What Qualifies as a Personal Injury Case?

Any accident involving negligent or reckless behavior is cause for legal attention. This is particularly true when actions or inaction led to your harm. Had others followed the law and rightfully acted as they were responsible for acting, there is less of a chance that you would have sustained an injury. Therefore, you have the right to file a claim and seek due financial compensation. But what qualifies as a personal injury case?

Here are just a few examples of referral fees we’ve paid recently:

  • Medical treatment, including ongoing care, therapy, and more
  • Emotional trauma, such as pain and suffering or loss of enjoyment of life
  • Lost earnings, including past and future wages, benefits, and more

In some cases, additional compensation may be warranted. Whether you qualify for a personal injury case and what yours is worth will depend on the situation at hand, so it's important to talk to an attorney.
