Personal Injuries and Damages

Emergency rooms across the country treat a total of about 131 million patients a year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Many of these injuries turn out to be serious, and some result from accidents. If you were hurt as a result of an accident, the negligent party might owe you money for your damages. A personal injury claim may be necessary to ensure that the party responsible for your injuries makes the appropriate payment. If you were hurt due to someone’s negligence, you can get the legal guidance you need from a personal injury attorney.

Car accidents can result in severe injuries. Even somewhat minor injuries may require surgery and long-term recovery. The negligent driver is responsible for all damages that the victim incurred as a result of an accident. Damages include actual medical bills and lost wages, and they may also include non-economic damages, as well. If you were injured in a car accident that was not your fault, you may be entitled to compensation. Contact our legal team to discuss your options and get help through the process.

After a plaintiff wins a personal injury case, many believe that the matter is resolved. The common misconception is that a plaintiff is handed a check by the responsible party and is able to go on his or her way. Unfortunately, that’s often not the case, especially in instances where a jury awards a large amount of money. In these cases, the defendants almost always challenge the verdict, an attempt to have the total reduced.
