Pain and Suffering
If you wish to file a personal injury claim against someone who has harmed you, you may be able to recover damages for pain and suffering. The damages you seek will depend on your injury and the legal limits (statues of limitations) applied to claims filed within the state of Illinois. These include:
- 2 years for personal injury & medical malpractice;
- 1 year or shorter to file claims against state or local governments
Due to the complexity of measuring damages for pain and suffering, it is advised that you seek counsel from an experienced personal injury attorney such as McHenry County Law. Our role is to advocate on your behalf and seek the damages you may be entitled to. This includes both physical and emotional injuries.
Factors taken into consideration for settlements:
- Circumstances surrounding your injury.
- Type of injury
- Severity of injury and pain involved.
- Length of hospital treatment, physical therapy and/or counseling
- Injury recovery time
- Effect on quality of life
- Career impact
