What Are Personal Injury Claims?

Accidental injuries have the potential to cause life-altering damages in a person’s life. These injuries can happen in a number of ways, but often occur in the following incidents:

Car, truck, or motorcycle crashes
Pedestrian accidents
Products liability incidents
Medical malpractice
Premises liability incidents
Dog bites
Wrongful death

A legal duty, created by law or contract, holds everyone to a particular standard. When the injured person can prove a negligent party had a legal responsibility to protect them and failed to do can succeed in an injury claim. Drivers, doctors, and property owners all have legal duties to protect others.

Recoverable Damages

When someone files a civil case, they are entitled to seek compensation for medical bills, long-term care, and lost income. Courts can also award personal injury victims damages for their pain, suffering, or emotional trauma. Compensation depends on several factors, including the severity of the personal injury and how it happened, so it is helpful to consult an experienced Sarasota lawyer before filing a claim.

Who is Liable for a Personal Injury?

When negligent persons cause accidents causing injuries and damages these negligent parties are legally responsible for the harms they cause. Proving another person was negligent requires demonstrating that they had a legal duty to protect someone else and they breached the legal duty, causing the injured person to suffer damages. An experienced personal injury attorney is vital for your successfully proving the at fault party’s negligence and the full extent and value of your damages

The defendant’s intent is irrelevant to a negligence claim; an injured person is entitled to recover full compensation when the at-fault party negligently fails to comply with their legal duty regardless of intent. For example, drivers on the road owe each other a duty to driving safely and when this duty is breached causing a wreck resulting in your injuries and damages you are entitled to recover the full value of each and every damage cost to you.

When both parties are responsible for an accident, the law allows recovery for injuries based on the percentage of fault and as long as that percentage of fault is not exceed 50% the plaintiff can recover compensation even though partially at-fault.

There are strict time limitations to keep in mind when filing civil lawsuits. For personal injury cases, the injured party must file their claim within two years to be valid. Otherwise, they run the risk of losing their right to recovery. A trusted lawyer in Sarasota could help navigate the legal and procedural hurdles to recovering compensation after an injury.
