The Chaos After a Crash – What Victims Need to Know

Car accidents happen fast—and the aftermath can be confusing, emotional, and expensive. From hospital bills to missed work, injured drivers in Wisconsin often face a long road to recovery.

Trial Lawyers of Wisconsin is here to make that road easier. Our team helps victims navigate complex legal systems and fight for the full compensation they deserve.

Common Causes of Car Accidents in Wisconsin

Every case is different, but many car crashes result from:

  • Distracted driving (texting, eating, GPS use)
  • Speeding or reckless driving
  • Driving under the influence
  • Failure to yield
  • Poor road or weather conditions

We investigate all contributing factors to ensure liability is properly assigned and our clients are not blamed unfairly.

Who’s At Fault? Understanding Wisconsin’s Laws

Wisconsin uses a comparative fault system, meaning more than one driver can share blame. If you’re less than 51% at fault, you may still recover damages—though your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault.

Example: If you’re awarded $100,000 but found 20% at fault, you’ll receive $80,000.

Our job is to minimize your fault percentage and ensure a fair claim outcome.

Types of Injuries and Compensation

Car accident injuries can be minor—or life-changing. We help clients suffering from:

  • Whiplash and soft tissue injuries
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Back and spinal injuries
  • Concussions and brain trauma
  • Chronic pain or PTSD

We pursue damages for:

  • Medical bills (present and future)
  • Lost wages
  • Pain and suffering
  • Vehicle damage
  • Emotional distress

Dealing with Insurance: The Hidden Battle

Insurance companies often act fast—but not in your favor. Their goal is to settle quickly and cheaply, often before the full extent of your injuries is known.

We communicate directly with insurers, handle negotiations, and—when necessary—take cases to court to ensure you receive everything you’re entitled to.
