Reasons To Initiate a Personal Injury Case
A moderate to severe injury (physical or emotional) will leave you with massive medical bills and other expenses while also changing the way you live and work. If the incident was caused by someone failing in their duty of care, the negligent person or business and insurance companies must be held accountable and compensate you for damages:
Immediate medical bills such as hospital stays and outpatient care, tests, and treatment
Future medical bills for serious or permanent injuries
Lost earnings if you have had to miss a lot of work
Loss of earning capacity if you were injured so severely that you can no longer work
Pain and suffering related to the type of injury and required medical treatment
Emotional distress related to your mental and emotional state following the accident
Loss of consortium (companionship) if the accident killed your partner or ended the relationship
Punitive damages to punish and make an example of particularly egregious defendants
About Personal Injury Attorneys
Personal injury lawyers are usually passionate about justice and the well-being of their clients. We see people who have suffered injuries through no fault of their own, and we want to help them obtain resolution.
Additionally, injured parties with attorney representation receive an average of 3.5 times higher settlements than those without and 85% of all insurance companies pay-outs for bodily injury claims are paid to parties represented by a lawyer.
As soon as possible after the incident, contact a personal injury attorney to evaluate the case and counsel you throughout the process. They will assess whether your case occurred because of negligence and guide you from there.
