What is a Personal Injury Claim

A personal injury claim is a legal case brought by an individual who has been injured physically, emotionally, or psychologically due to the negligence or wrongdoing of another party. These claims typically arise from incidents such as car accidents, slip and falls, medical malpractice, or defective products. The aim of a personal injury claim is to seek compensation (damages) for the losses suffered as a result of the injury. This compensation may cover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related costs. Personal injury claims are handled in civil court and often involve negotiations with insurance companies or legal proceedings to ensure fair compensation for the injured party’s losses.
