Northwest Indiana Personal Injury Attorneys

Personal injury law and how we can make it work for you

An injury can detrimentally affect your physical, mental, emotional and financial well-being. When injury results from the failure of others to act with reasonable care, you can collect damages from the person or corporation responsible. With more than 165 years of combined legal experience, the injury attorneys at Rubino Ruman, Crosmer, Smith, Sersic & Polen have developed in-depth knowledge to obtain the best possible results for our clients. We handle every type of personal injury claim, including:

Slips & falls
Injuries resulting from assault
Accidents in the home
Product defect accidents
Construction accidents
Wrongful death
Head & spinal injuries

Holding liable parties accountable for their negligence

Personal injury laws protect individuals who have been harmed by another person or corporation. The judicial system holds wrongdoers accountable for their negligent actions and promotes safety measures and regulations that positively impact our community. Our Indiana personal injury attorneys carefully strategize a successful approach to prove each element of your claim, including:

The defendant acted negligently or recklessly
The negligent or reckless actions caused your injuries
These injuries were foreseeable
You had no pre-existing conditions, there were no intervening causes and you did not assume the risks

Collecting and preserving evidence in PI cases

The immediate collection and preservation of evidence is crucial to winning your case. Wrongdoers and their insurance companies are often less concerned about what is right than about limiting their liability by acting quickly to manipulate evidence and cleaning up accident scenes. Rubino Ruman is one of the few firms that employ an experienced full-time accident investigator who promptly examines the facts of your claim, inspects the scene of your accident, photographs and documents the circumstances, locates and interviews witnesses, and generally takes steps to get to the truth.
