Frequently Asked Questions About Geneva Injury Claims
What should I do immediately after an accident in Geneva?
First, seek medical attention for your injuries. Then, report the accident to the appropriate authorities, such as the Geneva Police Department or Kane County Sheriff. If possible, take photos of the scene and gather contact information from witnesses. Before speaking with any insurance company, contact our firm.
How is my case’s value determined?
The value of your claim is based on several factors, including the total cost of your medical treatment (past and future), the amount of income you have lost, the severity and permanency of your injuries, and the impact the accident has had on your quality of life.
Will I have to go to trial at the courthouse in Geneva?
While the vast majority of personal injury cases are settled out of court, we prepare every case as if it will go to trial. This thorough preparation and our reputation as skilled litigators often lead to much higher settlement offers from insurance companies who want to avoid facing us in court.
The insurance company wants me to sign a release. Should I?
Absolutely not. Never sign any documents or accept any settlement from an insurance company without first having an experienced personal injury attorney review it. You could be signing away your rights to the full compensation you are legally entitled to receive.
