Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Romeoville
We cannot possibly list every kind of personal injury case we have handled, but this representative list may help you to see that we have handled a wide variety of negligence claims. If you do not see your cause of injury here, just give us a call to see if our Romeoville personal injury attorneys can help you.
Car Accidents
Auto accidents are all too common. In fact, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), over 36,000 people were killed in car accidents in 2018. We have won numerous motor vehicle accident cases. If you cannot travel, we can provide in-home or in-facility consultations. We gather the evidence to build your case for compensation. Also, we deal directly with the insurance company so that you do not have to do so.
Motorcycle and Bicycle Accidents
If you were riding a motorcycle or bicycle during a crash, you are at a much higher risk of more severe injuries than a person riding in a car or truck. According to the NHTSA, motorcyclists are 28 times more likely than those in passenger vehicles to die in accidents. These injuries can change your life as you know it. With so much at stake, you want personal injury lawyers on your side, fighting to get you the compensation that you need to rebuild your life after a motorcycle or bicycle accident.
Work Injuries
Some work injuries are eligible for workers’ compensation benefits. If that describes your situation, we can help you get the benefits you deserve. Also, we handle claims in which a third party caused the harm. We can help you sort out who is liable and go after money damages for your losses.
Trucking Accidents
Truck crashes are unique in the field of personal injury because these cases can involve state and federal laws and regulations that apply only to the trucking industry. Our Romeoville injury lawyers know how to protect your rights and hold the negligent parties accountable for the harm they caused. Sometimes, more than one party can be liable for your losses.
Medical Malpractice Claims
Whether you were hurt because of an incorrect diagnosis, a failure to diagnose, improperly administered medications, or some other medical mistake, our Romeoville injury attorneys handle these complex cases. If you suffered injury or your loved one was harmed or died from possible medical negligence, we can walk you through the process to determine whether you have a viable claim. By taking action, you can help ensure that other people do not get hurt in the future.
Construction Accidents
The construction industry can be a dangerous place to work. Thousands of construction workers sustain debilitating injuries every year. Many construction accidents are the result of the carelessness of others. We are familiar with construction practices and Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations and can litigate these complex cases to get you the compensation you deserve.
Slip and Fall Cases
Personal injury claims involving slips and falls also go by the name of premises liability. If you were hurt on someone else’s property and you think that an unsafe condition caused you to fall, you might have a claim for money damages. Property owners in Romeoville are supposed to fix hazards or post adequate warnings to protect people from personal injuries.
Wrongful Death Claims
If your loved one passed away due to the negligence of someone else, you might be able to recover compensation for your losses. The person, company, doctor, nursing home, or hospital that caused or contributed to your loved one’s untimely death through carelessness can be responsible for paying money damages.
Nursing Home Neglect Claims
If your loved one was injured as a result of neglect or abuse at a nursing home or elder care facility, a personal injury lawyer in Romeoville can help you go after compensation and bring the guilty party to justice. The damage from elder mistreatment can leave permanent harm or result in an untimely death.
Other Personal Injury Cases
All of the areas of practice discussed above are examples of personal injury claims, but there are many others, like hit and run accidents, train accidents, bus accidents, pedestrian accidents, catastrophic injuries, and many more. We help people who were hurt because of the carelessness of others.
Proving Liability for a Personal Injury
Most personal injury cases have their basis in negligence. Someone made a mistake, and you were hurt as a result. To succeed in a negligence claim, a Romeoville personal injury lawyer will have to prove the following factors:
- The defendant (person who hurt you) owed you a duty of care.
- The defendant breached the duty of care. When someone’s conduct does not measure up to the legal standard, it is negligence.
- Their negligence caused the accident and your injury.
- You have measurable harm. If you suffered physical injuries, you have quantifiable damages.
