We Care About Your Personal Well-being

A person who is hurt because of someone else’s negligence is entitled to compensation for his or her pain and suffering. For example, in a car accident, it must be proved that the individual’s injury arose from the negligent conduct of the other driver, prior to being entitled to any financial recovery, notwithstanding the severity of the individual’s injury.

In a personal injury case, there are no caps or limits on what a jury may award an injured person, and the categories of damage are far broader than in workers' compensation. Among some of the categories for which a person may seek damages are:

  • Past and future medical bills
  • Past and future lost wages
  • Past and future pain and suffering
  • Past and future disability (considered loss of enjoyment of life)
  • Disfigurement.
