Personal injury claims are legal disputes that arise when an individual suffers harm from an accident or injury caused by the negligence or intention of another individual or party. A personal injury case can become formalized through civil court proceedings, or may be resolved through an informal settlement before a lawsuit is filed.
Unlike criminal cases, which are initiated by the government, a formal personal injury case typically starts when a private individual (plaintiff) files a civil charge against another individual, business, corporation, or government agency (defendant), alleging that their negligent or careless actions caused the plaintiff to sustain injury or harm.
Most personal injury disputes are resolved through an informal settlement, usually between those involved in the dispute, their insurers, and attorneys representing both sides. A settlement commonly takes the form of negotiation, followed by a written agreement in which both sides forgo any legal recourse, opting instead to resolve the dispute through an acceptable monetary arrangement.
Personal injury, or bodily injury, falls under Tort Law, and is considered any physical or mental injury to a person as a result of someone's negligence or harmful act. Personal injuries can occur in a wide variety of ways. The following are some of the most common accidents resulting in personal injury:
- Auto accidents
- Dangerous or Defective Product Injuries (Product Liability)
- Aviation Disasters
- Professional Malpractice
- Workers Compensation
- Wrongful Death
- Toxic Exposure
- Home Accidents
- Dog bites
How do I know if I have a Personal Injury claim?
To have a personal injury case, you must be able to show that you have been injured. This may be a physical injury or it may be an emotional injury. In addition, you must be able to show that someone else (the defendant) is at fault for your injury under a negligence, strict liability, or intentional misconduct theory. In some cases, it may be necessary for you to show that the other party is more at fault for the injury than you are.
