Personal Injury is the branch of law that is designed to protect people who have suffered an injury as a result of the carelessness or intentional act of another. It allows an injured person to make a legal claim to seek monetary compensation for his or her injuries against the person or company who is responsible. Many types of claims are encompassed within the law of personal injury. Suffering through an injury or accident can be difficult under any circumstances, however, this is particularly true when a person is faced with an injury or illness as the result of another person or party’s reckless actions. In these situations, many personal injury victims find themselves battling not only the physical and financial repercussions of their injury or illness, but also a sense of injustice due to suffering harm that could have been prevented if only another party had acted more responsibly.
