A personal injury claim is a claim for monetary compensation for injuries and other harm caused by the negligence of another person or entity. “Negligence” means acting or failing to act the way a reasonably prudent person would act under similar circumstances. Essentially, “negligence” means “unreasonable carelessness.”
Regardless of how you were injured – whether in an auto accident, a medical accident, a slip or fall, a dog attack, by a defective product or by some other means – your personal injury claim is based in negligence, and you will have to prove negligence in order to obtain fair compensation for your injuries.
