When you or a loved one is injured in a serious accident that was not the victim’s fault, it can feel like no one has your best interests at heart. You may feel uncertainty about the future or your family’s ability to recover financially, physically, and mentally. At Prince Law Firm, we’re here to reassure you that with our experienced Marion, IL personal injury lawyers on your side, full recovery may be an option—as well as the ability to find closure and move forward confidently.
In the context of Illinois and federal laws, filing a personal injury lawsuit with the help of an attorney may award you with financial compensation that can be used to aid the recovery process and recover lost wages, lost earning capacity, and punitive damages such as emotional hardships and suffering. This compensation cannot erase the fact that a preventable accident occurred, but it can go a long way towards encouraging a brighter future.
Civil laws that allow individuals and families to file a claim against a person, group, entity, or corporation that allowed an accident to happen or did not take adequate steps to prevent it are in place to give citizens power to fight back against the wrongdoings and errors of others. With the right personal injury lawyer on your side, you can prove that another’s preventable errors or wrongdoings—a concept we often refer to as “negligence”—caused the accident which directly or indirectly led to injury. After negligence is proven, you may be able to receive the compensation you and your family deserve.
How Can the Right Injury Lawyer Help Me?
When you’re in need of legal assistance, the right law firm and lawyer will be able to advise you as to what your rights are, what options may be available to you, and what steps you should take to seek the recovery you’re entitled to by law. At Prince Law Firm, our goal is to provide our clients with the quality of legal services we would want if we were standing in your shoes. We treat our clients like family because we understand that when you come to us, you’re facing some of the most difficult times you and your loved ones may ever face.
If you’re choosing a lawyer in Illinois, you should ask yourself and your potential legal representative several questions: Is your attorney able to speak with you personally when you need to get in touch? Are they willing to accommodate any special requirements you or your case may have? Does your lawyer have extensive experience handling injury cases? Are they familiar with Illinois personal injury statutes and the laws that would apply in your case?
When asking these questions, consider how their answers apply to your precise needs. It may not be enough, for example, for a personal injury lawyer to have experience with a similar type of case when another lawyer may have experience with your exact type of case and the laws that surround it. Without the required depth of knowledge in a particular practice area, any small detail missed could result in a poor result—and settlement.
At Prince Law Firm, our Illinois lawyers have over 20 years of familiarity and experience with a wide variety of accident and injury cases, including but not limited to car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, slip-and-fall claims, and instances of medical malpractice. We focus on these practice areas because we know that victims injured in these circumstances often suffer from grievous injuries—as well as unfair treatment from insurance agencies and corporate legal departments. We have the experience your case requires, and we know how to handle the opposition.

By filing an injury lawsuit against a negligent party, you may be eligible to receive compensation, often referred to as damages, that can go towards the following costs in the state of Illinois:
- Past, present, and future medical expenses
- Compensation for past and present wages
- Loss of income potential
- Property repair or replacement
- Punitive damages such as pain and suffering
- Permanent disability, disfigurement, or loss of enjoyment of life
It’s important to remember that in the case of a serious accident or complex set of circumstances, you and your loved ones may be unable to receive the compensation you need to move forward from your insurance coverage alone. Your insurance company may also decide to cut corners and costs to save their company money. These examples are just a few of the situations where hiring a Southern Illinois personal injury lawyer may do the most good.
