FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

In the event of a car accident, the first thing to do is to seek medical help if it is needed. However, if you determine that immediate medical assistance is not required, you should begin a visual documentation of damages and injuries through photos or video. In addition, you should obtain the contact information of any witnesses present. Keep in mind that anything you say following a car accident may be used to undermine your case should you choose to file a claim afterward. As such, you should refrain from admitting fault or apologizing to others involved in the collision. Should there be any indication that another person was at fault for the accident, get in touch with a personal injury attorney to look over your options.
Without legal guidance, it may be difficult to know whether you should pursue a claim or lawsuit. Therefore, it is in your best interest to consult with a qualified attorney and review the accident in question as well as any subsequent repercussions. According to your attorney’s evaluation of the incident and state laws governing personal injury, they will be able to determine whether recovery through lawsuit is a viable option. If your damages and injuries were a result of someone’s neglect or recklessness, it is more than likely that you have grounds for a lawsuit. However, with any prospective legal matter, it is best to consult with your attorney so that you may reach an informed decision.
It’s important to keep in mind that while you may not feel injured immediately after being involved in a car accident, aches and pains can make themselves felt later on. During an intense or threatening situation like a vehicle collision, a rush of adrenaline is released into your body, briefly dulling your pain receptors. Consequently, you may not be aware that you have indeed sustained injuries. As such, it is imperative to meet with a doctor after a car accident even in the absence of any immediate pain.
Essentially, the term personal injury is used within the legal field to describe the physical, mental, or emotional harm sustained by one person as a result of the neglect, recklessness, or intentional wrongdoing of another person or entity. Also, the term personal injury serves to legally distinguish between harm done to a person and harm done to property.
Although there are countless situations that can lead to personal injury, some of the more common examples include car accidents, slip and fall cases, medical malpractice, defamation, dog bites, and assault. It should be noted that sustaining an injury under any one of the aforementioned circumstances does not necessarily mean that the person responsible will be held legally liable.
Under personal injury law, compensation can vary widely depending on your particular situation. There are different types of compensation just as there are different types of personal injuries. However, compensation is essentially the monetary quantification of your injuries whether they be physical, mental, or emotional. As such, you may be entitled to medical expense coverage, income coverage, and compensation for property loss or damage. Other forms of compensation may be more difficult to calculate, such as pain and suffering, or emotional distress.
