  1. Legal-Specialist in Personal Injury Law 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. A lot of people may just want to forget about an incident that may have caused them to be injured. But when problems arise because of their injury, they may feel aggravated and cannot help to be angry about it. Whether or not they were intentionally injured by others, they can file a legal claim so that they may not need to suffer as much as they possibly can. The aim of this type of law is to protect every person's interests and it is part of civil law. It provides victims with the right to claim for damages from the parties who are liable for the negligence that brought about the injuries. Under this rulling one can receive liability claims charges when the cause of suffering and pain is an action which a negligent party is responsible for. Personal injury law provides an opportunity for people who have been harmed by others to seek out monetary compensation to help them with the damages that have been inflicted upon them as a consequence. www.handelinlaw.com 1000 N.

  2. 1. 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. If, however, that assault led to lifelong pain that impeded the victim's ability to work his or her job, a personal injury lawyer could help pursue compensation for those damages. 2. 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. 3. 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. www.handelinlaw.com 1000 N.

  3. 4. 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. Personal injury law is a way to seek compensation that helps the victim with expenses related to the accident and to provide compensation for emotional trauma. 5. Slip and Fall: When a city is responsible for a public area, and when a business owns intellectual property 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. If a person slips and falls because of unkempt property, that man or woman may be eligible for damages from the party responsible for upkeep. Examples include wet (or dirty) floors in a store, loose carpeting or floorboards in a city or county building, and exceptionally hazardous parking lots. These are just a few of the situations that a personal injury attorney is trained to handle. If you find yourself in a circumstance where you have been harmed because of someone else's actions, you may be entitled to monetary compensation for your financial, emotional, and physical damages. If the negligent actions in question have led to the unfortunate death of a loved one, you may be able to pursue monetary compensation for emotional trauma, wrongful death, and lost financial support from future wages. www.handelinlaw.com 1000 N.
