Personal Injury Law

Personal Injury Claim

A legal claim for compensation brought by a person who has suffered physical or psychological harm due to another party's negligent or wrongful act.

Personal injury claims can arise from a range of situations — accidents, workplace injuries, or defective products — and generally require the claimant to establish that the other party owed them a duty of care, breached it, and caused the injury as a result.

Compensation typically covers medical expenses, loss of income, and, depending on the severity, an amount for pain and suffering.
