A personal injury case is a civil law case where an attorney attempts to gain compensation for a client for injury to his or her person. An injured person can use an attorney to negotiate with opposite parties or insurance companies in order to gain appropriate compensation. In cases where agreement on compensation for an injury cannot be achieved through negotiation, it may be necessary for the injured person to take the opposing party to trial.
People may need a personal injury lawyer in the following situations: automobile or motorcycle accidents; accidents on the job (workers compensation); wrongful or accidental death; dog bites and other animal attacks; slips and falls; or injury from hazardous materials and products.
No matter the injury or the cause, you have a life to live. Work, family, and other priorities all clamoring for attention and, if you’re injured, it is even harder to spare the time or energy to take care of everything that needs doing.
On top of all of that, you have to deal with doctors, insurance companies, the police, and possibly even other attorneys. Most people give up, preferring to deal with the pain rather than outrageous medical fees or painfully slow bureaucracies. That’s where we come in. We can take on the back-and-forth paperwork, and also negotiate with medical providers and insurers to make sure your bills get paid without a penny leaving your own pocket.
