You deserve support after a serious accident. However, it’s not always easy to know when you have the right to hold someone legally accountable for the negligence that caused your accident.  The Crown Point personal injury lawyers with Vaughan & Vaughan have helped clients like you secure millions of dollars from the parties liable for their losses. If you’re ready to have an experienced attorney defend your right to recover, contact our team. Your first case consultation comes free of charge.

Duty of Care and Personal Injury Cases

Your right to file a personal injury claim against another party depends on your ability to prove that the named party owed you a duty of care. The term “duty of care” describes the responsibility one person has to the people around them. To uphold their duty of care, people must take reasonable steps to help their peers avoid preventable and predictable accidents. People who willfully or accidentally engage in negligent behaviors violate the duty of care they owe to the public. You need evidence to prove that a specific party caused your personal injury accident by violating the duty they owed you. Fortunately, our attorneys in Crown Point can help you gather the data you need to make your claim.

Working With the Right Lawyers

If you want to address a recent personal injury accident, we can oversee the creation of your accident claim. Depending on the nature of your accident, you may find yourself working with our: All of Vaughan & Vaughan’s attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. Our contingency fee agreements ensure that you can preserve your financial well-being while still benefiting from tried-and-tested legal representation. Moreover, meetings with our lawyers come free of charge. You can schedule a case evaluation and discuss your right to recover without worrying about the meeting’s impact on your bank account.

Crown Point Personal Injury Lawyers Establish Liability in Your Case

As mentioned, you need evidence to hold specific parties accountable for your personal injury losses. Our personal injury attorneys in Crown Point make it easier for you to gather the data key to your case by getting our hands on:
  • Video footage of your accident
  • A police report speculating about fault
  • Statements from witnesses
  • Expert witness testimony
  • Pictures from before and after an accident
  • Electronic data
This evidence may name unexpected parties responsible for your losses. For example, if you get into a car accident, your car’s manufacturer is as likely to be at fault for your losses as the other drivers on the road. Fortunately, our team stands ready to demystify the process of assigning liability after a serious accident. It’s our job to make sure your experience within Indiana’s civil system is as straightforward and transparent as possible.

We Fight for Your Right to a Fair Accident Settlement

You deserve the opportunity to maximize the compensation you walk away with after a personal injury claim. Our team makes it easier for you to do so by calculating the total value of your economic and non-economic accident losses. The losses we integrate into your request for support may include the following:
  • Emotional distress
  • Reduced quality of life
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish
  • Property damage and restoration
  • Emergency medical expenses
  • Long-term medical bills
  • Temporary or permanent disability
  • Lost wages

We don’t Let Insurance Companies Play With Your Future

In an ideal world, you’d be able to count on an insurance company to help you cover the cost of personal injury losses. In reality, insurance companies and insurance claims adjusters may take aggressive steps to deny any claim you bring forward after a serious accident. You don’t have to stand by and let these parties play with your future. If you find yourself dealing with an insurance company’s bad faith behavior, you can ask a personal injury lawyer to step in. Our team can call out bad faith tactics and even take an insurance company to court should the need arise.

We Stay on Top of Your Filing Deadlines

Indiana has a strict personal injury statute of limitations set in place. This statute strives to keep the cases that come before Indiana’s civil judges as up-to-date as possible. Many civil judges in Indiana believe that cases with evidence that are more than two years old no longer accurately describe the nature of the accident they’re addressing. With that in mind, barring a few exceptions, you must submit a personal injury claim within two years of your accident. That deadline only changes if you are under 18 at the time of the accident. Any party under the age of 18 has until they turn 20 – or two years after they reach adulthood – to file a claim against a liable party. Alternatively, minors may request that their parents or guardians act on their behalf. You can discuss the logistics of representing a minor with our Crown Point, IN, personal injury attorneys.

I have been involved in a couple accidents that havent been my fault. My other attorney was horrible...he never called back, never explained anything. If you asked questions, he would make me feel as if I were incompetent. Elizabeth is amazing! She goes above and beyond to make sure to answer any questions and to follow up on everything! Elizabeth always calls or emails back typically the same day. More times than not, she will get back in just an hour or less of leaving a message. I know I'm not their only client, but the way I am treated, makes me feel as if I am. I knew my previous attorney was horrible by the end of it all, but didnt realize just how horrible until I hired Vaughan and Vaughan.

I was involved in my first serious car accident and didn't know what to do. The other party had admitted fault and their insurance company wanted to offer me a very low dollar amount to settle. When I sensed that something was amiss, I immediately called Mr. Vaughn at Vaughn & Vaughn Law Firm. He and his staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. They took me through the process step-by-step and made sure that I was comfortable and informed with all decisions made. Mr. Vaughn was not only able to address my medical, property, and personal expenses, he also considered the physical long-term effects of my health as a result of this accident. I was able to settle for a much higher dollar amount that they initially offered. I would highly recommend his services to anyone. If he cannot help you, he will refer you to someone who can. As his firm truly believes, once you hire the firm of Vaughn & Vaughn, you are a part of the family.
