FAQs

1. What is a Personal Injury Case?

A personal injury case involves a situation in which one party claims to have sustained injuries caused by another party. For example, let’s look at a personal injury case after a slip and fall incident. If a customer falls after slipping on spilled liquid in a store, the store may be liable for the injuries their customer suffered. The store has the responsibility of providing a safe environment for visitors to their property. For the personal injury case, the injured customer and their attorney will need to gather the requisite documentation and evidence to prove the store failed to provide a safe place for shoppers. The process includes research, investigation, and negotiation. If liability is established, the customer will be awarded compensation.

2. How Much is a Personal Injury Case Worth?

There are several elements that must be analyzed to determine how much compensation a victim may be awarded in a personal injury claim. An experienced personal injury lawyer can evaluate the circumstances of the accident and the extent and severity of injuries to the victim. If liability is proven and depending on the type of case, a court may award economic and non-economic damages to the victim. Economic damages are actual costs that can be recovered, including medical bills, repair costs, loss of wages, etc. Non-economic damages are intangible items such as pain and suffering or loss of consortium. In the event a victim chooses to accept a settlement, the case will not go to trial.

3. What is the Personal Injury Negotiation Process?

The negotiation process in a personal injury case needs to be handled carefully. In almost every case, the insurance company will try to settle for an amount that is much lower than it should be. Insurance adjustors are known to be aggressive. They will often contact the victim and make it appear that they have the victim’s best interests in mind. In reality, they are mostly concerned with the bottom line of the insurance company. To get the best settlement possible, a personal injury attorney can handle all aspects of the negotiation process. The attorney will have completed an investigation and learned details of the case. This allows the attorney to build a strong case to argue for the highest amount possible.

4. What is the Time Limit for a Personal Injury Claim?

When referring to time limits for bringing legal action, the term is “statute of limitation.” The statute of limitation is the amount of time a person has to file a claim, and it is different for each type of case. In personal injury cases, the clock starts at the time of the accident or injury. In California, the statute of limitation for most personal injury cases is two years. If the victim is a minor or if the case involved wrongful death, the statute of limitation is extended. It is important to file a claim within the allotted timeframe so that the case can proceed as expected. An experienced personal injury attorney can offer advice on the statute of limitation for your particular case.
