Frequently Asked Questions

Straightforward answers to the questions Marker Law clients ask most often about this topic.

Any case where one party's negligence (or intentional act) causes physical or psychological harm to another — car crashes, slip and falls, dog bites, defective products, premises liability, and more. Marker Law focuses on injury claims serious enough to require litigation.

Damages typically include medical bills (past and future), lost wages, lost earning capacity, pain and suffering, and loss of normal life. The biggest variable is medical specials and how a jury would value the human impact — both of which an experienced attorney can develop and document.

Most personal injury cases settle before trial, often after a lawsuit is filed but before a jury is seated. Marker Law attorneys prepare every case for trial from day one — that posture itself tends to drive higher settlement offers.

Generally, compensation for physical injuries is not taxable under federal law. Lost wages, punitive damages, and interest on the judgment can be taxable. Marker Law works with tax professionals when needed to structure recoveries.

Anxiety, depression, PTSD, and loss of normal life are legitimate components of personal injury damages in Illinois. Documentation by a treating mental health professional strengthens the claim significantly.

Two years from the date of injury for most adult cases. Minors generally have until their 20th birthday. Claims against a public entity can be as short as one year — call early.
