What Is Injury Law?

Lawsuits involving injury focus on civil violations that could cause damage to your body, mind and emotions. The goal of a successful lawsuit is to obtain compensation for damages, such as medical bills and discomfort and pain.

It's hard to avoid injuries, but you should ensure that you are protected as much as is possible. For instance, if will fall backwards, turn your head to the side and then shield it by your arms.

Negligence

Someone who has suffered injuries or other losses due to someone else's negligence may bring a lawsuit against the negligent party and seek financial compensation. However, the plaintiff must first prove four elements to establish their case: duty, breach of duty, causation and damages.

Negligence is defined as a person's inability to exercise the same level of care a reasonably prudent person would be expected to exercise in similar circumstances. For example, a motorist must obey traffic laws to avoid accidents and cause harm to other people on the road. A doctor must treat patients in the same way that a medical professional with similar training would do in similar circumstances. A lawyer can also use experts to prove that the defendant's conduct fell below industry norms.

In order to prevail in a case of negligence the plaintiff must show that the breach of the defendant was the direct cause of the injury. This is known as legal causation. A good personal injury lawyer will argue that the defendant's actions were the sole cause of the plaintiff's injuries.

The plaintiff must demonstrate that their injuries caused an actual financial loss, such as medical bills or loss of income. Gross negligence is a more serious type of negligence because it entails total disregard for the safety of others. Gross negligence occurs when a nursing house is not able to change bandages for the patient for a number of days. In some states, defendants may be able to use a defense referred to as contributory negligence to prevent the plaintiff from claiming damages.

Statute of Limitations

The statute of limitations is the time limit that you must submit a claim when someone else's negligence or reckless disregard of your safety results in harm. This limit, set by the legislature of the state, is intended to encourage prompt filing and prevent unreasonable delay.

The time period for filing a claim differs from state to state and also from one type of injury to the next. For instance when it comes to Pennsylvania personal injury cases such as car accidents, you typically have two years from the date of the accident to make claims. However, certain claims could be subjected to the discovery rule. This means that the statute of limitation is not set until the injury is discovered or at least, should have been discovered.

In other situations like those that involve intentional torts, like assaults, defamation, false imprisonment and deliberate infliction or damage to emotional distress the statute of limitation is extended. A statute of limitations can be waived or tolled in certain circumstances, for example, when minors are involved or someone is on military duty or in jail.

If you attempt to file a suit after the statute of limitations has expired, your case could be dismissed without hearing. This is why it's essential to consult an experienced attorney for injury before the time when the statute of limitations expires.

Damages

Many of the costs associated with injuries come with a price tag. These are known as special damages and can include medical expenses, out of pocket costs, lost wages, the cost of repairing or replace your property, and other fixed costs. The law limits the amount you can recover in special damages.

Other losses don't carry a price tag and can be difficult to calculate like suffering and pain, loss of enjoyment of life and other intangible damages. In determining a dollar amount for personal losses such as emotional distress or physical pain can be difficult, but attorneys and insurance companies employ formulas to attempt to quantify them.

For instance, a defendant in a personal injury case for whiplash could have sustained serious injuries that have caused a lot of pain and a lot of difficulty in their day-to-day life. They might have to get assistance with chores around the house, eat differently and not be able to participate in recreational activities or a social gathering with their family. The victim could experience an impairment in enjoyment and this is recoverable as general damages.

To determine the value of a claim for general damages attorneys and insurance companies usually start with calculating the total for medical special damages, and then add on the value of any income loss. They then multiply this number by a range of numbers ranging from 1.5 to 5. Higher multipliers are often associated with more serious injuries.

Liability

In law it is a matter of liability. It refers to the person who is accountable for an injury or harm. This could be due to negligence or strict liability. The concept of negligence is the basis for a majority of lawsuits involving injuries. Negligence is the failure to exercise with reasonable care under the circumstances. The jury decides what reasonable people in similar circumstances would do and then decides whether the defendant's actions or inactions were in violation of the law. However, some injury cases are founded on strict liability, for instance, when a defective product results in injuries.

Victims could also be entitled to compensation, in addition to economic damages in the event of non-economic damages like discomfort and pain. It can be difficult to determine the value of these damages however, our injury attorneys are experienced in maximizing the value of your claim.

Most personal injury lawsuits pit one plaintiff against a number of defendants, however there are also multi-plaintiff lawsuits such as class actions and mass torts. One or more of these plaintiffs could be a corporate entity like a pharmaceutical company or an insurance company, or it could be another person who is similar to you. In these instances, multiple parties may be held responsible based on the evidence submitted by each plaintiff and the results of an investigation.
