What Is Injury Law?
The law of injury deals with civil violations that can harm your mind, body as well as your feelings. The goal of a successful injury lawsuit is to obtain the financial compensation you deserve for damages such as medical bills, suffering and pain.
It's difficult to avoid such injuries, but it's important to ensure that you are protected as much as is possible. If you're about to fall forward, turn your head to shield it and use your arms.
Negligence
A person who has sustained injuries or other damages as a result of negligence of another can sue for negligence and seek financial compensation. To establish their case, the plaintiff must prove four things including breach of duty, causation and damages.
Negligence is the inability to behave in a manner that reasonable people would act under similar circumstances. A driver, for example must obey traffic laws to avoid injuries or accidents to other road users. A doctor has a duty to provide patients with the same care that a similarly qualified medical professional would offer in similar circumstances. Lawyers can utilize expert testimony to prove that the defendant's conduct was in line with industry standards.
In order to prevail in a case of negligence the plaintiff must show that the breach by the defendant was the primary cause of the injury. This is called legal causation. A good personal injury attorney will argue that the actions of the defendant could have been the sole cause of their injuries.
The plaintiff must prove that their injuries led to real financial losses for example, lost income and medical bills. A more serious type negligence is gross negligence, which entails a complete lack of concern for others' safety. Gross negligence is when a nursing home is not able to change bandages for the patient for a number of days. In some states, defendants are able to use a defense known as contributory negligence, which can prevent the plaintiff from claiming damages.
Statute of Limitations
When someone else's negligent actions or careless negligence for your safety cause you to be injured, the law provides a limited period of time to bring a lawsuit, referred to as the statute of limitations. The statute of limitations is set by the state's legislature to encourage timely filing and prevent unreasonable delays.
The time limit for filing a claim varies from one state to another and also depending on the type of injury and kind of injury. For instance the case of Pennsylvania personal injury cases such as car accidents, you typically have two years from the date of the accident to file an action. However, certain claims could be subjected to the discovery rule. This means that the statute of limitations doesn't begin until the injury is discovered or at least, should have been discovered.
In other cases which involve intentional torts, like assaults and false imprisonment, defamation, and intentional infliction on emotional distress the statute of limitation is longer. It is also possible for a statute of limitation to be tolled or waived, such as in the case of minors or a person who is incarcerated or serving on military duty.
If you decide to file a lawsuit after the statute of limitations has expired your case could be dismissed without being heard. This is why it's essential to consult an experienced injury attorney well before the statute of limitations runs out.
Damages
A lot of the expenses associated with an injury have costs. These are known as special damages. They can include medical expenses, out of pocket costs, lost wages, the cost of repairing or replace your property and other fixed amounts. The law does limit the amount you can claim in special damages.
Other losses do not have a price tag and can be difficult to calculate such as suffering and pain, loss of enjoyment of life and other intangible damages. It is difficult to determine a dollar value for the subjective loss of physical or emotional pain can be difficult however, attorneys and insurance companies make use of formulas to try to quantify the amount.
A person who is the plaintiff in a whiplash case, for instance, may have suffered serious injuries that affect their daily life. They might have to seek assistance with household chores, eat differently, and avoid socializing or recreational activities. The victim might suffer the loss of enjoyment which can be recovered as general damages.
To estimate the amount of the claim of general damages, lawyers or insurance companies typically begin by calculating total of medical special damages. They then add the value of any lost income. They then multiply this amount by a value ranging from 1.5 to 5. More severe injuries usually result in higher multipliers.
Liability
In law it is a matter of liability. It refers to the party found responsible for harm or injury. This can be due either to negligence or strict liability. The majority of injury claims are based on the idea of negligence. Negligence is the failure to act with reasonable care in the circumstances. Jurors decide what an average person would have done under similar circumstances and determine whether the defendant's action or inaction violated this standard. However, some injury cases are founded on strict liability, such as the event that a defective product causes injuries.
Victims could also be entitled to compensation, in addition to damages for economic loss as well as non-economic losses like discomfort and pain. It's difficult to quantify these damages however, our injury attorneys are skilled in maximizing the value of your claim.
Some personal injury lawsuits are multi-plaintiff cases, such as mass torts or class actions. These plaintiffs can be companies, such as an insurance company or pharmaceutical company or they could be individuals just like you.
