Accidents happen all the time in Peru and when they do, the victim’s life is often changed forever. If you have been hurt and another person’s negligence was to blame for the accident, you have a legal right to claim damages for your losses. Damages are financial compensation that are intended to make you as whole as possible again after your accident. While you may be entitled to these damages, they are not always easy to obtain. An injury attorney in Peru, IL can help you claim the maximum damages you deserve.
A number of different types of accidents happen in Peru that cause accident victims serious harm. The most common types of claims our injury attorneys handle are as follows:
If you have been hurt in any of the above accidents, you need sound legal advice on how to claim compensation for your injuries. If you have lost a loved one due to the negligent acts of someone else, we can also help you file a wrongful death claim.
You can claim both economic and non-economic damages when pursuing a personal injury claim. Economic damages are easier to calculate, as they have an actual dollar value. Non-economic damages, on the other hand, are intended to compensate you for the losses that are not as easy to quantify. While the damages available in your claim will depend on the facts of your case, the most commonly pursued include:
If you have lost someone you love due to the careless actions of another person, you can seek damages such as funeral and burial expenses, and loss of companionship or consortium in your claim.
Most accident cases will involve an insurance company. Drivers are protected by auto insurance, while property owners are protected by homeowner’s insurance and healthcare providers are also insured. After an accident, it is natural to assume that the insurer will pay you a fair settlement because that is what insurance is there for. Unfortunately, the insurance company is not your friend and is not looking out for your well-being.
An injury attorney in Peru, IL will know how to negotiate with the insurance company, and will not let them use strategies such as shifting the blame to you, to shield themselves from liability. A lawyer will also know when an insurer is acting in bad faith, and when to file a lawsuit against them for misconduct.
If you have been injured due to someone else’s negligence, our injury attorneys in Peru, IL can advise on your case. At Brassfield & Krueger, Ltd., our skilled attorneys will deal with the insurance company on your behalf so you recover the fair settlement you deserve.
