The Nature of Personal Injury Cases
If you have been injured as a result of negligence or wrongdoing by another person, company, government agency, or other entity, you may be eligible for a personal injury claim. Aside from compensation for physical injuries, personal injury lawsuits encompass compensation in regards to how the injury has affected your life. The goal of personal injury law is to make the plaintiff “whole” again, and this may look different for each person.
