As a legal professional, you have some knowledge of personal injury law. However, if you are not a personal injury lawyer, simply starting the process of filing a claim can prove daunting.
Before referring your client’s case, being knowledgeable about the following basics is advisable:
While personal injury law covers a broad range of claims, not all are the basis for a lawsuit. It’s also important to remember that personal injury surpasses physical damage, meaning your client can receive money for non-physical pain associated with an accident.
When determining blame for your client’s injury, who is at fault depends on the case details and state laws. The court can find an individual, organization, city, municipality, government agency or others responsible for your pain.
