GET STARTED WITH A FREE CASE EVALUATION

As any Chula Vista personal injury lawyer will tell you, personal injury cases can be difficult to win. Even if it is apparent that the other party caused your injury, your injury attorneywill still need to prove that their actions (or nonaction) were a major factor.

Issues can become even more complicated if multiple parties or large companies are involved, but even then, it is possible to obtain compensation for your injuries. Compensation can be obtained for the following:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of income
  • Everyday expenses
  • Present and future medical bills
  • Property damage

If you or someone you care about is considering filing a personal injury suit, continue reading to learn more about the law.

Types of Personal Injury Cases

There are many types of personal injury cases, some more serious than others, but more than likely, the injured party will need the legal aid of a Chula Vista personal injury lawyer. If a person has been harmed in one or more of the following manners, it would be wise to consult an attorney at once:

  • Slips and fall
  • Auto accident
  • Defective product
  • Animal attack
  • Dangerous drug

If a person has been assaulted by another person, the injured party can file a personal injury suit against the assaulter even if they were found not guilty in a criminal court. Since the burden of proof is not as great in civil courts, many injured individuals are able to obtain compensation in this manner.

Elements of a Personal Injury Claim

There are many different aspects of a successful personal injury case, but few are as important as establishing that the defendant engaged in a negligent action. A Chula Vista personal injury attorney will be in charge of achieving this, and they must convince the court that the injuries of their client were either directly or indirectly caused by the other person or entity.

There are three primary components of negligence. First, it must be proven that the defendant was responsible for ensuring the safety of the injured person to some degree. Secondly, the defendant must not have taken this responsibility seriously or failed to act. Finally, the injury must have occurred when the defendant failed to act to ensure the safety of the other party.

Obtaining Compensation for Injuries

After a devastating personal injury, an injured person and their attorney will more than likely decide to seek monetary compensation. The amount of the award will be determined by the court, and it may be more than enough to assist the injured person with bills and other expenses. If a person sustains a severe injury, they could be looking at having to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills, rehabilitation therapy appointments, and other costs.

In addition to medical expenses, their injury may prevent them from working and providing for their family. It is simply unfair that an individual should have to pay for these costs on their own without assistance from the responsible party.

VIDEO TESTIMONIALS

It is no secret that California is home to some of the nation’s busiest highways. Between tourists traveling through the state on vacation, large commercial vehicles transporting goods locally and to the other side of the country, and local residents on their way to or from work or errands, roads and highways can get quite congested.
