Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit to file a car accident lawsuit in Illinois?
In Illinois, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This is called the statute of limitations. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to seek compensation.
Does Illinois follow a no-fault or at-fault insurance system?
Illinois uses an at-fault system. This means the driver who caused the accident is financially responsible for the damages. You can file a claim with their insurance company or pursue a lawsuit.
What damages can I recover in an Evanston car accident case?
You may recover economic damages like medical expenses and lost wages. You may also recover non-economic damages for pain and suffering. Illinois does not cap most personal injury damages, but there are limits for punitive damages.
