Personal Injury
Personal injury claims are legal disputes that arise when an individual suffers harm from an accident or injury caused by the negligence or willful act of another individual or party. A personal injury case can be filed in and litigated through a civil court proceeding, or it may be resolved through an informal settlement before a lawsuit is filed.
Automobile Accidents
Legal claims that arise from motor vehicle accidents are typically governed by the civil laws of negligence. An individual who negligently operates a motor vehicle may be required to pay damages to an injured victim. In court, the injured party (plaintiff) is required to prove that the defendant was negligent.
Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents
Pedestrians and bicycles are often involved in accidents involving automobiles and other vehicles. The laws related to pedestrian and bicycle accidents are typically governed by the civil laws of negligence. It is important to consult a qualified personal injury attorney if you have been injured in a pedestrian or bicycle accident to discuss your case with you and the possible remedies available.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle riders need to be made aware of their vehicular rights if involved in a traffic accident, and the legal options of recourse available. Insurance laws vary by state, and may differ substantially in respect to motorcycles versus automobiles, so it is important to consult a qualified automobile attorney if you have been injured in a motorcycle accident to discuss your case with you.
