  • Medical and dental accidents
  • Sexual abuse

  • Injuries that occur because products malfunction or fail
  • Work-related accidents
  • Wrongful death




Most personal injury cases involve negligence. To have a valid case, your personal injury attorney must be able to show that your injury was caused by the negligence of another party. To prove negligence, your injury lawyer must prove four separate things:


  • Duty of care: The negligent party had an obligation to act prudently to avoid injuring the other party
  • Breach of duty: The negligent party knowingly exposed the injured party to a substantial risk of injury or didn't even realize (but should have) that there was a substantial risk
  • Direct cause: The negligent party's deliberate acts, or lack of action, caused the injury
  • Harm: The injured party suffered a financial loss because of the negligent party's negligence (a medical bill, for example, would be a monetary loss)


Personal Injury Attorney:

Personal Injury Attorneys are the lawyers which handle your case fight for your legal rights such as recover of financial loss, compensation in medical bills, compensation of other pains loss etc in that injury case. Moreover they do not charge you their fee unless they win your case ......... in short no win no fee.

Things to be kept in mind while taking Attorney:


  • To increase the value of your case, you need a trial attorney who insurance companies respect and fear. Beware of attorneys who have never tried a case or handled an appeal.
  • As injury attorneys vary from place to place so make sure that you chose the right one of your area.
