Components of an Injury Case: An injury case after a car accident involves two main parts: the law of the case (the legal aspects that must be proven in court) and the story of the case (the narrative presented to the judge or jury).
Elements of the Law of the Case: There are three critical elements: liability (determining if the other party did something wrong), damages (assessing the harm caused), and causation (establishing if the wrongful action caused the harm).
Liability Assessment: Liability in car crash cases is often determined by rules of the road and evidence from the scene. It can affect the compensation amount based on the percentage of fault attributed to each party.
Impact of Fault Percentage: In Illinois, the compensation awarded is reduced by the plaintiff’s percentage of fault. If the plaintiff is more than 50% at fault, they receive no compensation. Various scenarios illustrate how fault percentages affect the final award.
Proving Liability: Gathering evidence early, such as police reports, witness testimonies, and photos of the crash scene, is crucial. Insurance companies will try to argue the plaintiff’s fault to reduce or deny the compensation.
