How Can A Personal Injury Claim Help?

Catasphoic injuries are painful and cause emotional suffering while trying to heal. On top of that, you will likely need extensive medical treatment, which leads to mounting medical bills. They can also lead to significant time lost at work and, or in some cases limit a person’s ability to earn income. The costs can make it challenging for a victim to recover.

These are just a few of the reasons that people file personal injury claims. A claim won’t take away someone’s pain, but it will help them financially recover. By filing a claim, victims can earn compensation that helps them and their families recover from a serious accident.

What Can I Recover With A Personal Injury Claim?

Through personal injury claims, you can demand payment costs you face due to an accident and injury. Damages can be financial, but they also include “non-economic” damages. In personal injury cases you may seek compensation for:

• Medical bills and on-going Treatment
• Loss of income from the time off work, or the impact on your ability to perform work
• Physical and emotional suffering

These are broad categories of damages that include many of the costs you face. Your best option to know what you may be able to recover is to talk with a Texas personal injury attorney.

What Is Negligence?

A key concept to personal injury cases is negligence. Negligence occurs when a party acts carelessly or without regard to the safety of others. This can happen when a company causes an injury by not implementing safety protocols. Additionally, negligence can occur if a driver causes an accident by texting while driving. You may even have a negligence case if a doctor ignores clear warning signs of a seriously ill patient. Negligence comes in many forms, and it is the basis for most personal injury claims. Your best bet to understand if your case is one of negligence is to contact a personal injury attorney Today.

Will my case be settled or go to trial?

At our law office, one of the most common questions is: Will my case be settled or go to trial?

To answer this question on whether your case is resolved through settlement or goes to trial depends on several factors. These factors are:
• The complexity of the case
• The amount being sought in damages
• The number of parties involved in the case
• Whether an insurance company is willing to pay a fair amount.

Your best bet in understanding the possibilities of your case is to talk with an experienced personal injury attorney. Eric Kirkpatrick can discuss with you your legal options and help you understand the best route for financial recovery. We offer a free consultation and work on a contingency basis for personal injury claims.
