We’ve Seen the Real Impact of Personal Injuries, We Demand Justice for Those Affected 

When people think about personal injury cases, they often focus on the physical pain and medical expenses. While these are undoubtedly significant, the true impact of a serious injury cannot be captured with medical bills alone.
Attorney Grant Dixon and his team know that cases like yours often require compensation for:

Physical Injuries and Symptoms

The acute pain from an injury is usually just the first symptom our clients experience. Many accident victims face subsequent medical challenges that can include:

• Multiple surgeries
• Extended rehabilitation
• Chronic pain
• Permanent disabilities
• Cognitive impairment
• Secondary complications such as infections and blood clots

The severity of an injury directly affects the financial cost the victim suffers. Your Hickory Hills personal injury lawyer will become acquainted with your doctors, injuries, symptoms, and medical needs.

Financial Devastation

The financial impact of a serious injury can be shock-inducing. A barrage of medical costs, unpaid bills, property-related expenses, and workdays missed can make you truly desperate. The moment you hire us, we will instill the type of calm and assurance that only a capable personal injury attorney can.

Emotional and Psychological Symptoms 

The psychological impact of a serious injury is rarely apparent immediately. It takes time for the true scope of trauma to emerge, and your symptoms might include:

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
• Mood changes
• Chronic pain
• Disfigurement
• Loss of independence
• Lost quality of life

It’s fair to say that many clients come to us with a looming sense of dread. Because of someone else’s carelessness, their lives are suddenly ruled by uncertainty and worry. We will not only fight for fair compensation for your pain and suffering, but we will also help you get any mental health treatment that you need.

Disruption of Your Day-to-Day Life, Including Your Relationships

Most injuries don’t just affect the injured person. They impact entire families. Spouses may need time off work to care for a loved one. Children may lose the joyful, engaged parent they so enjoyed before injuries left that parent in immense pain.
For the injured person, losing their joy for life can degrade their social life, strain their family relationships, and make life much more difficult. Our case in Hickory Hills will reflect any challenges the at-fault party thrust upon you through their negligence.

How We Create Strong Personal Injury Cases

Rarely do insurance companies just hand a fair settlement over. Liable parties must be convinced and, in some cases, compelled to pay claimants. We create such compelling cases through the following:

• Establishing clear liability: The foundation of any personal injury case is proving that someone else was at fault for your injuries. We use evidence and clear, rational arguments to prove who is financially responsible for your damages. 
• Seeking evidence of negligence: Evidence can disappear quickly after accidents. Personal injury attorneys know how urgent the evidence-gathering process is, and it will be one of our priorities after you hire us. They may even need to demand that certain parties preserve evidence, and are prepared to do that right away.
• Documenting injuries: Medical records, diagnostic tests, physician reports, and other records help us prove the immediate toll of the at-fault party’s negligence. We are lawyers, but we speak the medical language thanks to years of representing injured clients. We have strong relationships with healthcare providers in Hickory Hills and nearby locales, so we can ensure you get the care you need (and we get the documentation we need).
• Leveraging expert witnesses: Some personal injury cases rise to the level of their expert witnesses’ strength. If an insurance company says you’re at fault for your injuries, and we say you’re not, convincing expert testimony can be a powerful tie-breaker.
• Precise valuation of damages: One of the most significant challenges in personal injury cases is determining what a case is truly worth. An accurate calculation requires a thorough understanding of both your current damages and the long-term impact those injuries will have. Our Hickory Hills personal injury attorney knows how to calculate damages, but this is another process in which we work closely with and rely readily on the experts.

Then, we fight. Attorney Dixon is an experienced, fearless negotiator who stands behind his settlement demands. You need us to deliver compensation that keeps you on solid ground for the foreseeable future, and we won’t wilt if insurance companies engage in bad-faith tactics—we will fight for you.

We Stand in the Fire So Our Clients Can Heal

One more note: Personal injury litigation can be emotionally taxing for clients. They have to relive the traumatic experience, undergo harsh questioning from defense attorneys, and expose their pain to strangers. We will shield you from such challenges; our compassion for clients informs everything we do.
We promise to stand tall for you through every difficult moment, and we’ll fight just as hard for you as we would for our own flesh and blood.

We Want Our Clients to Thrive After the Case Is Complete, Here’s How We Ensure That

Receiving compensation for your injuries is often just the beginning of your journey toward rebuilding your life. A successful personal injury case can provide the financial foundation you need to move forward, but it’s essential to understand how to make the most of your settlement or judgment.
Our approach to client service goes above and beyond the (necessary) legal stuff, as we ensure our clients get:

• Medical care and rehabilitation: We want you to receive the best available medical care. As healthcare is a constant in many of our client’s lives, we will fight for compensation to help cover your various medical needs. 
• Planning for the future: If your injury has long-term or permanent effects, we need to plan for your future needs. This planning might include modifications to your home, specialized transportation, ongoing medical care, or retraining for a new career if you can’t return to your previous job. We always ensure our clients see the long-term view, and we will take the same view when valuing your case.
• Financial management resources: Large settlements can be life-changing, but they can also be overwhelming to manage. We facilitate clients working with qualified financial professionals to invest and protect their settlement money. In some cases, structured settlements that provide regular payments over time might be more beneficial than a lump sum payment.
• Tax assistance: While personal injury settlements are generally not taxable, there can be exceptions, particularly for punitive damages or interest on the award. We make sure our clients understand the tax-specific implications of their financial recoveries.

We want to help you get back to living. Whether that means traveling to see family, pursuing hobbies you love, or simply having the peace of mind that comes with financial security, your compensation should help rebuild your life after your injury.
