Personal Injury

Injuries do more than cause you pain: they can disrupt your life. Dealing with medical bills, lost income, and ongoing pain are just some of the adjustments people have to make after an injury, and these disruptions can hinder your road to recovery. However, when someone else is responsible for your injuries, they may be liable for the associated costs.

From accidents on US-20 and I-15 to work injuries at area employers including Idaho National Laboratory and Eastern Idaho’s agricultural and industrial sectors, our Idaho Falls personal injury lawyer can help you take control of your situation, holding the negligent party accountable while pursuing the compensation you deserve. Parke Gordon Law in Idaho Falls, ID can guide you through each step, helping you avoid costly mistakes.

What Is a Personal Injury Claim?

Personal injury claims are a way for people to seek compensation for their injuries due to someone’s negligence. State law allows you to seek compensation for both economic and non-economic damages. Establishing liability requires showing that another party failed to act with reasonable care and that failure caused your injuries.

Under Idaho Code § 5-219, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years from the date of the injury. Missing this deadline can prevent you from ever recovering compensation. Early action is critical, not only because of the statute of limitations, but also due to the threat of disappearing evidence.

A personal injury attorney in Idaho Falls will review the facts of your case, identify liable parties, and begin building a strategy designed to support your claim. This process often includes gathering records, consulting experts, and preparing evidence that supports your damages.

Compensation Available After an Injury

Recovering compensation is about more than covering your medical bills; it looks at all of the costs associated with the accident, including intangible costs. A serious injury can affect your ability to work, maintain your routine, and support your family. You may be able to recover damages for:

  • Medical expenses, including ongoing treatment
  • Lost income and reduced earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress

Idaho follows a modified comparative negligence rule under Idaho Code § 6-801, which means your compensation may be reduced if you are partially at fault. If your share of fault reaches more than 50 percent, you may be barred from recovery. Our lawyer in Idaho Falls will work to minimize any injury claims of fault against you, strengthening your case and protecting your ability to recover damages.

Frequently Asked Questions

Very few of our cases go to court now because we have an established reputation with insurance companies, which we have earned through 25 years of representing clients in accident litigation cases. Insurance companies know we are serious about fighting for our clients, so they make good settlement offers to resolve our client’s claims without going to court.

We understand the value of an accident case and will file a lawsuit if the negligent party’s insurance company makes a low-ball settlement offer. If the insurance company refuses to pay what is fair, we will ask the jury to award what is fair.

Both mediation and arbitration are considered alternative dispute resolution methods – alternatives to going to court. Mediation involves a voluntary settlement conference. The parties choose a respected attorney or former judge to help the parties reach a fair settlement. The mediator does not decide the case but simply tries to get the parties to agree to a settlement.

Arbitration is when the parties choose a respected attorney or former judge to decide who is right in a proceeding that is simpler and less costly than a jury trial. Arbitration involves submitting evidence and making arguments to the arbitrator. The arbitrator then issues a binding decision.
