What is Personal Injury Law? Personal injury involves civil cases where you may file for compensation for an injury you received as a result of another’s negligence. Personal injury falls under Tort Law. A tort is a civil mistake recognized by law as grounds for a lawsuit.
The main goal of tort law is to provide relief for the damages incurred and deter others from committing similar mistakes. The injured person may seek to prevent the continuation of the dangerous conduct or file for monetary damages. Among the types of damages the injured party may recover are: loss of earnings capacity, pain and suffering, and reasonable medical expenses. They include both present and future expected losses.
