How much can I demand in compensation after a car accident in Indiana?
If the insurance company refuses to agree to a reasonable settlement of your injury claim, your attorney may recommend filing a personal injury lawsuit and pursuing your claim in court. A successful lawsuit could provide you with compensation for:
- Hospital bills and other medical expenses you incur due to the accident
- Incidental costs, such as mileage expenses for travel to medical appointments
- Lost wages or benefits, if you were forced to miss work and use up your vacation and sick leave during your recovery
- The projected value of your lost earning potential, if you suffer permanent disabilities
- Pain and suffering due to the crash
