Mere involvement in an accident does not necessarily translate into having a strong personal injury claim. We consider many factors during your free case evaluation. These include the following:
If the person responsible for the accident can be proved negligent, your case is more likely to be successful. Examples of negligence include distracted drivers, drivers who ignore the rules of the road or boaters who drink while operating their watercraft.
Another important aspect of a successful personal injury claim is evidence that the actions of a negligent individual caused you or a loved one serious, even fatal, harm. Examples of grave injuries include traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), nerve damage, spinal cord injuries leading to paralysis, burns and amputation.
One of the main ways to prove your case is by demonstrating your injury has caused you economic and psychological hardship. For example, you may be eligible for compensation for medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering.
