Types of Personal Injury

There are many types of personal injury cases. They are classified by the following:

• Motor vehicle accidents. These are the most common types of injury cases. They include car, truck, pedestrian, and motorcycle crashes, as well as rideshare accidents.
• Medical malpractice. This is when a doctor injures a patient through substandard care. This can happen due to misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medical errors, birth injuries, and more.
• Workplace accidents. Going to work is not always safe. Slips and falls, machinery accidents, and vehicle crashes can all cause serious injuries.
• Premises liability. You expect to be safe when on someone else’s property. When a dangerous condition causes you to suffer an injury, you can file a premises liability claim.
• Dog bites. Dog bites may fall under premises liability. A dog attack can cause serious injuries, and the owner will typically be held liable.
• Product liability. This is when a person suffers an injury due to a dangerous product. You would have to prove one of these defects: design defect, manufacturing defect, or marketing defect.

Why You Need a Personal Injury Lawyer

Should you hire a lawyer for your claim? Here are some things that a personal injury lawyer can do for you:

• Gather information and evidence. You need evidence to support your claim. A lawyer knows all the different avenues to collect evidence of liability and damages.
• Ensure documents are submitted correctly. A personal injury claim requires a lot of paperwork. You likely don’t know how to fill out these documents properly. Plus, there are often deadlines involved. Let a lawyer handle this.
• Appropriately value your claim. Do you know how much your case is worth? Most likely, no. A lawyer knows how to place a value on your damages.
