Illinois comparative fault — and why it matters locally
Illinois follows a modified comparative negligence rule: your compensation is reduced by your share of fault, and if you are found more than 50% at fault you recover nothing. Because of this, insurers often argue that the injured person shared the blame. A careful investigation of how the crash happened helps answer those arguments.
Frequently asked questions — Aurora car accidents
How much does it cost to hire a car accident lawyer in Aurora?
Nothing up front. We handle Aurora car accident cases on a contingency fee — you pay no fee at all unless we recover compensation for you.
How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Illinois?
Illinois generally allows two years from the date of injury for most personal injury claims, but exceptions and shorter deadlines can apply. Because evidence in Aurora disappears quickly, speak with an attorney right away.
Do I have to go to court in Kane, DuPage, Kendall, and Will Counties?
Many car accident claims resolve without a trial. If a lawsuit is filed, the courthouse depends on where the crash happened, where the parties live, and the size of the claim. For Aurora, that may be the Kane County Judicial Center in St. Charles. We can explain which court applies to your case.
