Frequently Asked Questions About Indiana Personal Injury Claims
Should I talk to the insurance adjuster after an accident?
In most cases, no. Anything you say can be used to reduce your claim. It is safer to speak with an attorney first.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Indiana?
Indiana generally allows two years from the date of injury, but waiting can weaken evidence and negotiating power. Please call an attorney as soon as possible as there may be other, shorter deadlines.
What if the insurance company says I was partly at fault?
Partial fault does not bar recovery unless it reaches 51 percent. An attorney can challenge unsupported fault claims.
Do I have to accept the insurance company’s first offer?
No. Initial offers are often intentionally low. You are not required to accept them.
How much does it cost to speak with a personal injury lawyer?
Consultations at the Marc Lopez Law Firm are free, and you pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you.
