How Our Personal Injury Lawyers Can Help Your Case

Types of Compensation in an Indiana Personal Injury Lawsuit

Damages in Indiana personal injury claims and lawsuits generally fall into three categories: economic damages, non-economic damages, and punitive damages.

Economic Damages

Non-Economic Damages

Commonly referred to as general damages, non-economic damages are typically more difficult to quantify because there are no financial statements, bills, or other documentation that assigns them a monetary value. Since these losses are subjective, an Indiana personal injury attorney will usually use the amount of the victim’s economic losses as a base when determining their worth. Non-economic damages might include:

  •  Disability
  •  Disfigurement
  •  Loss of enjoyment
  •  Loss of companionship
  •  Mental anguish
  •  Pain and suffering

The Elements of an Indiana Personal Injury Lawsuit

Four elements must exist for a personal injury lawsuit to be successful in Indiana.

1. Duty of Care

The first step in proving negligence in a personal injury claim or lawsuit is to establish that the defendant owed a duty to the victim to exercise reasonable care. Since motorists, bicyclists, pedestrians, and property owners typically owe a duty of care to people in their vicinity.

2. Breach of Duty

The second element that must exist is that the defendant did not exercise reasonable care, therefore breaching his or her duty. To establish breach of duty, a personal injury attorney might prove that the defendant was texting and driving, speeding, or drinking and driving. In premises liability cases, the lawyer might show that the property owner failed to remedy a dangerous condition.

3. Causation

Causation is the third element that must exist in a personal injury claim or lawsuit. To satisfy this element, a personal injury lawyer will need to show that the defendant’s failure to exercise reasonable care was a cause of the victim’s injury. In cases where multiple factors contribute to causing an accident, legal liability is typically divided in proportion to each defendant’s degree of fault.

4. Damages

To recover compensation after an accident in Indiana, the victim must have suffered actual economic or non-economic harm as a result of the defendant’s negligence. There is nothing to compensate the victim for, after all, if no injury exists. To satisfy this requirement, a personal injury lawyer might submit documentation like medical bills and records or paycheck stubs to the court or have witnesses testify how the injuries have impacted the person.

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Cases in Indiana

According to the Injury and Violence Prevention Program of the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH), car accidents cause the most unintentional deaths in Indiana, accounting for approximately 41.5% of accidental fatalities in the state.

Personal injury lawyers take a contingency fee, meaning they only get paid if they win your case. This fee typically ranges from 33% to 40% of the settlement or court award. The exact percentage can vary based on the complexity of the case and whether it goes to trial. At Langer & Langer, we clearly explain our fee structure during your free consultation so you know exactly what to expect—no surprises.

It depends. More than 80% of personal injury cases settle out of court in Indiana. If the insurance company fails to offer a fair settlement, however, your case may go to trial.

Pain and suffering in Indiana refers to compensation for physical pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment caused by an injury. It’s a non-economic damage without a fixed value, but attorneys and insurance adjusters often use the multiplier method (multiplying medical expenses) or the per diem method (assigning a daily rate) based on the injury’s severity and impact. Ultimately, a jury decides the amount, considering factors like injury severity, duration, impact on quality of life, and strength of evidence.

Winning a personal injury lawsuit can be challenging and depends on proving negligence, causation, and damages. While many cases settle out of court, about 3% go to trial, with plaintiffs winning roughly 52% of those cases. Your chances improve significantly with a skilled personal injury attorney, but no outcome is guaranteed.

No. At Langer & Langer, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront, and our fees come out of your settlement or verdict only if we win your case.

Indiana generally has a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims, but there are exceptions. It’s important to consult with an attorney promptly to protect your rights.

For your first meeting with a personal injury attorney, bring any medical records, accident reports, insurance information, photographs of injuries or accident scenes, and contact details of witnesses. The more information you provide, the better we can assess your case.
