Personal Injury Q&A

What types of injuries lead to personal injury cases?

Personal injury cases focus on situations in which one individual’s actions or failure to take action results in another individual’s injury. In these circumstances, the injured party may be entitled to legal recourse, including but not limited to being reimbursed for medical care.

Different injuries can lead to a personal injury case. Some examples include:

Car accidents
Slip-and-fall accidents
Dog bites
Aviation accidents
Workplace accidents
Medical malpractice

Things like negligent security and poor lighting, as well as general safety issues on a property, can also cause a personal injury lawsuit.

When is the right time to come in for a personal injury assessment?

If you’ve sustained an injury due to the choices made by another party, you may be a good candidate for a personal injury case. However, the actions you take after your injury are critical to protect your legal rights.

Any time you sustain a serious injury, coming in for medical attention is the best course of action. Not only can a medical assessment help determine if you need additional care, but it also provides documentation of your injuries.

If the time comes to pursue your personal injury claim with an attorney, having this documentation places you in a solid position. While you can always come in for a medical assessment in the days and weeks after an injury, coming in right away provides a better overview of your injury and symptoms.

You’ll have access to an injury consulting team that compiles the documentation you need, including X-ray imaging, lab testing, and electroencephalogram (EEG). The results of your physical examination are also carefully documented. These records are provided to you and your legal team and safely stored so they can be retrieved quickly on demand.
