Our personal injury lawyers have extensive experience in helping victims recover compensation for a wide range of injuries. We understand that every case is unique, and we tailor our legal strategies to each client's specific circumstances. We have successfully handled a variety of personal injury cases in Fishers, and we are here to help you too. The following are some of the most common types of cases we handle in Fishers:
In Fishers, auto accidents are a prevalent type of personal injury case. However, they are also quite complex due to the numerous factors that can influence them and the amount of compensation that might be owed. Speeding, driver distraction, poor road or weather conditions, and vehicle defects are all potential causes of car accidents. These accidents can result in severe injuries that might have long-term effects on the victim.
If you have been in an accident involving a commercial truck or a motorcycle, we can also assist you. These cases are comparable to regular car accident claims but with additional complexities. However, multiple parties could be responsible for the injuries sustained in these situations. Our team can ensure that each party that bears some responsibility for your damages is identified in your case.
Our firm also frequently handles personal injury cases involving slip and falls. Such injuries can occur for various reasons, such as inadequate lighting, uneven floors, or wet surfaces. Commonly, such mishaps happen in businesses like grocery stores, retail stores, bars, and restaurants. However, proving liability in these circumstances can be challenging if you do not know what to look for. Usually, the property owner is legally responsible for compensating you. Nevertheless, other parties might also be liable for the safety of the premises where you got injured and should be included in your case to ensure maximum compensation.
Accidents involving pedestrians can result in severe injuries or even death. In the event that you are struck while walking on the sidewalk or crossing the street, you have the option to take legal action against the responsible party. Pedestrians can sustain serious injuries from collisions, such as head and spinal cord injuries, resulting in costly medical bills. These cases can be challenging, as some drivers might flee the scene after colliding with a pedestrian. Nonetheless, we are here to investigate your case and help to identify the driver responsible for your injuries.
When a product is poorly designed or made with substandard materials, it can lead to injury. If you have been injured in this type of situation, you might have a defective product claim. These products can range from toys and cars to medications. For instance, if you buy a car with faulty brakes and end up in an accident because of it, you might be able to sue the manufacturer and designer of the product. Nevertheless, it can be challenging to identify where in the production process the defect occurred and collect sufficient evidence to prove that the company that created the product is accountable for the harm you suffered.
When a doctor, nurse, or other medical professional acts negligently during treatment, it is considered medical malpractice. The consequences of medical malpractice can be severe, resulting in permanent disability or even death. It is possible for victims not to realize they have been injured until years later. Although these cases can be complex, an attorney can assist you in gathering evidence to obtain compensation for your injuries. If you do not discover your injuries until much later, you might have additional time to file your claim, as most personal injury cases have a specific time limit to file.
In order to receive compensation for a personal injury case in Fishers, it is necessary to establish four key elements. These include duty, breach, causation, and damages. If any of these elements cannot be proven, it will be difficult to demonstrate that the other party was responsible for the injuries, and you will not be successful in your pursuit of compensation. Therefore, it is important to understand what is required in order to prove your personal injury case successfully.
In legal terms, duty pertains to the obligation that one individual owes to another. For instance, every driver is responsible for driving safely and abiding by traffic laws for the benefit of other drivers on the road. If a driver violates this responsibility by speeding or failing to obey a stop sign, they might be held accountable for any damages caused by the incident. Similarly, medical experts must provide their patients with the same level of care that another medical professional would.
When a defendant fails to fulfill their legal duty, it is considered a breach of that duty. Consider what happens when a driver disregards a red light and, as a result, causes an accident. In this case, the violation of traffic laws would be considered a breach of their duty to drive with care for others on the road.
Proving causation can be difficult since it requires demonstrating that the injuries sustained were a direct result of the defendant's actions. This often involves ruling out the possibility of other parties or the plaintiff being responsible for the damages and ensuring that prior injuries or medical conditions are not to blame. However, if it can be shown that the injuries would not have occurred were it not for the defendant's actions, then this requirement can be proved.
In order to demonstrate the full extent of your damages, it is important to provide documentation of any medical bills and lost wages you have incurred. Additionally, any records related to therapy or other non-financial damages you have experienced can be useful in illustrating the impact of the incident.

Don is a founding partner and one of the nation’s top-ranked personal injury litigators. He is a member of the Multi-million Dollar Advocates Forum, which includes less than 1% of the nation’s trial lawyers, and awarded the highest ranking given by Martindale Hubbel and AVVO.
More importantly, Don understands representing personal injury victims is about more than recovering the best settlement: it’s about helping clients get back on their feet and supporting them in every aspect of their recovery.
In nearly all cases, our clients seek compensation from the wrongdoer’s insurance company. Before forming Wruck Paupore, Jason worked for a prominent law firm representing some of the world’s largest insurers. This experience gives Jason a deep understanding of the insurance industry and the strategies it uses to pay injury victims as little as possible.
Jason -- and our entire team -- put this inside knowledge to work to force insurance companies to pay what is actually owed. Often, we use the insurance company’s own tactics against them as we fight for the full compensation our client deserves.
For more than four decades, Keith has been fighting for injury victims. During that time, he’s watched the insurance industry change, with insurers now more interested in protecting their stock price than treating injury victims fairly.
Since the beginning, Keith has put people first. From his childhood in Gary, Indiana during the 1960’s and working his way through law school, Keith has risen to become one of the Midwest’s most respected trial lawyers. He has never forgotten that being a lawyer is about helping people -- and seeing injury victims through struggles in a way that could change their lives forever.
Over the decades, Keith, Don and Jason have fought relentlessly for clients, even when other lawyers have said the case was impossible to win.
