Personal Injury Cases

PERSONAL INJURY FLSES Personal injury cases occur when a person suffers an injury due to another person’s negligence. There are three categories that personal injury cases fit into:

  • Careless misconduct is the most common type of personal injury
  • Reckless action is a more severe form of negligence (an accident caused by an intoxicated driver would be an example of a reckless action)
  • Intentional misconduct is the most severe type of personal injury (injury caused by someone with road rage)

  2. A manufacturing defect
  3. Inadequate warnings about the dangers of the product.

Wrongful Death
Personal injury claims that result in the victim dying from the injury.
