Frequently Asked Questions About Streamwood Injury Claims
What is the first thing I should do after an accident?
Your first priority is your health; seek immediate medical attention. Then, report the accident to the Streamwood Police Department. If you are able, take photos of the scene and your injuries, and get contact information for any witnesses. Before you speak with any insurance company, contact our firm.
How long will my case take in the Cook County court system?
The timeline for an injury case can range from a few months to over a year. While the Cook County system is large, our experience in the Rolling Meadows courthouse helps us navigate it efficiently. The vast majority of cases are resolved through a negotiated settlement before a trial is necessary.
The insurance company offered me a settlement. Should I accept?
You should never accept an initial offer without speaking to an experienced personal injury attorney. These first offers are almost always far less than the true value of your claim. Signing a release will prevent you from ever seeking further compensation for your injuries.
How much is my personal injury claim worth?
The value of your claim is determined by the full scope of your damages, including all past and future medical bills, lost wages and earning capacity, pain and suffering, disability, disfigurement, and the overall impact the injury has had on your life.
