Most Asked Topics
What if my car accident injuries didn’t appear immediately?
Some injuries like whiplash, concussions, or soft tissue damage may not show symptoms for days or weeks. Seek medical attention promptly and keep detailed records. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, delayed onset injuries are common in car accidents, and Indiana’s statute of limitations typically begins from the date of injury discovery, not the accident date.
What if my accident involved a pedestrian or cyclist?
Car accidents involving pedestrians or cyclists require specialized legal knowledge. Our attorneys handle pedestrian accident and bicycle accident cases with experience in these unique liability situations.
Do I need a lawyer for a minor car accident in Indianapolis?
Even minor accidents can result in delayed injuries and complex insurance issues. Insurance companies often try to minimize claims, so having legal representation protects your rights and ensures fair compensation.
What if I was partially at fault for my Indianapolis car accident?
Under Indiana’s modified comparative fault rule, you can still recover compensation if you’re less than 50% at fault. Your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. If you’re 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover damages under Indiana Code 34-51-2-6.
Will my case go to court?
Most car accident cases are resolved through settlements with insurance companies. However, if a fair agreement cannot be reached, our attorneys are fully prepared to take your case to trial.

You may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical bills (past and future)
- Lost wages

- Wrongful death (if a loved one passed away)
Can I still recover damages if I was partially at fault for the accident?
