Your Christian County, IL, Injury Claims Lawyers

There are countless ways you can be injured. In your own home, getting into a car accident, slipping and falling at work, and any number of other situations that may cause you harm. The key to winning a personal injury case is proving negligence. There are a couple ways to go about this. Below, we list the basic elements of proving negligence:

  1. Reasonable Duty of Care: We as a society have a moral “duty of care” in everyday interactions. Proving there’s a duty of care is the first step in proving negligence after an incident. For example, it is a business owner’s “duty” to protect their patrons from harm, such as fixing a hole in the floor or faulty wiring.
  2. Breach: The next step in proving negligence is showing how the negligent party “breached” their duty of care. An example would be a driver fails to stop at a stop sign and hits another car. They know they were supposed to stop, but breached their duty of care by not doing so.
  3. Causation: Put simply, causation is what caused the breach, like a landlord not salting a metal fire escape. This is the negligent act that breaches the duty of care.
  4. Damages: Lastly, there must be financial damages. Financial harm may include lost wages, medical bills, and other expenses we will discuss further down the page.

You can also view our other areas of this site to learn more. If you want additional information about the process for filing a claim, contact us firm today.

  • What are the odds my case will go to trial? The odds say no. Roughly 5 percent of personal injury claims make it to trial. This is because at-fault parties like a business or negligent driver don’t want the claim to go public. It’s usually beneficial to all involved parties to settle out of court, though our Christian County claims attorneys have trial experience and will go to trial on behalf of our clients if the case is worth more than the original settlement offer.
  • How much compensation can I get? Compensation depends on a variety of factors. Compensation is determined by looking at pain and suffering, wrongful deaths (if any), medical expenses, and other financial hardships. Investigate similar case results for a rough estimate or ask your injury lawyer.
  • What kinds of cases do you take? Our firm specializes in many different areas of injury and employment law.
