If you’ve lost a loved one, you may be able to file a wrongful death lawsuit against the person or company that caused your loss. For example, a drunk driver may have claimed the life of your loved one. In this situation, this driver would be held accountable for your loved one’s medical bills and funeral costs, plus any lost earnings for the family.
Keep complete records about everything related to your personal injury. That includes the date and details of the incident, receipts for anything you paid for (such as doctors and prescriptions), and the names and phone numbers of anyone who talked to you about your personal injury.
Let’s say you were seriously injured in a car crash that wasn’t your fault. How would you know if a settlement from the other insurance company is fair and includes payments for everything you are entitled to receive under the law?
Specifically, a personal injury is a mental or physical injury that is the result of someone else’s negligence or harmful behavior. Negligence is conduct below standards established by law for the protection of others. Call us for advice.
If you contact us after you've been involved in an injury accident, we can offer important advice. For example, if the other party's insurer asks you to make a statement, politely decline so that can't be used against you.
If you have suffered bodily injury or property damage, we suggest you consult with our experienced attorneys, so we can determine whether another party could be liable for your injuries, entitling you to compensation through a lawsuit or insurance claim.
