Do Not Settle Your Personal Injury Case at a Discount:
Ask Your Prospective Attorney About their Past Trial Results

The vast majority of personal injury cases in Indiana do not go to trial. They settle well before that, either during pre-trial negotiations, in the early stages of litigation, at mediation, or even on the steps of the courthouse moments before trial begins. That said, this reality does not diminish the importance of hiring a lawyer with extensive trial experience. In fact, it is one of the most important considerations when determining the value of your case.

Having trial experience helps personal injury clients get the best settlement possible because the insurance carriers and defense attorneys know that you will not settle your clients’ cases for cheap or at a discount.

At Yosha Cook & Tisch we strictly advocate for people rather than corporations. We treat every case we accept as if it could proceed to a jury trial. Our firm is equipped to battle toe to toe with the largest corporations to take your case the distance if necessary.

Louis Buddy Yosha has won nearly 100 jury verdicts and is considered one of the best personal injury attorneys in the country.

Compensation for Personal Injuries Under Indiana Law

Fair compensation for serious personal injuries in cases occurring in Indianapolis or anywhere throughout Indiana extends far beyond reimbursement for medical expenses. Depending on the degree of your injury, awards can include any or all of the following.

Medical bills, including all follow-up visits, any required medical devices, medications and physical therapy
Pain and suffering, which is largely determined by the discretion of the jury
Lost wages and earning capacity for as long as you cannot perform your usual occupation
Physical impairment that remains after all possible medical treatment has been completed
Loss of affection, which may be granted to family members who depend on the victim for emotional support
Scarring that qualifies for reimbursement of plastic surgery expenses when the scars cannot be removed

We also seek punitive damages when we can prove that the defendant acted with malice, fraud, or gross negligence. Skilled attorneys always make a difference in Indianapolis personal injury cases.

State laws governing personal injury differ throughout the United States. As such, it is important to retain local lawyers to handle your case.

Our Firm's History

Recovery Of Damages

Personal injury victims often overlook or undervalue damages. Insurance companies frequently exploit this lack of knowledge by offering settlements that inadequately compensate personal injury victims.

If you have been seriously injured, you are entitled to reasonable compensation, which may include:

Pain and Suffering

There is no formula or instrument to measure the pain and suffering of another human being; however, juries have liberal discretion in assessing damages. This is the primary area where the assistance of experienced counsel can be beneficial.

Lost Wages and Lost Earning Capacity

This damage is determined by your continued inability to work at your usual occupation resulting in the financial loss of earnings or profits and future impairment of earning capacity.

Physical Impairment

Once you complete your medical treatment and rehabilitation and reach maximum medical improvement, a medical healthcare professional can evaluate your degree of physical impairment based on injury, pain, and loss of mobility, sensation, and strength.

Loss of Affection

Under the law, family members who are dependent on the personal injury victim for emotional support are entitled to recover from loss of love and affection.

Scarring

We have plastic surgeons examine your scars to see if surgical revision is appropriate and determine how much such a procedure would cost. Scars that cannot be removed require additional compensation.

Medical Bills

Personal injury victims are entitled to recover the full and fair value of their medical bills.

Punitive Damages

Punitive damages may be awarded when clear and convincing evidence shows that the defendant acted with malice, fraud, gross negligence, or oppressiveness that was not the result of a mistake or fact or law, honest error in judgment, overzealousness, mere negligence, or another human failing.
