If you are currently dealing with injuries you suffered in an accident in Brevard County, discuss the possibility of filing a claim with an attorney.
In civil law, a personal injury claim is a legal claim to monetary compensation to make a victim whole again after a negligent party causes an accident or injury. Negligence is a key term in personal injury law. It means to act with a level of carelessness that a reasonable person would not, causing harm to others.
Negligence involves four main elements:
Not every accident or injury will lead to a personal injury claim. If you are curious whether the circumstances of your accident give you grounds to file a personal injury lawsuit or insurance claim, consult with an attorney.
Although not every personal injury case requires an attorney, hiring one can be a significant help to you and your family. You can focus on the things that matter the most, such as getting medical treatment and healing from your serious injuries, while your lawyer takes care of complicated legal processes for you. Your lawyer will take over settlement negotiations with an insurance company or represent you during a court trial, if necessary.
An insurance company may try to take advantage of you as an unrepresented plaintiff. Insurers want to save money by devaluing claims and wrongfully rejecting payouts. Your lawyer can make sure this does not happen, fighting for the recovery you need for both past and future damages. From investigating the cause of your injury to demanding maximum financial compensation, a personal injury lawyer will be in your corner every step of the way.
