Do You Have a Personal Injury Claim?
Personal injury lawsuits arise when people are injured by the careless, negligent, or intentional acts of others. When someone is determined to be legally responsible for injuring someone else, they are liable for the injury and may be made to compensate the victim. Because a person cannot be “made whole” after many injuries, the United States court system compensates these victims with money.
The
