I have known Tina for nearly twenty years of my professional career and had the good fortune of working with her on several cases. She is a tenacious, gritty, and brilliant medical malpractice attorney. Beyond her vast substantive knowledge, she is on the cutting edge of case and litigation strategy in one of the toughest areas of litigation. I love bouncing ideas around with her. Clients adore her and her trusty sidekick Dava. They are simply fantastic people and I look forward to the opportunity to work with them on cases in the future.

Why Choosing the Right Indiana Personal Injury Lawyer Makes All the Difference

When you’ve been hurt due to someone else’s negligence, the outcome of your personal injury claim often hinges on three key factors: the seriousness of your injuries, how insurance companies handle your claim, and the quality of the legal representation you receive. At Christie Farrell Lee & Bell, we focus on each of these areas with precision and compassion to help you recover physically, emotionally, and financially.

Injuries

The nature and extent of your injuries directly impact your case’s value. Whether you’ve suffered broken bones, a brain injury, or long-term trauma, our team ensures that the full scope of your physical, emotional, and financial damages is thoroughly documented and clearly presented. We work closely with medical professionals to make sure nothing is overlooked—because your recovery deserves to be taken seriously.

Insurance

Insurance companies often prioritize minimizing payouts, not your best interests. That’s why we handle communications, negotiations, and denials for you—so you don’t have to navigate confusing policies or tactics alone. Our attorneys are skilled in pushing back against bad faith practices and securing fair compensation from insurers who may try to delay or deny your claim.

Legal Representation

The lawyer you choose matters. With decades of experience representing injured individuals across Indiana, our firm brings a powerful combination of legal knowledge, negotiation skill, and courtroom strength. We fight to protect your rights, level the playing field, and pursue the maximum compensation you’re entitled to—whether through settlement or trial.

Evidence Needed Photo

Evidence Needed in a Personal Injury Case

The first step to building any injury or accident case is gathering information. Photos of any visible injuries or trauma, along with medical records, are the beginning of this process. It’s important for the plaintiff and their loved ones to keep photos of the injury as the healing process occurs. They can document experiences in a journal or make video diaries.

It’s also essential to collect evidence of negligence from the scene. Any police report from the incident will reveal the details documented by the first responders. In addition to these written accounts, it’s essential to have a representative visit the scene personally and take photos as soon as possible. This is especially true in cases like Indiana trucking accident injuries. Cleanup crews may remove evidence within mere hours after an incident. Eyewitness statements and video footage from security cameras can be other valuable sources of proof when building an injury case, especially a car accident case.

Personal Injury FAQ

What is the statute of limitations for bodily injury in Indiana?

The Indiana Code section 34-11-2-4 sets the statute of limitations for personal injury cases at two years, meaning that a victim must file their personal injury lawsuit within two years of the accident or they risk having their case dismissed without being heard.

How do I file a personal injury lawsuit in Indiana?
  1. Check Your Eligibility: Ensure that you have a legitimate injury and grounds to file a lawsuit.
  2. Find a Personal Injury Lawyer: Get advice from a local lawyer to help with your case.
  3. Pick the Right Court: Choose the correct court to file your lawsuit.
  4. File and Deliver Your Complaint: Submit your complaint and make sure the other party receives it.
How is my personal injury case similar to previous ones you’ve handled?

Asking an attorney about your claim is a great way to understand their approach and experience. It shows whether the Indiana personal injury lawyer grasps the unique details of your case, ensuring it isn’t treated like “just another file.” A strong attorney provides both legal skill and personal reassurance, making you feel valued. Also, inquire about their past cases. For instance, if you need an Indianapolis truck accident lawyer, ask about similar verdicts and settlements. If it’s a car accident lawyer you need, see if they’ve handled comparable cases. Such experience demonstrates an ability to establish negligence and secure fair compensation.

What is the maximum accident injury compensation in Indiana?

In Indiana, accident injury claims against government entities are capped at $700,000 per person and $5 million per accident. For other personal injury claims, there is generally no cap on compensatory damages, but punitive damages are limited to $50,000 or three times the compensatory damages, whichever is greater

How is pain and suffering calculated in Indiana?
In Indiana, pain and suffering damages are typically calculated by applying a multiplier to the total economic damages (such as medical expenses and lost wages). This multiplier often ranges from 1.5 to 5, depending on the severity of the injury and its impact on the person’s life. The final amount for pain and suffering is then added to the economic damages to determine the overall compensation.

What Is Personal Injury?

A personal injury case occurs when an individual is injured or killed in an accident and another party may be at fault. When someone is found to be legally responsible for another person’s injury, that’s usually because the person being sued was negligent. The role of a personal injury attorney is to prove this negligence led to the accident that caused the victim physical and/or mental harm. Unlike criminal acts like robbery or murder that lead to jail time, personal injury attorneys prove the damages their clients suffered and get them compensation to pay medical bills and meet other needs.

Only around 4% of personal injury cases end up going to trial—the other 96% are settled in what is called “pretrial,” when legal teams agree about the damages and compensation without a jury or judge making a ruling. Personal injury law firms like us work hard to build cases that represent a client’s best interests and the truth to earn fair and rightful compensation for our clients before or during a trial.

The state of Indiana allows two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. It’s important to speak with a personal injury lawyer in Indiana within that time span to discuss your case and evaluate options. We’re here to help our Indiana residents, including the cities of Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Evansville, Bloomington, Terre Haute, Gary, Lafayette, South Bend, Muncie, Kokomo, Richmond, Crown Point, and other surrounding cities.
