PERSONAL INJURY

Everyday we are placed in situations where we can get hurt. Sometimes it is a matter of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. In some instances someone may be legally responsible for your injuries. Someone can be held liable only if it can be proved that there was negligence. Personal Injury Law has become a much criticized area of the law. The courts are burdened with suits against individuals, companies, cites and large corporations.

When a person is injured, the amount of damages he or she is entitled to depends on the extent of the injuries, economic losses due to the injury, proof of negligence and what else contributed to the injury. Damages may be awarded by a judge or jury, but most are settled out of court through negotiations.
