What Is Personal Injury Law?

Personal injury law allows someone who has been wrongfully injured to file a lawsuit against the person, company, or other entity responsible for their accident. While insurance claims often cover damages suffered in minor accidents, such settlements usually aren’t adequate enough to pay for the exorbitant costs associated with severe injuries and extensive property damage, so legal action is required to secure a fair amount of compensation that will sufficiently cover the victim’s costs and allow them to recover to the best of their ability.

Important aspects of personal injury claims include:

• The plaintiff: The injured party filing the personal injury claim. In the event of wrongful death, the plaintiff is the claimant filing the lawsuit on behalf of their deceased loved one.
• The defendant: The person who is at fault for the accident according to the plaintiff and is legally liable for damages if the plaintiff wins the case.
• Negligence: The crux of personal injury claims. For the defendant to be found liable for the accident, the plaintiff must prove that the accident was caused by negligence. For example, drunk driving is negligent; however, if the defendant was following traffic rules and perfectly sober when a car accident occurred, it may be harder to prove that they were negligent.
• Damages: When a plaintiff wins their case, they are financially compensated for any losses they suffered due to the accident. These losses are known as damages.
