitive damages. This is called punitive damages. Punitive damages are a legal punishment awarded to negligent defendants, and defendants are required by the law to pay the victim on top of their compensatory damages.

What should you know about the illinois legal system?

The burden of proving liability in an accident is the victim's responsibility. As mentioned in former sections, certain elements are needed for an accident before a victim can file a personal injury claim.

Before the law considers a personal injury case, the victim needs to establish the following:

  • The victim needs to prove that the defendant owes them the duty of care;
  • The at-fault defendant neglected his duty to observe due care;
  • The misaction of the defendant injured them or damaged their property;
  • The injuries caused by the defendants negligence caused the victim to lose finance for recovery or repair.

Moreover, the state's law also factors in the victim's negligence. According to Illinois personal injury law, 735 ILCS 5/2-1116, the state follows a modified comparative negligence law. The law states that victims who contributed more than half (51%) to the accident cannot recover any amount of compensation.

Why should you hire a personal injury attorney?

The legal process behind seeking compensation for your damages can be overwhelming and confusing. A personal injury lawyer is the best advocate to have by your side. They will work rigorously and efficiently to get you the maximum amount of compensation possible.

An attorney can do the following legal work for you:

  • Take care of all paperwork related to your case;
  • Consolidate a strong claim by using viable shreds of evidence;
  • Communicate with insurance companies on your behalf;
  • Arbitrate or take your case to trial, if necessary.

Our family worked with Joseph Conboy after our flood insurance company kept delaying communication and next steps regarding our policy and flood coverage for nearly a year. We were incredibly impressed with the level of professionalism, expertise, and dedication he and the team brought to the table. The attorneys were able to secure a speedy and favorable settlement, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. I highly recommend this attorney and law firm to anyone looking for top-notch representation – especially when dealing with insurance claims.
