If you have suffered a personal injury which was caused by someone else's negligence, an intentional wrong or by a company's defective product an attorney who specializes in personal injury law may be able to help answer your questions and file your personal injury case.
When do I have a personal injury?
A personal injury occurs when a person has been injured by another party and has suffered physical or mental distress. Every tort claim can be defined as either strict liability, an intentional wrong or negligence. A Tort is a term used in common law that can be a civil or criminal wrong. If you commit a tort and harm someone else's body or property, it can be grounds for a personal injury lawsuit.
