Personal Injury Defense
If you have suffered an injury due to the carelessness of another party, you may be able to recover compensation through a personal injury lawsuit. Depending on the circumstances surrounding your injury, a personal injury lawyer may seek personal injury damages including, but not limited to past and future medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering. Injury victims should be aware that personal injury claims must be brought within a specific period of time following the date that the injury occurred. This time limit, known as the statute of limitations, varies by state. For this reason, it is important to contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after the accident takes place in order to ensure that your rights will be fully protected.
