Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do right after a car accident in Oakbrook Terrace?
First, check for injuries and call 911. Exchange information with the other driver, take photos of the scene, and do not admit fault. Contact a lawyer before giving a recorded statement to any insurance company.
How long do I have 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.
What damages can I recover in an Illinois car accident case?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering. Illinois does not cap most personal injury damages, but punitive damages have limits in some cases.
