If you have been injured in an accident, you may have a viable personal injury claim. Personal injury encompasses a broad variety of various accidents, including car accidents, medical malpractice, nursing home negligence, slip and falls, dog bites, wrongful death, brain injuries, and more. Personal injury claims are civil claims directed against defendants who have committed a wrong and injured another, either negligently, recklessly or intentionally. These claims compensate victims for their injuries. Compensation can cover lost wages, medical bills, pain & suffering, and more. Following an accident, you may find yourself suffering from life-altering injuries that lead to constant doctors' appointments, surgeries, medications, and even job loss.
