Personal injury lawsuits are known for leading to huge settlements in many cases. If you’ve been victimized by the reckless behavior of another person, company, or property, you need a large payout to help you deal with medical costs and other financial losses. There are some types of personal injury cases that are particularly well-known for leading to significant payouts. Five injuries, in particular, can lead to huge personal injury lawsuit settlements:

1. Auto Accident Injuries

If you’re injured in a car accident, and it’s the fault of another party, you can sue the other party to help pay for your medical costs, your lost income, and your suffering. In some cases, this will be covered through the other party’s insurance, but in particularly egregious accidents, you may be entitled to seek an even larger settlement. In other cases, the other party may not be insured at all, and this can lead to particularly large settlements. Lawyers at Rosenfeld Injury Lawyers serve Chicago residents in auto accident injury cases and many other high-profile injury lawsuit cases. There are many nuances to cases involving car accidents, but insightful legal professionals can help you determine who is at fault, and whether or not you can sue for a huge settlement.

2. Medical Malpractice Injuries

 

Some of the most tragic injuries people experience happen under the watch of professionals who are meant to be caring for them. When it comes to medical malpractice, there are firm, clear-cut systems in place to make sure victims are rightfully compensated. Because these cases can sometimes take a while to play out, however, you must understand what to do every step of the way. Once again, the help of a knowledgeable legal professional can assist you – and ensure that you’re not forgetting any documentation, hearing, or other legal need as you wait for the case to play out. Because these injuries are often severe, they lead to settlements that will cover future medical costs, emotional damages, and more.

3. Workplace Accident Injuries

Workplace accidents are typically caused by poor management, and improper cleaning. Trip hazards, loose wires, malfunctioning electronics, and security oversights are often involved in cases dealing with workplace accident injuries. Many people fail to bring about these suits due to a sense of loyalty to the company they work for, especially if they’ve been with the company a long time. Understanding that it’s not your responsibility to handle workplace safety is the first step. Secondly, you need to document everything surrounding your injury. Interview co-workers, take pictures, and ensure that you’ve filed an official report. Having all of this documentation and evidence will be crucial in winning your workplace accident injury lawsuit. Because these lawsuits can often cause friction between employees and employers, they will often cover lost wages, personal damages, and other costly losses.

4. Product Liability Injuries

When manufacturers fail to ensure a product is safe and functional, it can lead to people being seriously injured. Proving that a manufacturer put dangerous products into the marketplace can be difficult, but with the right legal team and evidence, these suits can be won. Because you’ll typically be suing a large company in these cases, you’ll be in for a large settlement if you win. When one product is malfunctioning, it’s often the case that many other people are experiencing issues with that same product. For this reason, product liability injury lawsuits will often lead to class-action suits. While these types of lawsuits can take much longer to play out, they also pay a lot. Just make sure you seek medical attention as quickly as possible!

5. Slip and Fall Accident Injuries

Despite what many people may believe due to pop culture influence, slip and fall accidents are incredibly dangerous. Broken bones, concussions, spinal cord injuries, and other potentially life-threatening conditions are commonly associated with slip and fall accidents, after all. Once again, this is an injury case that requires a lot of in-the-moment evidence. Interviews with witnesses, pictures of the location where you were injured, and other valuable evidence should be gathered immediately.

Don’t Wait to File Your Case

Time is of the essence when it comes to filing personal injury lawsuits. The longer you wait to file, the more likely it is that you’ll have a hard time proving your case. Gathering evidence, being confident, and having a quality attorney will all help you win your case, and receive a huge settlement. If you’ve been injured through no fault of your own, you deserve to get a large payout that can help you move on with your life in a dignified manner, after all.
