ORLANDO, FL, January 26, 2011 (Press-News.org) When you are injured due to someone else's negligence it can be difficult to know how to begin recovering from your damages. Lost wages, medical bills, and an impacted quality of life can make things seem overwhelming.
Even the smallest accidents can result in serious injury, and when your injury is caused by the careless behavior of another person, you need an experienced personal injury attorney on your side to ensue you receive the full compensation you are due.
Cases Handled by Personal Injury Attorneys
Personal injury lawyers can take on any case where negligence has resulted in harm. Some examples of personal injury lawsuits include:
- Car accidents
- Medical malpractice
- Premises liability
- Defective products
- Nursing home abuse and neglect
Personal injury lawyers deal with civil lawsuits and do not file criminal charges. It is important to remember that even if a person has been cleared of criminal charges, they may still be liable for your injuries in a civil suit.
Common Injuries in Personal Injury Lawsuits
Every accident can result in serious injury. These injuries can vary widely depending on the nature of the accident, but all of them can be dealt with by a personal injury attorney. Common injuries handled by personal injury attorneys include:
- Brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Amputations
- Internal damages
- Death
Not all injuries are physical. A personal injury lawyer will look at how your injury has impacted your emotional and overall wellbeing as well.
Damages Sought in Personal Injury Cases
When you are injured in an accident, you lose more than physical capacity. Knowing this, personal injury attorneys often seek compensation for a variety of damages, including:
- Current and future medical expenses
- Current and future lost wages
- Diminished quality of life
- Pain and suffering
Relying on insurance alone almost always results in inadequate compensation. Hiring a personal injury attorney is one way to help make sure you and your loved ones are taken care of in the years ahead, and not just in the immediate future.
You have a right to seek compensation any time you are injured in an accident, even if you are partially to blame. A personal injury attorney is a necessity for making sure that the full extent of your injuries is addressed and you receive the compensation you deserve.
