What Happens In A Personal Injury Case

While many personal injury cases are settled outside of court, sometimes this isn’t possible. When this happens, your attorney will likely take the responsible parties to court in what’s called a litigation. In litigation, the court, usually consisting of a judge and jury, will take a close look at your claim and the evidence supplied to determine whether you should be compensated for damages and injuries that occurred as a result of the incident.

In court, the strength of your claim depends heavily on how the accident and your injuries are illustrated and described. It’s possible that the defending party, which may be a person, a company, or an insurance company, will try to make their own case to say that you were at fault — in whole or in part — or that your injuries are not as bad as you say they are.

In Indiana, comparative fault rules dictate that even if you’re found to be partly responsible for the accident, as long as the degree of your responsibility does not exceed 51%, you may still be able to recover damages. The damage amount would just be reduced according to the percentage of fault you’re held responsible for according to the court ruling.

There are a lot of ins and outs to the law and what you’re required to provide. Hiring an experienced and compassionate attorney — one who will really listen to you and fight for your rights — can bring peace of mind as you navigate the days and weeks after an accident. We encourage you to call us as soon as possible so Team Green can get started fighting for you.
