Involved with
MotorVehicle
Accidents in
Illinois
AIM Illinois is a blog focusing on personal injury attorneys and their
stories. One of the most common areas in personal injury litigation
is motor vehicle accidents, and this site focuses primarily on
attorney stories involving car accident cases.While this site
originally discussed the stories of Illinois lawyers alone, we’ve
expanded our scope to personal injury lawyers nationwide.
We hope that these narratives give insight into what types of motor
accidents occur, which accidents are most frequently brought to
court, how lawyers handle each case depending on its unique
factors, and how clients can use this information to benefit their
cases.

3. Types ofCar
Accidents
There are many types of car accidents that can occur, and each one varies in
severity. Animals in the road, car malfunctions, bad road conditions, and bad
weather can cause single-car accidents. Driver negligence such as speeding,
driving under the influence, improperly changing lanes, drowsy driving,
distracted driving, or failing to yield can cause multi-car accidents.
Driver negligence can also cause pedestrians, bicyclists, and scooter accidents. Other
types of car accidents can involve motorcycles and trucks. Knowing how a wreck
happened and who was involved can be the first step in identifying who’s liable for
the wreck.

4. Proving
Negligence in
CarAccident
Cases
The attorneys in many of the stories we share do an excellent job of
proving negligence in the car accident cases they represent. Proving
negligence can be difficult when there is no initial evidence to
consider. Many lawyers must thoroughly investigate the wreck in
question and gather photographs, witness testimonies, and video
footage to uncover the facts
Evidence can be the key to pinpointing the liable party and holding
them liable in court. Once negligence is proven against the
defendant, a lawyer will try to maximize their client’s claim by
accounting for all the damages that their client has suffered. Both
economic and non-economic damages should be considered.
Economic damages can comprise financial losses such as medical
expenses, lost wages, and property damages, while non-economic
damages can comprise non-financial losses such as pain and
suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, scarring and disfigurement,
emotional distress, and loss of consortium.
