Personal Injury- the area of the law which involves civil cases designed to obtain compensation for injury to your person. We try to negotiate with the insurance company or the person who caused the harm.  If necessary,  the case may go to trial. The main concerns in a personal injury case are negligence and liability. Before you can collect an award, we will have to prove that the defendant is responsible for the damage done because of their failure to act as a reasonable person would have under the circumstances. To prove liability, we must establish negligence.  Once liability and negligence have been established, the judge or the jury may award money to compensate for medical costs, lost wages and lost future earnings, disfigurement as well as for pain and suffering.
