What Is Injury Law?
Lawsuits involving injury are concerned with civil infringements that can affect your body, mind and emotions. The goal of a successful lawsuit is to recover the amount of money you paid for damages like medical bills and pain and discomfort.
It's difficult to avoid injuries like this, however it is important to take precautions as much as possible. For instance, if you are about to fall backwards, make sure to rotate your head and block it with your arms.
Negligence
Someone who suffers injury or other losses due to an act of negligence by another person can file a negligence suit and seek financial compensation. To establish their case, the claimant will need to establish four elements: duty, breach of duty, causation and damages.
Negligence is defined as a person's inability to act with the same level of care reasonable people would have in similar circumstances. For example, a motorist must obey traffic laws to avoid accidents and cause harm to other people on the road. Doctors have a responsibility to provide patients with the care similar to that a similarly trained medical professional would provide in similar situations. A lawyer may also rely on expert testimony to prove that the defendant's behavior was short of the standards set by industry.
In order to prevail in a case of negligence the plaintiff must show that the defendant's negligence was the primary cause of the injury. This is called legal causation. A good personal injury attorney will claim that the actions of the defendant could be the sole cause of their injuries.
The plaintiff must show that their injuries caused tangible financial loss including medical bills and injury lawsuits lost income. A more serious form of negligence is gross negligence, which entails an unintentional disregard for others' safety. Gross negligence is the case when a nursing home does not change the bandages on a patient for several days. In some states, defendants are able to use a defense referred to as contributory negligence to prevent the plaintiff from claiming damages.
Statute of Limitations
If the negligent actions of another or careless negligence for your safety cause you to suffer injury in a legal way, the law grants you the victim with a certain amount of time to start a lawsuit, which is known as the statute of limitations. This limit is established by the state legislature to encourage timely filing and to prevent unreasonable delays.
The time period for filing a claim can vary from one state to another and also depending on the type of injury. In Pennsylvania for instance, car accidents, you have two years to submit a personal injury claim. However, certain claims might be subject to the discovery rule. This means that the statute of limitation doesn't begin until the injury is discovered or should have been reasonably discovered.
In other cases, such as those involving intentional torts, including assaults or defamation, false imprisonment and deliberate infliction or damage to emotional distress the statute of limitations is longer. It is also possible for a statute of limitations to be waived or tolled, for instance, in the case of minors or a person who is incarcerated or on military duty.
If you try to file a lawsuit after the statute of limitation has expired, your lawsuit could be dismissed without hearing. This is why it's essential to consult an experienced injury lawyer before the time when the statute of limitations expires.
Damages
A lot of the expenses that result from an injury come with an associated cost. These are referred to as special damages. They can include medical expenses, out-of-pocket expenses, lost wages, the cost to repair or replace your property, and other fixed amounts. The law does limit the amount you can claim in special damages.
Other losses are difficult to quantify, like pain and suffering, loss in enjoyment of life, and other non-tangible harms. In determining a dollar amount for the subjective loss of emotional distress or physical pain can be a challenge however, attorneys and insurance companies use formulas to determine the value of them.
A plaintiff in a whiplash case, for example might have suffered serious injuries that affect their daily lives. They may need help with chores around the home, change their diet and not be able to participate in recreational events or gatherings with friends. The victim could suffer the loss of enjoyment that can be compensated through general damages.
To estimate the amount of the claim of general damages, lawyers or insurers typically begin by calculating total of medical special damages. They then add the value of any lost income. Then, they will multiply this by a figure between 1.5 and 5. More severe injuries usually result in more multipliers.
Liability

The concept of negligence is the basis of most injury claims. Negligence is the failure to exercise with reasonable care under the circumstances. The jury will determine what reasonable people in similar circumstances would have done and then decides whether the defendant's actions or omissions violated the law. However, certain injury cases are based on strict liability, such as when a defective product results in injuries.
Victims may also be entitled to compensation, in addition, to economic damages for non-economic losses, such as pain and discomfort. It can be difficult to determine the value of these damages, but our injury lawyers are adept at maximizing the value of your claim.
