If this sounds familiar, you may be wondering if you have legal recourse beyond an initial insurance claim.

This is where a personal injury lawsuit can prove beneficial. If you’ve been injured as the direct result of someone else’s legal fault, you may be eligible for compensation. Contacting the 1-800-US-LAWYER is the first step to financial recovery.

What Is Negligence?

All personal injury claims hinge on the idea of negligence, which is the legal term for fault. For example, if someone gets behind the wheel of a car drunk, crashes into your vehicle, and injures you, that person is guilty of negligence.

Negligence is rooted in the idea that we all have a duty to exercise reasonable care around one another. We don’t, for example, run across the street without checking for traffic; that would be careless. Proving your personal injury claim will be a matter of demonstrating that the person who caused your injuries was negligent or not reasonably careful.

Proving a Personal Injury Claim

A successful personal injury claim is comprised of four basic elements. You must prove:

  • The entity you’re suing owed you a duty of care. For example, a physician is required to follow a standard of care when administering treatment.
  • The responsible party violated that duty of care (committing negligence).
  • Negligence led to your injuries.
  • You incurred specific damages.

What Is a Personal Injury Claim?

Personal Injury refers to a broad area of the law in which victims of accidents may pursue damages from the person at fault. This aspect of the civil court system plays a vital role in our democracy for several reasons:

  • It provides hope for those who feel they’ve run out of options. Even with an insurance claim and disability insurance, an injury can affect an individual physically and emotionally, leading to financial uncertainty. A personal injury settlement can provide that security for those who need it most.
  • Too often, businesses and corporations think they can get away with cutting corners and shoddy business practices. A personal injury lawsuit sends a clear message: You are responsible for your actions, and you will be held accountable for them.

Injured in an Accident? Contact 1-800-US-LAWYER

If you’ve been injured as the result of someone else’s negligence, you may have legal grounds for a personal injury claim. At 1-800-US-LAWYER, you have access to attorneys that have extensive experience in many areas of personal injury law. Here are some examples of the types of cases they handle:

  • Motor Vehicle Collisions- We help victims of car, bus, truck, and motorcycle collisions receive compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain, and suffering.
  • Wrongful Death- We know nothing can make up for the devastating loss of a loved one, but a wrongful death settlement provides financial security for survivors, allowing families to focus on healing.
  • Product Liability Cases. Those who manufacture, distribute, or sell products must follow guidelines that help keep consumers safe. Those who don’t may be guilty of negligence.
  • Premise Liability Cases- Businesses must similarly keep their properties safe for the public, and failing to rectify a defect is against the law.
  • Workplace Injuries- If you’ve been injured at work, you may be eligible to collect workers’ compensation benefits, but you may also have recourse beyond the initial claim.

Sustaining an injury in a car crash can be emotionally, physically, and financially devastating for victims and their families. Fortunately, there are options for those who have suffered injury due to another person’s negligence or wrongful act, allowing victims to obtain compensation for their losses.
