Don’t Try to Settle the Claim on Your Own

A Personal Injury lawyer adheres to a strict standard of legal ethics and is there to assist you with every legal aspect of your injury claim. Any injury is regarded as serious and should be treated by you as such. Do not attempt to settle the claim yourself as there may be issues that, if not handled properly by an experienced attorney, result in you receiving significantly less compensation than would have otherwise been awarded or even losing the claim altogether. A consultation with a Personal Injury attorney will ensure that your claim is legitimate and that you receive the compensation due to you.

The Four Elements of a Personal Injury Claim

#1: The Presence of a Duty

Every personal injury case starts with a duty from the defendant to the claimant. In a car accident, the duty may simply be driving safely. For example, a driver has a duty to stop at a stop sign. In more complex situations, a company or person may have the duty to prevent injuries with their product or on their property.

#2: Failure to Exercise Reasonable Care

A personal injury claim must show that reasonable care was not exercised. This can include carelessness or reckless behavior, whether intentional or not.

#3: The Claimant Suffered an Injury

The injury (also known as “damages”) may be physical, mental or financial. There must be evidence of this injury in order for a personal injury lawsuit to move forward.

#4: Causation

The claimant must show the injury was from the failure to exercise reasonable care, and that actual damages resulted, such as:

• Loss of Income
• Medical Bills
• Pain and Suffering
• Disability
