Indiana car accidents result in serious injuries and financial losses for drivers throughout the state. Car accidents can occur as the result of a variety of factors, including distracted or impaired driving, speeding or disregarding traffic signals, dangerous road conditions, and even mechanical errors.

If you have suffered an injury as the result of a car accident, you are likely feeling pressured to settle with an insurance company. These companies have one goal: to make money. Often, the way insurance companies make money for themselves is by undervaluing or denying customer claims. Before speaking with an insurance claim representative, make sure your rights are protected.

FAQs About Auto Accidents in Indiana
What should I do immediately after an auto accident in Indiana?
What determines fault in an auto accident?
Fault determination involves multiple parties, including law enforcement officers who investigate the scene, insurance companies that review evidence and potentially courts if the case proceeds to litigation. The final determination is based on evidence such as police reports, witness statements, traffic citations and physical evidence from the accident scene.
What types of compensation can I recover?
You may be entitled to both economic damages, such as medical expenses, lost wages and property damage, as well as non-economic damages for pain, suffering and emotional distress. The specific compensation available depends on how severe your injuries are, the impact on your daily life and the circumstances surrounding the accident.
Do I need an attorney for my claim?
While you are not legally required to hire an attorney, having experienced legal representation increases your chance of receiving fair compensation and protects you from insurance company tactics that minimize payouts. An attorney manages all aspects of your claim, from collecting evidence to negotiating effectively with insurance companies.
What should I avoid saying after the accident?
Never admit fault, speculate about the cause of the accident or provide detailed statements to the other party’s insurance company without speaking with your attorney first. Insurance adjusters are skilled at collecting information that may be used to reduce or deny your claim, so it’s crucial to let your attorney handle all communications with insurance companies.
