Arlington Heights Injury Lawyer

If you’ve been injured in an accident that was caused by someone else’s negligence, you are likely under considerable stress. Such injuries are not only painful but can also be extremely costly. In order to successfully travel the often-lengthy path toward your most complete recovery, you’ll need to be compensated fully for the injuries you sustained. An experienced Arlington Heights injury lawyer will skillfully fight for your rights and for the compensation to which you are entitled.

Your Medical Expenses

If the negligence of someone else leaves you injured, your medical expenses are likely to be extensive and may include:

• Emergency treatment and emergency transportation
• Surgery and aftercare
• Doctor, specialist, and therapist appointments
• Rehabilitation
• Adaptive physical devices
• Prescription medications

If you’ve sustained a serious injury, your medical costs can be exorbitant, and you should discuss your right to compensation with the right local injury law firm.

Your Lost Wages

In addition to medical expenses, a serious injury is likely to affect your ability to earn a living – either temporarily or permanently. Even with a minor injury, there may be lost hours and wages from missing work. Sustaining a significant injury, however, can have more far-reaching effects:

• It can diminish your earning potential in the future.
• It can derail your career goals.
• It can negatively affect your sense of self – most of us closely associate our careers with our unique sense of self. 

Underestimating the effect your injury will have on your work-life can leave you struggling financially. Consult with an Arlington Heights injury lawyer to help ensure that your rights are well-protected.

Your Pain and Suffering

In addition to the medical expenses and lost wages associated with your injury, there’s the physical and emotional pain and suffering involved. These are the noneconomic injuries you suffer, and they can be considerable. While these damages can be difficult to quantify and, thus, measure, there are several factors that are typically taken into consideration:

• The nature of your injuries
• The physical and mental pain associated with your injuries
• Any disfigurement that results
• Any impairment to your ability to engage in (and/or enjoy) activities that you were previously able to engage in (and/or enjoy)
• Any aggravation to a preexisting condition
