Personal Injury
When someone is injured by another person who is careless or negligent , the injured person is afforded certain remedies under the law, including seeking monetary damages. When a claim is presented and a settlement cannot be reached, then the appropriate course of action may be filing a personal injury lawsuit. The person who has been injured must prove that as a matter of law some other person or party caused the injury. The person responsible for the injury then must pay the injured person compensatory damages, which are designed to compensate for economic losses and pain and suffering. In very rare cases, punitive damages, which are designed to be a punishment on the person or party so that their behavior will change, can also be awarded.
