07 — FAQ

Personal Injury FAQ.

You may have a case if someone else's negligence caused your injury. Three elements must be present: the other party had a duty of care, they breached that duty, and their breach directly caused your injuries and resulting damages. A free consultation with our attorneys can help determine whether your situation meets these criteria.

Seek medical attention immediately, even if your injuries seem minor. Document the scene with photographs, collect contact information from witnesses, and report the incident to the relevant authorities. Avoid giving recorded statements to the other party's insurance company before speaking with an attorney.

You can seek economic damages (medical bills, lost wages, future medical costs, lost earning capacity) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life). In cases involving particularly reckless conduct, punitive damages may also be available.

Case value depends on the severity of your injuries, the impact on your ability to work, your medical expenses, the degree of the other party's negligence, and the available insurance coverage. Our attorneys evaluate every factor to pursue the maximum recovery for your situation.

The majority of personal injury cases settle before trial. However, insurance companies offer higher settlements when they know your attorney is prepared to go to court. Karasik Law Group prepares every case as if it will go to trial, which strengthens our negotiating position.

Most cases resolve within 6 months to 2 years, depending on the complexity of the case, the severity of injuries, and whether you have reached maximum medical improvement. Cases that go to trial take longer. We keep our clients informed at every stage of the process.

In most personal injury cases, you have three years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. Medical malpractice claims have a shorter deadline of two years and six months. Claims against government entities require a notice of claim within 90 days. Acting quickly is always better, as evidence can be lost or destroyed over time.

Karasik Law Group works on a contingency fee basis. You pay nothing upfront and owe no fees unless we recover compensation for you. We advance all costs of litigation.
