What to Expect When You File an Oak Lawn Car Accident Case in Illinois
After an Oak Lawn car accident, call the police, get medical care, and then contact our team. Our Oak Lawn car accident attorneys will provide a full, free consultation to review your legal options. Most of the time, you will:
- File an insurance claim for all of your losses against the at-fault party’s insurance policy. You can seek compensation up to the coverage limit.
- File a lawsuit against the at-fault driver if the insurance company denies the claim or your losses extend beyond their coverage.
- File a claim for your portion of the losses if you are found partially at fault. Under the modified comparative negligence rules in the state, you can only seek compensation if you are under 50% at fault, and your claim is reduced by the percentage of fault attributed to you.
Our car accident lawyers in Oak Lawn will work closely with you to identify your losses and determine who is at fault. We then seek compensation with an evidence-based claim and negotiate on your behalf. Most cases result in a settlement.
