How does the tort liability system apply to auto accidents in Illinois?


How does the tort liability system apply to auto accidents in Illinois?

For a specific question, ask your agent.

Generally, if someone causes an accident that injures you, you can sue them for medical bills, lost wages, services you have to hire, pain and suffering, etc. A judge/jury decides what's fair, based on your injuries. IF they have insurance, the policy will pay up to the limit, then you have to try to collect the rest of your damages from them. Minimum limit is $20,000, which doesn't go very far if there are any serious injuries. Good luck.
