Working With a Wheaton Car Accident Attorney on Your Illinois Injury Claim

Did you know that most serious accidents that result in an Illinois injury claim settle for more with the help of an experienced Wheaton car accident attorney? It’s true! The knowledge a seasoned attorney brings to your case can help you avoid many of the mistakes claimants make that can damage their ability to obtain a fair settlement.

What Insurance Companies Won’t Tell You – But An Attorney Will!

As friendly and concerned as they may sound, insurance adjusters have one job and that’s to keep as much money in the insurance company’s bank account as they can. While they may seem sympathetic to your Illinois injury claim, insurance adjusters are still only focused on resolving your case for as little as possible.

Your insurance adjuster knows the factors that go into deciding a settlement amount and how those values can be downplayed or even denied. Your Wheaton car accident attorney can give you this same insight into how your Illinois injury claim is handled and help you avoid giving the insurance company the upper hand.

A fair settlement for a serious car accident in Illinois should at least address the following damages:

 

  • current medical expenses;
  • lost wages from being out of work;
  • projected future medical expenses; and
  • estimated future lost wages. 

In many cases, pain and suffering damages should also be awarded to compensate your family for the emotional stress they endure when a loved one is seriously injured or killed in a car accident.

A Wheaton Car Accident Attorney Will Be Honest

Your insurance adjuster won’t tell you these damages are expected to be covered in a fair settlement. In many cases, claimants are lucky to even be offered the full extent of their coverage types. Remember that you may have additional coverage such as underinsured motorist coverage that should be factored into your settlement amount.

If you’ve never really taken the time to review your car insurance coverage, chances are, you’re missing out on important sources of compensation.

Your insurance adjuster isn’t going to tell you voluntarily there are additional resources for you to draw upon – but your attorney will.

Working with a Wheaton car accident attorney will give you an ally in the fight for fair compensation after your car accident. You’ve already suffered enough damage from your accident and injuries; let an experienced attorney help ease some of the burden of settling your Illinois injury claim.

When to Hire a Wheaton Car Accident Attorney

Obtaining a fair settlement straight off from the insurance company is a rare occurrence. In most Illinois injury claims you’ll have to fight for your right to fair compensation.

If there is even the slightest question that your negligence may have played a part in your injury, you will need to prove otherwise if you want to receive the maximum settlement in your case. Your best chance at proving your degree of fault was low enough to recover damages is to have an experienced Wheaton car accident attorney on your side.
