Orland Park, IL Fracture Injury FAQs
What types of fractures qualify for a personal injury claim?
Any fracture caused by another party’s negligence may qualify. These include arm, leg, rib, spinal, hip, and facial fractures — particularly when they result in surgery, disability, or lost income.
How do you prove damages for a broken bone?
We use medical records, imaging reports, expert opinions, and documentation of lost wages or reduced ability to work. We also consider the long-term impact on mobility and quality of life.
What if the fracture happened at work?
If a third party — like a contractor, vendor, or equipment manufacturer — caused the injury, you may have a separate personal injury claim. Michael does not handle workers’ compensation cases.
How much does it cost to hire Michael J. Brennan?
There’s no cost to get started. Your consultation is free, and you only pay if we recover compensation for you.
What should I do after a fracture injury in IL?
Immediate Steps to Take:
If you suffer a fracture, your health should be your first priority. However, to protect your legal rights, it is important to:
- Seek immediate medical attention even if the injury seems minor.
- Take photographs of the scene, your injuries, and any contributing factors such as a wet floor or broken railing.
- Report the incident to the property owner, your employer or the police depending on the circumstances. Get information from witnesses who saw what happened.
- Contact a lawyer as soon as possible to avoid mistakes that could harm your case.
Mistakes to Avoid:
- Don’t provide recorded statements to insurance companies without first obtaining legal advice.
- Don’t delay treatment or miss follow-up appointments – this can be used against you.
- Don’t agree to a deal too early – insurance companies often offer quick, low payouts before the full extent of your injury is known.
What is a fracture injury?
A break, crack, or fracture in a bone is called a fracture. Not all fractures are the same; some heal on their own, while others require surgery, physical therapy, and a long recovery period that can last months. Fractures are not only very painful, but they can also have long-term effects on mobility, ability to work, and quality of life.
Legal Basis for Fracture Injury Claims
To succeed in a personal injury claim for a fracture, you must prove that:
- Someone else was negligent or reckless
- That negligence directly caused your injury
- You suffered a loss as a result
Michael J. Brennan, with his experience as a former prosecutor, builds strong legal arguments for his clients. Whether your case involves a careless property owner, a careless driver or an employer, he knows how to hold them accountable.
