Sitting west of Naperville and straddling the Fox River, Aurora is one of Illinois’s largest suburbs.
The city sports a population of 200,000 which places it between Chicago and Rockford in terms of size.
Aurora’s geography is unique as it touches four counties: Will, Kendall, Kane, and DuPage.
As a result, the town is run by a collection of local governments.
These governments are used to dealing with accidents and emergencies in Aurora.
If you get hurt in the area, consider reaching out to an Aurora personal injury lawyer.
Given the size of the city, it’s no surprise that residents can suffer any kind of injury.
Whether it’s an assault, a slip, and fall, a car accident, or even a dog bite, there are plenty of resources that can be useful in the recovery process.
A personal injury lawyer is especially useful for those who were injured at the fault of others.
They can assess exactly how an injury happened and, ideally, win the victim a sum of money by filing a lawsuit or settling out of court.
On this page, you’ll learn about why it might be a good idea to call a lawyer.
The Nolo Plain-English Law Dictionary defines personal injury as:
“An injury not to property, but to the body, mind, or emotions.
For example, if you slip and fall on a banana peel in a grocery store, personal injury covers any actual physical harm (broken leg and bruises) you suffered in the fall as well as the humiliation of falling in public, but not the harm of shattering your watch.”
Personal injury covers a range of legal cases.
This includes injuries due to medical malpractice, another person’s negligence (a car accident, for example), premise and product liability, and even assault and battery.
For a list of potential personal injury cases, visit the TorHoerman Personal Injury Page.
Personal injury cases are common in Aurora, DuPage County, Kane County, Kendall County, Will County, and the state of Illinois.
To get around Aurora, visitors often travel using Pace Buses, the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway system, or their own personal vehicles.
The railway will even take passengers to Chicago.
The highways that run through Aurora are Highway 25, Highway 31, and Highway 34.
Highway 88 borders the city and leads to Chicago.
Highway 34 will take you into Naperville.
As there are many highways and other large roads running through Aurora, traffic accidents remain a common occurrence.
If you suffer a car or truck accident, it’s a good idea to call an Aurora personal injury lawyer to learn how you can get paid.
In the event of an emergency, it’s usually best for you to call 911.
An operator will walk you through the safest steps to take and can send medical personnel to the scene.
Here are some emergency resources you may find useful:
Hospitals. This includes the AMITA Health Mercy Medical Center, Copley Memorial Hospital, and Rush-Copley Convenient Care.
Police departments. Located at 1200 E Indian Trail Rd and 200 S Lincolnway St.
Aurora City Hall. Found at 44 E Downer Pl, Aurora, IL 60505.
Aurora Fire Department. Put out a fire at 75 N Broadway.
Hiring an experienced, successful personal injury lawyer can make a huge difference after your injury.
They will work to ensure your case is as strong as possible so you can focus on your physical and mental recovery.
Damages they will help recover include:
If you’ve never contacted a lawyer before, you may be curious as to what the civil lawsuit process will look like.
Let’s go through it in simple terms.
When you call a lawyer, they’ll ask you some questions about what happened and what you’re trying to achieve.
By getting information from you, they can start to gather evidence, assess damages, and figure out who caused your injury.
If everything goes as planned, your lawyer will either win you money out of court or file a lawsuit.
This will likely be a wrongful death lawsuit if anybody was killed.
If your case goes to trial, your side will argue that someone else caused your injury and that you should receive compensation for it.
It’s up to the court to determine how the compensation should work and whether or not you should receive money.
Personal injury lawsuits vary on a case-by-case basis.
Claims can cover negligence, intentional wrongs, or strict liability.
While every case is unique, there are certain steps injury and accident victims can expect to take for any personal injury lawsuit.
Finding a Personal Injury Lawyer
Seek out a personal injury attorney who is experienced and has a successful case record.
Do not expect that every attorney will accept your case, so give yourself time for research and questions.
Know that Illinois’ Statute of Limitations gives you a two-year window to file personal injury claims before they expire.
Litigation Discovery
After you have a personal injury attorney working for you, the process of litigation discovery will begin.
Your attorney will work to assess damages and collect all relevant evidence, documents, and witness testimonies.
These will all be used to help prove liability.
Resolving Your Case
After reviewing your case and collecting sufficient evidence, your lawyer will decide whether or not to pursue a lawsuit.
Your attorney will determine if there is potential for settlement and if the case involves compensatory or punitive damages.
Some cases are solved outside of court when all parties agree upon a settlement.
If a settlement is not agreed upon, the case could go to trial.
Visit the TorHoerman Civil Lawsuit Process Page for an in-depth explanation.
