A personal injury lawyer will provide legal representation to you if you claim to have been injured, physically or psychologically, as a result of the negligence on part of another person, company, government agency, or other entity. The idea is that for every accident, someone is at fault. For every injury, there’s someone responsible. Injury lawyers can advocate cases that come under TORT law. Personal injury compensation is not a lottery win, an injury claim should only be made where accident injuries have occurred that have caused you pain and suffering and/or financial loss. An injury lawyer provide assistance when a worker is harmed (including a worsened preexisting condition) that arises in the scope of employment. This is the most common area of injury where injury lawyers are required. An injury law suit is usually set on ‘negligence’ by the convicted party but other reasons could be
- Medical Malpractice
- Defective Products
- Automobile Accidents
- Animal Bites
- Slip and Fall
- Workplace Injuries
- Catastrophic Injuries
- Aviation Accidents
Most injury lawyers take the case on no win no fee basis depending upon contractual terms. Injury lawyers must also adhere to strict standards of legal ethics when dealing with clients which vary from state to state. Injury lawyers owe their clients a duty of loyalty and confidentiality and must work to protect their clients’ best interests. |
