Find Your Way With an Indianapolis Injury Lawyer
An injury or accident can change your entire life. One fraction of a second can be the difference between the life you planned and the life you feared. Luckily, injury lawyers in Indianapolis can help you to pursue compensation for the trouble you experienced.
Injury attorneys can help you get through cases in a variety of ways. The earlier you call an injury lawyer, the better. Injury lawyers in Indiana start collecting information about the accident as soon as they can to recreate what happened as accurately as possible. With all the available evidence they can help you determine and prove who was at fault in the accident.
Indiana injury lawyers can provide continuous guidance to walk you through complicated legal processes. They will also act as a negotiator with insurance companies so you don’t have to. Larger businesses might use a variety of strategies to try and get you to accept a lower settlement offer than you deserve. Our lawyers understand these tactics and will make sure you do not fall victim to them.
Our legal experience includes attorneys across several practice areas, including medical malpractice, personal injury, products and premises liability, nursing home and elder abuse as well as seasoned Indianapolis car accident lawyers for automotive or transportation accidents. Regardless of case type, WKW is dedicated to restoring the lives of our clients.

Potential Compensation for Your Indianapolis Lawsuit
The value of a settlement is determined on a case-by-case basis. Each reward is based on the severity of an injury and the size of the liable party. The more of an effect an injury has on your daily life, the more you will likely be compensated for expenses. There are three main types of damages for an Indiana personal injury case:
- Economic damages — These are benefits received to cover monetary expenses, such as medical bills, lost wages, auto repair fees, etc.
- Non-economic damages — These benefits are meant to compensate for non-monetary expenses, such as the pain and suffering an individual endures as a result of their injury.
- Punitive damages — In some cases an additional fine will be added as an attempt to dissuade the defendant from repeating their actions. These only happen when the defendant commits acts of gross negligence or acts with malice.
These categories will be added together to determine the final total. There’s no cap for the amount of money you can receive from a personal injury case in Indiana.
