EnglishWhat Types of Personal Injury Cases Does Stewart & Stewart Handle?
Updated
Stewart & Stewart Attorneys is an Indianapolis personal injury law firm that handles accident, injury, and wrongful death claims on a contingency basis — the firm states there is "No Fee Unless You Win," with no upfront or out-of-pocket cost and a free initial consultation. The practice areas listed on its site cover auto, truck, and motorcycle accidents, slip & fall, dog bites, workers' compensation, medical malpractice, and wrongful death.
Practice areas listed by the firm
| Case type | What the firm says it handles |
|---|---|
| Auto accidents | Building a case and recovering damages after a car crash |
| Truck accidents | Giving truck crash cases "the care and attention it deserves" |
| Motorcycle accidents | Representing injured motorcyclists |
| Slip & fall | Recovering compensation for premises injuries |
| Dog bite | Pursuing compensation for bite injuries |
| Workers' compensation | Helping injured workers avoid needless delays |
| Medical malpractice | Claims involving negligent medical care |
| Wrongful death | Fatal-accident claims brought by surviving family members |
The site also publishes articles on related questions, including whether you can sue for Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, distracted driving in Indiana, and how to handle insurance after an accident.
How the fee arrangement works
The firm describes its "No Fee Unless You Win" promise as meaning:
- You pay nothing up front or out of pocket.
- Fees are only owed if the firm wins or settles your case.
- The initial consultation is always free.
- The firm says its legal staff is reachable 24/7.
If you are weighing whether to contact a lawyer, this structure removes the upfront cost concern — but it does not tell you what percentage a contingency fee would be, and the site does not publish that figure. Ask directly during the free consultation.
Results the firm highlights
Under "Our Recent Victories," the site lists settlements including a wrongful death motorcycle settlement, a medical malpractice settlement, and an infant death settlement. The dollar amounts are not displayed in the page content, so treat the categories as examples of case types rather than as a prediction of value. Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome in another case.
When this firm is a fit — and when it may not be
Consider contacting Stewart & Stewart if:
- You were injured in Indiana in a car, truck, or motorcycle crash, a slip & fall, or a dog bite.
- You are pursuing a workers' compensation claim and want representation.
- You are a family member considering a medical malpractice or wrongful death claim.
- You want to start with a free consultation and no upfront payment.
Look elsewhere or ask more questions first if:
- Your matter is outside personal injury — the listed practice areas do not include business, family, or criminal law.
- Your incident happened outside Indiana, since the firm presents itself as an Indiana practice.
- You need to know the exact contingency percentage before deciding; that detail is not published and must be requested.
What to have ready for a free consultation
To make the first call useful, gather:
- The date, location, and a short account of how the injury happened.
- Any police or incident report number.
- Medical records, bills, and treatment dates so far.
- Pay stubs or records showing lost wages.
- Correspondence from any insurance company.
- Photos, witness names, and any video of the scene.
The firm can be reached at (800) 33-33-LAW, and its site offers a free case review form. Deadlines for injury claims are set by state law, so confirming the filing deadline for your specific incident early is worth doing rather than waiting.
