What is a Personal Injury Case?

“Personal Injury” can be described as when one person suffers harm from an injury or an accident from another person, who might be legally responsible for that harm. This type of case can be settled in a multitude of ways, such as formalization through civil court proceedings or an informal settlement prior to the lawsuit being filed.

The goal of a Personal Injury case is to award a sufficient monetary amount to the injured party that will return said individual to the position they were prior to the injury. In other words, “to make them whole.”
