Personal Injury Lawyers

If you or a loved one have been involved in an accident or incident that resulted in a personal injury, it’s important to know whether you have a claim. As stated in Illinois’ personal injury statutes, certain elements must be proven in order for the victim (or plaintiff) to recover the compensation they deserve. For example:

  • You were owed a duty of care
  • The duty of care was broken
  • The breach of the duty of care caused your injuries or losses
  • Your injuries or losses led to compensable or actual damages

To explain this concept further, day care facilities have a duty to care for your children when you are unable. You place your trust in the employees to provide ample care from when you drop your children off in the morning until you pick them up in the evening.

When this duty is broken and your child is neglected or injured, it’s likely your child and yourself have suffered losses. In turn, the losses can lead to a variety of damages, such as medical bills, future expenses, and more. In this case, you have ample grounds to file a personal injury claim against the day care center.

Types of Personal Injury Damages

Just as no two personal injury claims are the same, the possible damages that can result also differ. In addition to the damages you’re entitled to, the overall value of your case can also vary, based on the injuries sustained and how severe they are. Below is a list of potential damages:

  • All medical costs, such as ambulance fees, surgery costs, medication expenses, and other medical costs
  • Expenses for projected future medical treatment related to the accident or incident
  • Lost income or wages associated with time taken off work due to injuries or disabilities
  • Lost future earnings and wages that result from disabilities preventing the victim from working
  • Both physical and emotional pain and suffering
  • Counseling services and other costs associated with treatment for trauma related to the accident or incident

Damages Resulting From Wrongful Death

In the unfortunate case of wrongful death from an accident or incident due to another’s negligence, certain members of the victim’s family are able to seek compensation for:

  • Funeral expenses
  • Loss of income
  • Loss of household/child care services
  • Medical bills
  • Loss of consortium, companionship, guidance, and support

Drunk Driving Compensation in Peoria, IL

Another personal injury case involves the negligence of a drunk driver. Motorists on the road have a duty of care to keep others safe by obeying traffic laws. When this duty of care is breached due to intoxication, victims and their families are entitled to seek damages including potentially punitive damages. Punitive damages are meant to punish, deter or prevent negligent drunk drivers from harming others in the future.
