Lawyers in Joliet Fighting to Help You Get Your Life Back on Track
Personal injuries can impact every area of your life. The damage done to you extends far beyond just the hassle of dealing with physical injuries. Many who suffer an injury due to another party's carelessness will need time away from work. Some will face prolonged hospitalization or extensive follow-up care. In some cases, your life may even be permanently altered by a catastrophic injury. You may experience significant pain and suffering on top of the financial stress associated with your accident. Fortunately, there may be a way for you to recover compensation for these damages and more by filing a personal injury lawsuit.
Whether you were injured by a distracted driver, a negligent doctor, or a dangerous condition on another party's premises, you may have a right to receive compensation from the party responsible for your injuries. You may be entitled to recover your lost wages, the cost of your continued medical care, and compensation for your noneconomic damages, like pain and suffering. Filing a personal injury lawsuit does more than get you the financial compensation you deserve. It can hold the negligent party accountable for their misconduct and influence them to act more carefully in the future when it comes to the safety of others. After an accident, it is important to act quickly. The sooner you call, the sooner we can begin gathering and preserving critical evidence on your behalf.

We are also skilled in helping those who have been injured on the job obtain Workers' Compensation. If you were performing work for your employer when your injury happened, there is a strong chance that you are entitled to wage benefits and more through the Workers' Compensation program. Even if your claim has been denied, there are still steps we can take to help you appeal your case and proceed to arbitration, where we can represent you. If your injuries were severe, you may even be entitled to long-term payments for permanent and total disability. We will strive to secure any funds you are entitled to.
As you address the ways you have been affected by an injury, we can help you deal with insurance companies and protect your right to receive compensation. Insurance claims adjusters are focused on maximizing profits for their companies and minimizing the amounts paid out to claimants. If you attempt to negotiate with an insurance company on your own, you will be much less likely to obtain the full compensation you need. We can negotiate with these companies on your behalf and ensure that any settlements offered will fully address your medical expenses and other losses. If necessary, we will pursue litigation to protect your rights and interests.
