CHICAGO, IL – The process between filing a claim and receiving payment for a personal injury can feel like it takes forever, especially when you have bills to pay and financial losses to cover. From the moment your claim settles, you can often expect to receive your settlement money within a few weeks.

Quick Overview of Settlements

A settlement is an agreement to resolve a legal claim out of court. When it comes to personal injury cases, the parties to a settlement are usually the injured claimant, an insurance company that has an obligation to pay the claimant’s losses and (when applicable) an individual or corporate entity that has liability for the claimant’s damages.

Most personal injury claims are settled. The typical personal injury settlement consists of an agreement for the claimant to receive an amount of money in exchange for releasing the parties from liability and terminating any pending legal action against them.

Lawyers will negotiate settlements on behalf of the parties to the settlement agreement; however, the decision to settle a claim rests within the parties themselves. No lawyer can agree to a settlement on your behalf without your permission.

Settlements are generally final meaning you usually can’t reopen them, even if later it turns out that you didn’t receive enough money to cover your personal injury losses. You should only settle a claim when it overs the most favorable outcome you can realistically achieve.

Process Involved in Receiving Settlement Money

Receiving settlement money involves completing a series of relatively standard steps. You can expect these steps to take anywhere from two to six weeks to complete, on average.

Executing a Written Settlement Statement

The obligation to pay settlement money usually arises only once a formal, written settlement agreement has been signed, sealed and delivered. In most cases, the settlement only becomes final when it’s put into writing and signed by the parties or their representatives.

Sending the Money by Check or Wire Transfer

The settlement agreement may set terms for the timing of payment. For example, it can require the insurance company or at-fault party to pay the settlement amount immediately, or it might give them a window of time to pay after the settlement agreement has been executed. Whatever the time period agreed, you should expect the payor to wait as long as possible. Payers, particularly insurance companies, prefer to hold on to their money as long as they can.

The settlement agreement may also spell out how they send the payment. Wire transfers are preferable for personal injury claimants because they’re nearly instantaneous. But payers tend to prefer payment by the much slower means of a paper check, which takes a few days to arrive by mail and up to a week or so (depending on the amount).

Placing the Funds in an Attorney Trust Account

When an attorney represents you in a settlement, the settlement money typically goes into the attorney’s trust account which is a bank account the attorney maintains that is separate from the attorney’s business or personal account to hold client funds.

Paying Liens

Once the money is deposited into the trust account, the lawyer usually uses it to pay for any existing liens on your settlement. A lien is defined as a formal claim against a specific property. When it comes to personal injury cases, it’s common for the injured person’s creditors to have filed liens against settlement funds.

Creditors who may place a lien on your settlement might include medical providers, your own insurance company or child support. Before agreeing to a settlement, be sure to disclose to your lawyer about any accident-related debts you may owe to other liens you have against your assets so your lawyer can address them in your settlement agreement and when handling settlement funds. Failing to advise your attorney about pending liens can land you in legal hot water with the court, creditors or government authorities.

Deducting Lawyer’s Contingency Fees and Case Expenses

Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingent fee basis. This means the fees for their services consist of an agreed percentage of the settlement amount. Your lawyer may have agreed to pay the cost of pursuing your case, subject to reimbursement from any settlement. Before disbursing the funds to you, your lawyer will deduct these amounts from your settlement.

Paying Out the Remaining Settlement Funds to You

After completing the steps listed above, your lawyer will typically send you the remaining settlement funds in the manner you request: either by wire transfer or check. It’s usually up to you to decide where you’d like your lawyer to send you the remaining funds and the type of account to deposit them in.

Factors That Can Delay Receiving Your Settlement Money

Lawyers know their clients want to get their hands on the funds from their settlement as soon as possible; however, some factors can delay the final disbursement to you which may include:

• Settlement Agreement Negotiations
  Even after agreeing on the amount of a settlement, it can take additional time to finalize the agreement in writing. For instance, the lawyers may still need to negotiate the scope of the release you give in exchange for the settlement payment, or whether and to what extend you must keep the settlement confidential.

  Your lawyer must balance your desire to receive funds quickly against protecting your legal interests. You can expect your lawyer to keep you informed about any issues that may delay putting the settlement in writing.

• Court Approval
  Some settlements require court approval. For instance, the court will review settlements made on behalf of minors who have suffered a personal injury to ensure the settlement terms serve the child’s interests. Adding the extra step of court approval can delay your funds.
• Bank Delays
  Depending on the size or source of your settlement payment, it can take time for banks to clear funds as they move from one bank account to the next. Sending money by wire can alleviate some of these delays, but banks must follow clearance and fund settlement procedures. Everyone including the parties and their lawyers must deal with this, even if it means slowing things down.
• Lien Disputes
  Disagreements about how much or whether you owe to a creditor who has filed a lien on your settlement proceeds can delay the reimbursement of your money. This can happen in various contexts. For example, you disagree with a creditor about the size of the debt you may owe. On the other hand, you may dispute that you have had to pay certain medical bills out-of-pocket and believe your health insurance company should pay them instead. These scenarios will ultimately delay your funds since your lawyer will need to take necessary steps to resolve a lien dispute before distributing your money.
• Payor Bad Faith or Breach of Settlement Agreement
  While it rarely happens, delays may arise when the party owing settlement payments acts in bad faith or breaches the settlement contract. Your lawyer will need to take legal action against a party to force them to fulfill their payment obligations to you. You may have the right to seek additional damages for a party’s bad faith conduct or breach of the settlement agreement if this arises.

Can You Do Anything to Speed Up the Settlement Process?

While you may be frustrated by even a short wait to receive your settlement funds, most of the potential sources of delay in receiving your payment are out of your hands. With that being said, there are things you can do to ensure your process isn’t slowed down, such as:

• Provide your attorney with your contact information and tell them the best way to get ahold of you.
• Respond promptly to any requests from your attorney for the information or give them permission to take action on your behalf.
• Provide your attorney will all information you have about accident-related debts and potential liens on your settlement funds arising from other obligations, including tax liabilities or child support.
• Follow your doctor’s orders and lawyer’s advice while your legal action is pending to minimize the number of disputes that may arise over who has liability or the potential size and/or terms of your settlement.

CHICAGO, IL – When you suffer injuries, or significant property damage in a car accident, you may expect that the party that caused the accident, or that party’s insurance company will pay reasonable compensation for your damages; however, the insurance company may fight the claim to reduce the compensation it pays, such as denying liability for the accident.

Video Footage

Any video footage of the car accident, like dash cam footage, can go a long way toward establishing liability. While dash cam footage can only show what occurs within the view of the camera, which means it can’t show things like a rear-end collision, it can provide a clearer view of what happened leading up to the crash, such as which vehicle ran a red light or whether a driver ignored the rules of the road.

Your lawyer may still access video footage of the accident by viewing traffic camera footage or security camera footage from local businesses which can prove who caused the accident.

Accident Scene Photos

Insurance companies can’t go back to the scene of your accident to get a better idea of what variable contributed to the crash; however, they can look at photos of the accident scene which will provide them with essential information about the vehicles’ positioning and the accident scene itself.

Photos of the scene will indicate the damage to both vehicles, the position of the vehicles on the road which can determine which vehicle hit the other, and features of the area like blocking signs that may contribute to the accident or decreased visibility which can make it difficult for drivers to maneuver safely through the area.

Witness Statements

Witnesses who saw your car accident can provide several potential insights into what contributed to your car crash. Witnesses often have a clearer view of the accident than either driver involved. They may offer insights into what obstacles the drivers encountered that increased the risk of the accident or any dangerous behaviors drivers engaged in. Witnesses also usually have no bias related to the accident or the individuals involved meaning they can offer a clearer picture of the events that led to the accident.

It’s important to have witnesses wait until authorities arrive because witness memory can prove less clear than people might hope. Witness memory can fade quickly, making it essential that you contact a car accident attorney as soon as possible.

Expert Evaluation

During some accident claims, the injured party may not have adequate evidence from the accident scene. If you suffered severe or catastrophic injuries, you may have left the scene of the accident in an ambulance leaving you unable to take photos. An expert evaluation of the damage of the vehicles involved in the accident will take a look at the accident scene to help experts recreate the accident and provide insights into who bears liability for the crash.

An experienced car accident lawyer will have experts they can call on to help with accident recreation based on vehicle damage. Thorough documentation and putting off repairs until the investigation has concluded can make it easier for experts to recreate the accident scene.

Police Reports

After any type of accident involving property damage or injury, the victims must report the accident to the local authorities including the police. The police will evaluate the evidence available at the scene of the accident, including taking witness statements, to get a better idea of what likely led to the accident.

A police report is an essential part of many accident claims. The police report lays out the accident’s time, date and location, and the parties involved in a clear way that makes it easier to establish grounds for a car accident claim. Without a police report, it can be much more difficult for the injured individual to establish that the accident occurred and caused the injuries.

Criminal Charges and Citations

Car accidents can occur for a variety of reasons, some being illegal. Take a drunk driver for example which can cause the liable driver to lose their license. Texting and driving or other types of distracted driving behavior can cause considerable consequences.

Medical Records

As part of your car accident injury claim, you may need to provide medical records to the insurance company or present them in court to seek the full compensation you deserve for those damages. Your medical records cover important issues related to your injury claim, including:

• What injuries you sustained which may range from bruising and abrasions to brain injury, spinal cord injury or internal bleeding. As part of your claim, you’ll need to include the injuries diagnosed as part of your medical care.
• When your injuries occurred which will be shown in your medical records after seeking medical attention. It’s important to seek medical attention after any car crash because your injuries may not appear right away and be prolonged. You must prove you have a history trail of seeing a doctor for your injuries, otherwise the insurance company may try to prove you suffered your injuries at another date or time.
• Limitations you experience from your injuries and how long you need treatment. Your doctor will note how your injuries have affected or limited your daily activities.
• Setbacks and complications you sustained in recovery in which medical records will help lay out what losses you dealt with because of your accident.
• Your expected prognosis including what long-term limitations you will likely experience because of your accident and future medical needs.

Your medical records can provide considerable insight into the suffering and losses you dealt with because of your accident and injuries.

Statements from Medical Care Providers

In addition to obtaining your medical records, the insurance company may ask for statements from the medical care provider overseeing your treatment. The medical care provider can provide the insurance company with more information about the specific injuries you sustained because of the car crash and what losses you will likely deal with because of it.

A statement from your medical care provider can offer information about the progression of your recovery, such as how long you will remain in recovery as a direct result of your injuries. Your lawyer may advise getting statements from any medical care providers dealing directly with you as you recover from your injuries.

Medical Bills

The cost of medical care for your car crash and injuries can depend on a variety of factors, including what procedures need to be done, how long your recovery time will be and what type of care you need. Your bills may also depend on the provider that took care of those services.

In some instances, you may need to provide a direct account of what medical bills you paid after your accident, the personal medical insurance coverage used, what you paid, the cost of co-pays and deductibles that you paid at the time of the service.

CHICAGO, IL – Truck accident victims can frequently hold trucking companies legally and financially responsible for employing negligent drivers, failing to maintain their fleet or violating trucking regulations.

Negligent Hiring and Retention

Negligent hiring and retention can form the basis for a trucking company’s liability for a truck crash. This occurs when a trucking company fails to screen, hire or retain competent and qualified truck drivers. A trucking company can face liability for an accident traced back to its negligence in hiring or retaining a driver.

For example, a trucking company can be held liable for an accident if the evidence shows it hired or retained a driver with a history of drug or alcohol abuse, traffic violations or inadequate qualifications or licensing. You can also hold a trucking company liable if it retained a driver despite knowledge of dangerous conduct, including repeated safety violations or failures to comply with trucking regulations like hours of service requirements.

A skilled trucking accident attorney can prove negligent hiring or retention by securing relevant information on the driver’s background, previous traffic violations, employment records, and drug and alcohol test results. An attorney will also look for evidence that the trucking company ignored red flags or failed to take appropriate action when informed about a driver’s dangerous behavior.

Establishing a connection between the trucking company’s negligence and the accident is critical for a successful claim based on a trucker’s deficient hiring or retention.

Negligent Training and/or Supervision

Truck drivers go through training and supervision to ensure they operate commercial vehicles safely and follow relevant regulations. All trucking companies must train and supervise their employees responsibly. Inadequate training or supervision may result in trucking accidents, leading to a potential liability for a trucking company.

Some examples of negligent training and supervision include failure to provide safety training or establish operational protocols, inadequate instruction on vehicle operation, disregard for regulatory requirements or negligence about a driver’s qualifications to operate a truck.

An experienced truck accident attorney will gather evidence demonstrating a trucking company’s failure to provide proper training or oversight to establish liability based on negligent training or supervision. This will include employee records, collecting training materials, internal communications and witness testimony about the company’s day-to-day operations and interactions with its employees.

Negligent Cargo Loading and Securement

Proper cargo loading and securement are critical in the trucking industry to ensure the safety of the truck driver and other drivers on the roads. Trucking companies can face liability when incorrectly loaded or inadequately secured cargo shifts or spills during transit cause an accident.

Accidents due to improper cargo loading or securement include rollovers or loss of control when shifting cargo that makes a truck unstable, explosions or spills of flammable or toxic cargo and collisions resulting from cargo falling or spilling onto a road. Cargo-related accidents can lead to severe injuries, property damage and fatalities.

Holding a trucking company liable based on cargo-related issues involves analyzing the company’s interview process for employees, loading cargo, examining cargo manifests and weight tickets, and reviewing crash footage for signs of shifting or spilled cargo.

Liability Due to Failure to Comply with Trucking Regulations

The trucking industry has strict regulations. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations govern a variety of safety-related aspects of trucking operations in interstate commerce, such as driver qualifications, hours of service, vehicle maintenance and hazardous materials transport. State agencies promulgate similar regulations dictating standards for intrastate trucking operations.

A truck crash often implies that the trucking company has violated safety regulations. If so, a legal doctrine known as negligence per se may help a truck crash victim’s attorney in proving the company’s liability. Under this doctrine, a violation of law will establish liability if it leads to an accident.

Relying on negligence per se to prove a trucking company’s liability can simplify and strengthen your case. Your attorney will gather and present clear evidence of a regulatory violation resulting in the trucking company having little choice but to acknowledge liability for your losses.

Potential Compensation for Truck Accident Injuries

The law may entitle you to recover a variety of damages from a trucking company after you were injured in a truck accident due to the driver and/or trucking company’s negligence. You can seek compensation for the physical, financial and emotional harm you suffered from any liable party for your losses.

You may receive compensation for:

• Medical expenses in treating crash-related injuries and health complications
• Other expenses related to living with or adapting to your injury
• Physical pain and discomfort from an injury or any medical treatment
• Emotional suffering and mental health challenges resulting from the injury
• Diminished enjoyment or quality of life
• Loss of independence
• Scarring, disfigurement or loss of bodily function
• Loss of income and job benefits from missing work due to your injuries
• Loss of future earnings and benefits due to a disability caused by the truck accident
• Cost of repairing or replacing a damaged vehicle or personal property

Contacting a Personal Injury Lawyer Who Will Hold the Trucking Company Liable

You can hold a trucking company liable for losses you suffer when it has engaged in negligent hiring or retention, training or supervision, vehicle maintenance or inspection, cargo loading or securement and violation of trucking industry regulations; however, proving that liability and holding a trucking company accountable for a crash victim’s losses takes the work of a skilled, experienced truck accident attorney.

If you or someone you love recently suffered injuries in a truck accident, there’s a good chance a trucking company owes you significant compensation. Don’t wait to get the legal help you need. Reach out to a personal injury attorney right away so they can get started on the claim process.

CHICAGO, IL – Losing a loved one in a car accident is a painful, traumatic and excruciating experience for the surviving family members. Not only do you have to face the emotional pain that comes with losing a loved one, but you may also deal with financial hardships resulting from the unexpected loss. When another driver’s negligence contributes to an untimely death, a family can file a wrongful death claim to seek justice and compensation for the damages.

Wrongful death claims vary from state to state

Wrongful death laws differ from state to state meaning that the specific rules and requirements governing your claim will depend on the state where the accident occurred. For instance, some states may impose caps on the damages awarded in wrongful death cases, while others may require claimants to follow specific procedural requirements.

A skilled wrongful death lawyer can explain the laws that apply in your particular case and how they can affect the outcome of a claim or possible lawsuit. Discussing the local statutes and regulations in a case can help you know what to expect. Laws that can affect your case include the deadline for filing your claim, the specific elements of negligence you must prove and the types of damages you may recover.

You’ll want to hire a lawyer who is familiar and understands these rules because even minor mistakes or oversights can lead to the dismissal of your case or a reduction in the compensation you receive.

Consulting a wrongful death attorney

Given the complexity of wrongful death laws and the variations between jurisdictions, consult with a local attorney with prior experience handling wrongful death claims. The wrongful death lawyers at the Dinizulu Law Group will help you navigate the legal process, ensuring that your claim adheres to the relevant statutes and regulations while also vigorously advocating to maximize your chances of recovering damages for your loved one’s death.

Wrongful death statute of limitations

Each state has its statute of limitations that dictate the time frame within which you must file a wrongful death claim. The time limits typically range from one to three years from the date of the decedent’s death. In some states, the clock begins from the time of the misconduct leading to the death.

Missing the deadline that the statute of limitations sets can have severe consequences for your wrongful death claim. In most cases, the court will dismiss your claim, which means you lose the opportunity to recover any damages for your loved one’s death. Given these implications, you must act promptly and consult with an attorney as soon as possible to avoid losing your legal rights.

Establishing negligence for a wrongful death lawsuit

To succeed in a wrongful death claim, you must prove the defendant was negligent in causing the death of your loved one. Negligence requires establishing four key elements: breach of duty, duty of care, causation and damages. Your attorney will help guide you through these elements and gather the necessary evidence to support your claim.

• Breach of duty of care occurs when the defendant fails to uphold the legal obligations to act in a reasonably safe and prudent manner. For example, a driver who speeds, disregards traffic signals or drives under the influence of alcohol breaches their duty of care to others.
• Causation in a wrongful death means proving that if the defendant had acted responsibly, your loved one would not have died. A wrongful death lawyer can help you gather proof to establish causation and support complex claims.
• Gathering evidence to prove negligence may include obtaining police reports, witness statements, accident scene photographs, medical records and expert opinions. A lawyer can also analyze this evidence to identify a legal argument that supports your claim, increasing the likelihood of a favorable outcome.
• Damages in wrongful death claims is intended to compensate the surviving family members for their loss. These damages fall into two categories: economic and non-economic. Economic damages cover quantifiable losses including medical expenses, funeral and burial costs, and loss of income and support. Non-economic damages compensate for non-tangible losses such as pain and suffering, loss of companionship and emotional distress.

Parties involved in wrongful death claims

A wrongful death claim may involve various parties due to the impact of the untimely death of your loved one. As you navigate through the wrongful death claim process, it will help you to know how each part can affect the process and outcome of your claim:

• The personal representative of the deceased’s estate is the person who typically files a wrongful death claim. This individual is responsible for ensuring the settlement of the deceased’s debts, taxes and overseeing the distribution of assets to the appropriate beneficiaries. In many cases, the deceased will name the personal representative; however, if it doesn’t, then the court will appoint a suitable person.
• Common eligible family members include spouses, children and parents of the deceased. In some cases, siblings, grandparents and other relatives may be eligible to claim damages depending on the circumstances and state laws.

An experienced wrongful death lawyer will help guide you through the complex legal process and ensure you receive fair compensation for your loss. They will help you understand your rights, gather evidence, calculate damages, negotiate with insurance companies and navigate the court system.

Hiring an experienced attorney with a background in representing clients in wrongful death claims will increase the likelihood of a successful outcome and alleviate some of the stress and burden associated with pursuing legal action after losing a loved one.

Insurance coverage for wrongful death accidents

Insurance policies often play a significant role in wrongful death claims, as they can be a source of compensation for surviving family members. It’s important to review all applicable insurance policies, such as those covering the deceased, the at-fault party and other relevant parties.

An example of policies that may cover losses includes life insurance, homeowner’s insurance and auto insurance. An experienced wrongful death attorney will help you understand the coverage available and how it can impact your claim.

Potential limitations and exclusions

Insurance policies have limitations and exclusions that can affect the compensation available in a wrongful death claim such as some policies not covering certain types of accidents or damages, or having a policy limit that caps the compensation they pay out during a claim.

Working with a skilled lawyer who can thoroughly review and analyze the insurance policies involved is essential to determine any potential limitations or exclusions that may impact your case. Furthermore, a wrongful death lawyer can help you determine if there are other avenues to seeking justice and damages against the parties responsible, including a civil lawsuit.

Negotiating with insurance companies

Dealing with insurance companies can be a challenging process. Insurance adjusters often deny or minimize claims, leaving families without the compensation they deserve.

An experienced wrongful death lawyer can negotiate with insurance companies on your behalf to work towards a resolution that protects your rights and reflects fair compensation in light of the loss you have endured. Your lawyer will handle all communications and documentation while helping you navigate any disputes that may arise during the process.

How can an expert witness help in a wrongful death claim?

Expert witnesses can benefit you in wrongful death claims since they provide specialized knowledge and expertise to help establish negligence, causation and damages. They can offer critical insights and testimony that may affect the outcome of your case.

You may need various types of qualified, credible and experienced expert witnesses to support your wrongful death claim. Your attorney will work to identify and retain the appropriate expert witness(es) to ensure relevant and persuasive testimony.

Wrongful death settlement negotiations and litigation

When pursuing a wrongful death claim, you may have the option to settle the case out of court or proceed to trial. Each option has its pros and cons. Your attorney will discuss which route is best suited for your claim.

Settlement negotiations can lead to a quicker resolution of your claim, but you can receive less money through settlement than a successful trial.

On the other hand, going to trial offers the possibility of a higher reward; however, it comes with increased costs, potential delays and inherent uncertainty around the outcome.

CHICAGO, IL – When you’re putting your life in the hands of someone else, you should be able to trust them completely — especially a medical professional. Unfortunately, sometimes the trust between a doctor and a patient is sometimes broken. Everyone makes mistakes from time to time, even doctors, but medical professionals are held to a higher standard due to the level of responsibility they have to provide care that protects a patient’s health and well-being.

Medical malpractice occurs when a doctor fails to meet these standards and causes harm to a patient due to their negligence. There are certain elements you must prove in order to have a case for medical malpractice. Read this week’s blog as we dive into this more.

Components of medical malpractice cases

To pursue a medical malpractice case in Illinois, you must prove that all of the following has occurred:

1. Violation of the Standard of Care
   The most basic element to prove medical malpractice is to prove your doctor committed an act of negligence or violated the standard of care. There are certain practices considered deamable in the medical field, even if your doctor deviated from it, you may have a case for establishing negligence. Examples of negligence may include a misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose, failure to order tests or act on test results, not following up with the patient, misprescribing medication or leaving items inside of a patient during surgery.
2. Injury Was Caused by the Violation
   You cannot have a medical malpractice case without an act of negligence and an injury that resulted from that negligence. If you have an injury without negligence or negligence without injury, you do not have a medical malpractice case.
3. Damages Resulted From the Injury
   Damages from the injury are what you can claim in court. Due to the cost of litigating medical malpractice cases being so high, it might not be worth it to pursue compensation unless damages are severe or extensive. Viable damages can include suffering, extreme or constant pain, hardship, loss of income, significant medical bills or permanent disability.
