Hiring Schaumburg Personal Injury Attorneys

Personal Injury Lawyers SchaumburgThe surviving family members typically file a wrongful death claim for compensation when their deceased loved one has been the victim of negligence or malicious action by others. Pursuing compensation for a wrongful death is an extensive process with intricate stages, making it difficult to predict the length of time and complexity of the case to bring it to a successful conclusion.

While many wrongful death claims are settled out of court to avoid presenting evidence in front of a judge and jury, others require court intervention. Cases for compensation are built on complex Illinois tort law. Because of that, it is crucial to have a personal injury attorney who can comprehend and implement applicable statutes to develop a strong winning strategy.

Skilled Schaumburg personal injury attorneys working on behalf of surviving family members often hire investigation experts to explore case law relevant to the claim, gather evidence and speak to witnesses. In detail, the attorney will use a variety of tools and tactics during the discovery phase to solidify the case. These can include:

  • Request for Production – The attorney working on behalf of the client will make a request from the defendant to provide tangible evidence to inspect and copy
  • Interrogatories – Every major player in a wrongful death lawsuit is required to answer written questions under oath, which will be shared with all counsel
  • Depositions – Typically, every major player will be required to complete a deposition where a court reporter records every answered questions under oath.
  • Request for Admission – The attorney will typically ask major players to admit or deny specific facts to minimize the lengthy process of the wrongful death claim
  • Motion to Comply – Many times, the parties at fault for causing the wrongful death will fail to provide a response to a discovery request when the attorney is seeking evidence in the case. A skilled lawyer can file a motion to compel compliance or as a way to ask the presiding judge to impose a sanction against all non-responding parties

In many incidences, the case proceeds to trial because the defendant and surviving family members are unable to reach a financial agreement.

"I was very happy that we decided to hire these attorneys to help me with a hit and run accident that left me in the hospital for three weeks. After getting the run around from the insurance company, these guys took care of getting all of my medical records and bills and were able to get the case settled in about 90 days.
