What is Personal Injury Law?
Personal injury law is a branch of law that allows injured parties to seek compensation for damages sustained in an accident. This type of law provides legal protection for those who have been wronged by another person’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct.
An experienced personal injury lawyer will assist you in filing a claim against the responsible party to recover financial compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. Our attorneys understand how overwhelming the legal process can be and we are here to guide you through every step of the way.
Types of Personal Injury Lawsuits That We Handle
There are several areas of personal injury, including:
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Whether your accident involved a car, bus, train, motorcycle, or truck accident, or you were struck as a pedestrian, you may feel the impact of your injury for years to come. Financial compensation should cover your recovery and beyond.
Nursing Home Abuse
The abuse or neglect of a vulnerable loved one is tragic. Our personal injury lawyers have successfully litigated personal injury claims against nursing homes to recover the compensation that our clients deserve.
Defective Product
We will protect your rights against the corporations, manufacturers, and distributors whose products have caused you injury.
Medical Malpractice
If you were harmed because a medical professional failed to provide an acceptable standard of care, you are entitled to compensation for your injury, misdiagnosis, or improper treatment.
Premises Liability
Whether you were injured on business-owned, municipal, or privately-owned property, you have a right to financial recovery for injuries sustained in a slip and fall accident, as well as those incurred in an act of violence due to inadequate security.
Workers’ Compensation Accidents
If you have been denied benefits by your employer’s Workers’ Compensation provider, we can help you file an appeal. You may also be entitled to third-party benefits if you were injured at work – even if you already have a Workers’ Compensation claim. This is most commonly the case when the injuries were sustained in a construction accident or work-related car accident.
Catastrophic Injuries
If your injury caused a permanent disability – whether it occurred during a car accident, at work, or in any other way – you may be entitled to financial compensation. Such injuries may include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, severe burns, dismemberment, or amputation.
Wrongful Death
If you have lost a loved one at the hands of someone who was negligent or engaged in wrongdoing, we will protect your rights and work hard to ensure justice is served.
Financial Compensation for the Duration of Your Injury
We know you may be facing a long path to recovery. We are committed to successfully projecting your costs for the care you need now and into the future. You may recover financial compensation that covers the following:
Medical consultations
Medical care and treatment
Prescriptions
Travel to and from medical care and therapy and/or rehabilitation
Therapy and/or Rehabilitation
Past lost wages
Future lost wages
Home modification, when necessary
In-home care, when necessary
