  2. Continue... Personal injury law provides legal rights to victims who have been physically or psychologically injured as a result of the carelessness or wrongdoing of another person, company government, or another entity. Whether or not they were intentionally injured by others, they can file a legalclaim so that they may not need to suffer as much as they possibly can.

  3. Areas of Personal Injury Laws Personal injury law covers a few unique scenarios. It’s really important to understand that this is different from criminal law. So, for example, if a man or woman is physically assaulted, the criminal charges (for example one count of assault and battery) would be addressed in the criminal justice system. 

  4. Workplace injury/workers’ compensation If a worker is hurt at work because they were put in a dangerous situation (unfit working conditions, faulty supplies, or dangerous physical environment) that the employer should or could have prevented, the employer can be held accountable for the consequences.

  5. Medical Malpractice Medical malpractice is when a medical professional (doctor, nurse, nurses’ assistant, etc.) acts (or fails to act) in a manner deemed inappropriate by their peers and consequently causes harm or even death to the patient.

  6. Motor Vehicle Accidents When someone drives irresponsibly (by speeding, driving under the influence, distracted / cell phone driving, or reckless driving in general) and kills or maims a safe driver or innocent bystander, a few months in jail is clearly not going to help the aforementioned victim recover.

  7. Slip and Fall When a city is responsible for a public area, and when a business owns intellectualproperty that members of the public is invited to enter for the sake of doing business (a retail store, for example), they are responsible for ensuring these places are safe.
