Why File a Lawsuit?

Filing a lawsuit may be the last thing on your mind after an accident, injury, or loss. While it’s true nothing we do can undo your suffering, we can help you deal with the aftermath of a serious accident or injury. Personal injury law helps ensure you do not have to face the consequences of a preventable accident alone. We will seek compensation (or damages) on your behalf and help make sure the person who harmed you faces liability for their actions.

Damages from a successful personal injury lawsuit can help you account for:

  • Medical bills
  • The costs of rehabilitative care
  • Missed wages
  • Lost earning potential
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of enjoyment of life

In wrongful death cases, you can also recover funds for your loved one’s funeral and burial costs. Some cases are severe enough they call for punitive damages, which punish the wrongdoer and increase your financial security.

Our Matteson personal injury attorney can help you pursue maximum compensation.

Types of Personal Injury Claims

The majority of personal injury claims come from accidents, specifically motor vehicle accidents. Nevertheless, the types of personal injury cases we see at our firm include:

If you have been injured or lost someone to any of the circumstances listed above, please do not hesitate to get in touch today.

Winning Your Case

In most personal injury cases, you recover damages from the defendant’s insurance company. To do this, however, you will need to prove liability and negotiate a fair settlement – both of which are difficult without an experienced personal injury attorney.

Our Matteson personal injury attorney at Panio Law Offices will help you prove negligence by showing:

  1. The defendant (or the person who harmed you) owed you a duty of care
  2. The defendant breached that duty
  3. You were harmed
  4. The harm you suffered is a result of the defendant’s breach

We prove each element above with evidence that can only come from a thorough investigation of your claim. Our team will provide the defendant’s legal team with medical records, police reports, and photos of the accident and your injuries. From there, opposing counsel gets the chance to respond. More often than not, they will offer a settlement to avoid litigation.

We will negotiate to help make sure that your settlement is as high as it can be. Because insurance companies want to avoid courtroom proceedings, most cases settle before trial. With our negotiation skills and willingness to go to court, you can maximize your settlement and resolve your claim with the utmost efficiency.
