Step-by-Step Guide
In Wisconsin, you are legally required to report accidents involving injury, death, or significant property damage. Call 911 from the scene in Hudson and request both police and medical assistance.
Go to a hospital or urgent care — even if you feel fine. Many injuries like whiplash, concussions, and internal bleeding don't show symptoms immediately. Nearby hospitals include Hudson Hospital & Clinic.
Take photos and videos of all vehicles, injuries, road conditions, traffic signals, and skid marks. Get names, phone numbers, and insurance information from all parties and witnesses.
Insurance companies will contact you quickly — often within 24 hours. Their goal is to get a recorded statement they can use against you and to offer a lowball settlement before you understand your claim's true value.
Wisconsin's statute of limitations is 3 years (Wis. Stat. § 893.54). However, critical evidence — surveillance footage, witness memories, vehicle data — degrades rapidly. The sooner you call Bond Legal at (866) 423-7724, the stronger your case.
Every doctor visit, prescription, therapy session, and medical bill becomes evidence of your damages. Keep a daily journal documenting your pain levels, limitations, and emotional impact.

Source: Wis. Stat. § 893.54
In Wisconsin, you generally have 3 years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline typically bars you from recovering any compensation. There are limited exceptions for minors, discovery of latent injuries, and government claims — consult an attorney immediately.
Non-economic damages in medical malpractice capped at $750,000 (Wis. Stat. § 893.55(4)(d)). No general PI cap.
Modified Comparative Fault (51% Bar)
Wis. Stat. § 895.045

OWI Law
Wis. Stat. § 346.63
Wisconsin uses OWI (Operating While Intoxicated). BAC limit is .08 for adults, .00 for those under 21. Wisconsin is the only state where a first OWI offense is a civil forfeiture (non-criminal), though subsequent offenses are criminal.
Dram Shop Liability (Limited)
Wis. Stat. § 125.035
Wisconsin limits dram shop liability to sales to underage persons only. There is no dram shop liability for serving visibly intoxicated adults — one of the most restrictive dram shop frameworks in the nation.

Wisconsin's Safe Place statute requires employers and property owners to maintain safe conditions for employees and visitors. This creates additional liability in premises liability and workplace injury cases.
