A personal injury occurs any time a person suffers an injury, either physical or psychological, as the result of an accident or medical malpractice. An accident causing personal injury can occur anywhere - work, school, a parking lot, or a favorite shopping center. There are a multitude of types of accidents:
- Recreational Injuries
- Trucking Accidents
- Motorcycle Accidents
- School Bus Accidents
- Traffic Accidents
- Slip and Fall Accidents
- Medical Malpractice
- Defective Product Injury
- Animal Bites
Industrial diseases, including: occupational deafness, repetitive strain injury, chronic bronchitis, and occupational stress, are also considered personal injuries. While worker’s compensation coverage exists for most workplace accidents, the compensation is usually insufficient for serious and catastrophic injuries.
Often the victim of an accident suffers more than just the personal injury. There is typically a loss of wages, substantial medical bills to pay, as well as pain and suffering to endure. A personal injury attorney is needed to fully investigate the accident and seek compensation from the appropriate individual or group(s).
