PERSONAL INJURY

Personal Injury is defined as injury to a persons body, mind or

emotions, as opposed to injury to property. Such cases involve
legal disputes arising when a person suffers bodily harm or injury
(including emotional distress) as a direct result of someone
elses actions. A Personal Injury case may be filed in order to
hold that person responsible and can be formalized through civil
court proceedings via a court judgment. Alternatively, such
disputes may also be resolved through informal settlements
before any lawsuit is filed, which is a more common occurrence.

AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENTS

Automobile accidents, especially car accidents, can certainly

prove to be an ordeal. Often, the people involved are injured and
their vehicles damaged, sometimes severely. In such cases, the
legal system provides for a mechanism to establish fault and
liability for payments to be made with respect to medical bills and
automobile repairs. Additionally, auto accident cases can also
prove to be extremely complex in terms of determining liability
and fair compensation.

SLIP AND FALL ACCIDENT

Slip and fall is a term used for personal injury cases where a person
slips or trips and is injured on someone elses property. These cases
typically fall under a broader category of cases known as premises
liability. Slip and fall accidents usually occur on property that is
owned or maintained by someone else, and the property owner may
be held legally liable.
Some examples of dangerous conditions that may cause slip and fall
accidents include
Torn carpeting
Changes in flooring
Poor lighting
Narrow stairs
Wet floors
Broken or cracked public sidewalks

WRONGFUL DEATH

Wrongful Death claims can arise in situations where an entity

or an individual engages in negligent activity, is careless or
intentionally breaches his or her legal obligation, directly
causing the death of a person. When a person dies or is killed
as a result of the negligence or misconduct of another,
including murder, the surviving members of the victims
family may sue for wrongful death. It is important to note
that a lawsuit for wrongful death may only be brought by the
personal representative of the decedents estate.
