Working With Medical Experts in Serious Injury Cases
Some car accidents result in life-altering injuries that require extensive medical treatment and long-term planning. When the nature of an injury is complex, expert medical insight can help clarify diagnosis, treatment needs, and the long-term effects the client may face. At Haxel Law, we are prepared to consult with qualified medical professionals whose input can help accurately reflect the full impact of the injury.
Medical experts may assist with evaluating:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Severe fractures or orthopedic injuries
- Internal injuries
- Burns and disfigurement
- Chronic pain or long-term mobility limitations
Medical professionals can provide detailed assessments that help document the severity of the injury, establish the connection between the accident and the medical condition, and explain how the injury may influence your future health and earning capacity. Their involvement can be especially important in cases where the insurance company disputes the extent of harm or attempts to minimize the long-term consequences of the injury.
Handling All Interactions With the Auto Insurance Company
After a car accident, insurance companies typically move quickly, often before the injured driver fully understands the scope of their injuries or financial losses. Insurance adjusters may ask questions, request statements, or propose early settlements that do not reflect the full picture. Let our Quincy car accident attorneys handle these communications on your behalf, helping prevent missteps that could affect the outcome of a claim.
When we act on your behalf from the start, we can manage:
- Communications with insurance adjusters
- Requests for documentation or recorded statements
- Evaluation of settlement offers
- Deadlines, filings, and compliance matters
- Disputes over liability or the value of the claim
How a Successful Claim Can Help You Recover Financially
The aftermath of a car accident often brings a long list of unplanned expenses. Ambulance transportation, emergency care, imaging tests, follow-up appointments, vehicle repairs, and time away from work all contribute to financial strain. A personal injury claim can provide compensation designed to address these losses and other damages that were not adequately covered by insurance, helping you re-establish financial stability after the crash.
In addition to economic losses, injuries can also affect your day-to-day life in ways that aren’t easily tracked on paper. Pain, emotional distress, and long-term limitations may reduce your ability to participate in activities you once enjoyed. You can ask us about seeking compensation for these non-economic damages as well.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How Much Is My PI Claim Worth?
Determining the value of your claim can be complex. It can be easy to overlook many types of compensation available to you, especially without an in-depth understanding of Illinois law. Seeking legal representation is essential to identify liable parties and calculate the total damages in your claim.
While pinpointing the exact value of your claim requires a thorough case evaluation from our attorneys, you should know that you are entitled to compensation for all losses incurred in the accident, including future costs resulting from your injuries. Our firm can negotiate effectively on your behalf to pursue the full compensation available to you.
-
How Long Will It Take to Resolve My Claim?
It depends. The timeframe for settling a personal injury claim will vary based on unique factors, such as whether the insurance company is willing to make a fair offer, any potential liability disputes, and whether your case goes to trial. Many claims are settled out of court, but others can take more time to resolve. However, taking longer to settle isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
While preparing for potential litigation may extend the duration of your case, it can also mean the difference between recovering maximum compensation and walking away with much less than you deserve. Our attorneys are familiar with insurance companies to pursue the fastest path to resolution without compromising the just settlement you need to focus on your recovery.
-
Should I Talk to the Insurance Adjuster?After an accident, you should avoid discussing the incident with any insurance representative without your lawyer present. Having your attorney speak directly with the insurance adjuster on your behalf is typically best to protect your rights. If you do end up talking with the insurance adjuster, you only need to provide basic information, such as your name, address, and so on. Don’t share any information that may be used against you, such as apologizing or admitting fault.

"I will definitely use Haxel Law again!"I’m so grateful for the legal assistance I received from Haxel Law. Martin is extremely knowledgeable and guided me throughout the process. I recommend Martin Haxel. He’s no nonsense and gets the job done. If needed I will definitely use Haxel Law again.- Sally B.

"Thank you, Martin."When I got injured, I knew I was going to be out of work. I knew I was going to be struggling with my family. I was really worried about the direction my life had turned towards. If I hadn't contacted Martin Haxel. I would still be fighting to get what I deserved. What was owed to me. Mr. Haxel however, stayed with me. He told me the truth. He didn't lie, or manipulate anything. He was honest and informative. He was the hope I didn't have at that time. He struggled with me to get all of it resolved. He did it with integrity, honesty, and a sincere understanding of what I was going through. To anyone considering having Mr. Haxel represent them in similar situations...I would say, you couldn't pick a better person. He's a great lawyer. He does great work. He's a nice person with a lot of experience in this field. If there's anyone you can turn to when no one will listen or even attempt to help you do what is right...Mr. Haxel is the one. I can't say enough good things about him. Now that my case is settled thanks to his work, I'm going to miss having someone having my back. He's a good man and I hope he feels good about what he's done when he lays down to sleep and reflects on his days, weeks, months, and years. People like him, give people hope, and faith that there are good people still roaming around this crazy thing called life. Martin, thank you. You're a beast.- Chris Y.

"No One Better"I was referred to Martin by my original attorney. My original attorney didn't want to spend the time and money to represent me because my case was going to be difficult, time-consuming, and against the City of Champaign.

If you have a "hidden injury" like me or even an obvious injury Martin will handle it very professionally and give it the attention that you deserve.- John M.
