Accidents happen. Unfortunately, when accidents happen the result can be serious injury or death. When an injury or death is caused by the negligence or carelessness of another, Indiana law provides a remedy. The lawyers at Garau Germano Hanley & Pennington, P.C. can help you pursue your claim under Indiana law.

Claims arising from medical malpractice, defective products and automobile accidents are types of personal injury claims. Others include slip and falls, dog bite cases, and claims arising from improperly maintained premises.

Indiana has special laws for claims resulting in death. In fact, Indiana has three separate wrongful death statutes – one for claims involving the death of an adult with a spouse and/or dependent children; one for claims involving the death of an adult with no spouse or dependents; and one for the death of a child. Each of these wrongful death statutes places limitations on the damages that can be recovered by the survivors of the person killed by negligence.
