It can happen in a matter of a moment. Whether it’s a car crash, workplace accident, or other type of injury, an accident or personal injury can leave you with serious, sometimes catastrophic injuries — often, as a result of another party’s negligent or reckless behavior.
These injuries can leave a victim’s life in turmoil. They’re often unable to work, unable to pay bills, unable to enjoy life in the way they used to. The area of personal injury law exists to offer victims of negligence a sense of justice and allow them to recover compensation for personal injuries that were caused by the fault of another party.
Personal injury law, a subset of civil law, provides for legal remedies when someone’s negligence or intentional actions cause harm or injury to another person. This branch of law aims to provide compensation for victims who have suffered physical, emotional, or psychological harm due to the actions or negligence of others.
For example, say you’re driving along, minding your own business, when suddenly someone rear-ends you at a red light because they were texting. Or maybe you slipped on a wet floor in a grocery store because there wasn’t a warning sign. These are the kinds of situations where personal injury law can help you obtain compensation for the damages you have suffered.
In addition to providing compensation for individual victims, personal injury law also serves broader societal purposes by holding wrongdoers accountable for their actions and promoting safer behaviors and practices. Personal injury cases can arise from a wide range of situations, including the following:
Hiring a personal injury attorney can make a world of difference when you’re navigating the aftermath of an accident or injury. Here’s why bringing in a legal expert is often a smart move:
In essence, hiring a personal injury attorney empowers you to navigate the complexities of the legal system with confidence, giving you the best possible chance of achieving a favorable outcome and obtaining the compensation you deserve.
At its core, personal injury law is grounded in the concept of negligence, which refers to the failure to exercise reasonable care in one’s actions, resulting in harm to another party. To be successful in a negligence claim, the following four elements need to be proven:
Following a personal injury, you may face medical bills, including the cost of a hospital stay, doctor’s visits, and specialist visits. You may accumulate bills for medical testing, imaging, and treatments, as well as prescription medication costs. If you were involved in a motor vehicle accident, you might have damage to your own vehicle, leading to mechanic’s bills or repair or replacement costs. You may also be unable to go to work, leading to lost income or wages.
Additionally, you might be facing non-out-of-pocket costs, such as pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of activities that you may no longer do, scarring or disfigurement, and the overall decline in your quality of life.
After an accident or injury, your bills will add up, but you may be able to recover compensation for the damages you have suffered. It is essential that you speak with a knowledgeable lawyer about ascertaining the full amount of your damages so that you can better understand what compensation you should be seeking. An experienced and knowledgeable personal injury attorney will be able to assess your damages, both your out-of-pocket costs and your general damages, which can be more difficult to ascertain.
