Do I Have a Personal Injury Case?

It’s important to understand that you do not automatically have a personal injury case if you incurred harm during an accident in Lake County. To determine whether you should pursue such a case, ask yourself the following questions:

  • Did I suffer from a minor or major injury?
  • Was my injury the result of the negligence of another party?
  • Did my injury leave me with damages such as medical bills, lost income, emotional distress, and pain and suffering?

If you answered “yes” to all three of these questions, you likely have a valid case and should consult a Lake County personal injury lawyer right away.

What to Expect From the Lake County Personal Injury Process
