FAQs
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Illinois?
In most Illinois personal injury cases, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. That deadline can come up faster than people expect, especially when evidence, medical records, insurance claims, and witness statements are involved. There may also be exceptions depending on the type of case, so it is best to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after an accident. Illinois Legal Aid lists personal injury claims as generally having a two-year statute of limitations under 735 ILCS 5/13-202.
Do personal injury lawyers in Rockford work on contingency?
Yes. Most personal injury lawyers in Rockford work on a contingency fee, which means you do not pay attorney fees upfront. The lawyerโs fee is paid from the settlement or verdict if money is recovered for you. If there is no recovery, there is typically no attorney fee. The exact percentage and case expenses should always be explained clearly in writing before representation begins.
What should I do after a car accident in Rockford?
After a car accident in Rockford, get medical help first, call the police, and make sure an official accident report is created. If you can do so safely, take photos of the vehicles, the scene, road conditions, injuries, insurance cards, and driver information. Avoid giving a recorded statement to the insurance company before getting legal advice. Even if you feel โokay,โ some injuries can become more painful hours or days later, so it is smart to get checked out and document everything.
