Personal Injury Lawyers Rockford

Enduring an injury in an accident that was caused by someone else’s negligence is never easy, and accomplishing your fullest recovery can be extremely difficult without the compensation to which you are entitled. This is where our experienced Rockford personal injury lawyers come in. 

Economic Damages

Economic damages relate to those damages that are associated with actual financial losses. For example, your medical expenses and lost wages. Let’s take a closer look:

  • Your Medical Expenses – The most obvious damages you suffer in a personal injury accident are your medical expenses. These typically include emergency care and transportation from the accident scene, surgical care and aftercare, doctor, specialist, and therapist care, prescription medications, and more.
  • Your Lost Wages – Lost wages are another important financial consideration. If you’ve suffered a serious injury, you could lose a considerable amount of time on the job, which can obviously lead to a loss of pay but can also lead to a diminished earning capacity into your future. Finally, if your damages are significant, the very trajectory of your career could be altered. 

Noneconomic Damages

A serious accident can leave you seriously injured, and there are plenty of associated economic damages, but it is also important to consider the noneconomic damages you’ve suffered. Such damages are generally referred to as pain and suffering, and in the state of Illinois, this refers to the physical and emotional stress that you endured as a result of the accident in question. While putting a dollar amount on noneconomic damages is often complicated, there are a variety of factors that can influence the process, including:

  • The seriousness and nature of your injuries
  • Whether the accident led to permanent injury or impairment
  • How the accident affects your daily life
  • Whether your injuries were disfiguring
  • The impact of the accident on your ability to perform your job
  • How the accident affected your ability to continue participating in the leisure activities you traditionally enjoy
  • If you have any lingering discomfort or pain
  • Whether any of your pre-existing conditions were exacerbated

Although putting a dollar amount on your pain and suffering does not follow an exact formula, these damages are very real and should never be discounted.

Every personal injury claim is unique to its own set of circumstances, and these claims are often complicated. While you attend to the important task of regaining your health, your dedicated personal injury lawyer will provide a number of services to help ensure that you obtain the compensation to which you are entitled. These can include:

  • Gathering evidence regarding the cause of the accident
  • Hiring the appropriate expert(s) in support of your claim

  • Negotiating with the insurance company on your behalf
