Do I Have a Valid Personal Injury Claim?
In Illinois, you can only file a personal injury claim if somebody else’s negligence caused you to be injured. To have a valid personal injury case, you must prove the following:
- A person owed you a duty of care
- The person failed to fulfill their duty of care
- You were seriously injured due to this failure
- You would not have been injured if the person had fulfilled their duty of care
Some personal injury cases have more specific criteria. For example, in medical malpractice cases, you must prove that you received care that did not meet established medical standards.
