Personal Injury

Injuries, accidents, disabilities or wrongful death due to the carelessness of others. Click here for what to do.

A Personal Injury is an injury, not to property, but to your body, mind or emotions. When someone's carelessness causes the injury, under the law, you are entitled to be made whole. Any medical bills incurred should be reimbursed. Any lost wages should be reimbursed. Any pain you suffered should be considered. Any damages suffered by you and your family should be compensated. Usually these are non-work related injuries, but sometimes a third party related to your employment can cause you injury even during the course of your job. Any property damage will be handled as a separate issue from your PI case. Your attorney will advise you of this.

There are many types of injuries that fall under the umbrella of Personal Injury. Some of the more common examples are:

  • Motor vehicle accidents (car, truck, van, motorcycle)
  • Public transportation accidents (bus, railroad, plane, ship)
  • Recreational vehicles (Boats, Jet Ski's, ATV's, Motor-Cross Bikes)
  • Slip and fall in a public place
  • Dog or animal bites
  • Injuries due to a product failure
  • Medical malpractice
Do you have a case?

Many factors, too numerous to mention here, must be taken into consideration in determining whether you have a case. Once it is determined that you have a case, the next questions are:

  • Can you be made whole again?
  • Will your medical bills be paid?
  • How do we get you just compensation for your pain and suffering?
  • What about lost wages?
Once the determination is made, you not only need the assistance of a qualified attorney, but also a firm with the resources to properly pursue the case on your behalf.

What to do if you've suffered a personal injury.

Personal Injury cases are accepted on a contingency basis. You only pay us when we recover compensation on your behalf.
