Personal injury cases all stem from tort law. Torts are a broad field of law that covers all facets of civil wrongs involving intentional torts, such as a battery, and actions or negligence such as carelessness and reckless driving. Personal injury refers to the area of civil law for cases in which a person has been injured by another party’s negligence or intentional wrongdoing.
Personal injury torts involve intentional or negligent conduct that results in physical or emotional injuries, including impairment, disfigurement, loss of your capacity to enjoy life, companionship and support of family members, and more. In these cases, a person is entitled to compensation for what they have suffered.
If you have been injured, a knowledgeable personal injury lawyer can guide you through the legal process and create a path toward peace of mind. An experienced attorney will have expertise in an array of personal injury torts, such as product liability, medical malpractice, premises liability and auto accidents.
