Broken Bone Injuries โ€” More Serious Than You Think

While broken bones are often thought of as less serious injuries, many fractures require surgery, hardware implantation (screws, plates, rods), extended immobilization, months of physical therapy, and can result in permanent complications including chronic pain, arthritis, reduced range of motion, and nerve damage. Complex fractures โ€” particularly those involving joints, the spine, skull, pelvis, and femur โ€” can be catastrophically disabling. Our attorneys ensure your compensation reflects the full severity and long-term impact of your fracture.

Insurance Companies Undervalue Fracture Claims

Insurers often categorize broken bones as 'soft tissue injuries' or use outdated injury valuation systems that dramatically undervalue fracture claims โ€” particularly when surgery or hardware is involved, or when recovery is complicated. Our Chicago broken bone injury attorneys work with your treating physicians and orthopedic experts to document the true severity of your injury and build a claim that reflects its full value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Case value depends on the bone fractured, whether surgery was required, recovery time, permanent complications, and lost income. Simple fractures healing without complications may be worth $15,000โ€“$50,000. Fractures requiring surgery, involving joints, or causing permanent impairment can be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Our attorneys conduct thorough evaluations for every client.
Surgical fracture repair โ€” including open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with plates, screws, or rods โ€” significantly increases the value of your claim due to higher medical costs, longer recovery, surgical risk, and potential for long-term hardware complications. Our attorneys ensure these factors are fully reflected in your compensation.
Yes. Post-traumatic arthritis is a well-recognized complication of fractures โ€” particularly those involving joints. When medical evidence supports a future arthritis diagnosis, our attorneys include future medical costs and pain and suffering in your claim through expert medical testimony.
The 'eggshell plaintiff' rule in Illinois provides that a defendant must take the victim as they find them โ€” meaning pre-existing conditions like osteoporosis don't reduce your right to recover for injuries that were caused or aggravated by the accident. You are entitled to full compensation for the injury you actually suffered, even if a healthier person might not have broken a bone in the same accident.
