What is personal injury?

These are injuries that you likely wouldn’t have suffered if another person had been careful to avoid harming you. This covers a wide range of injuries, so we’ll need to get more specific as we handle your case.

If you're hurt, go to a doctor immediately. This is the best course of action for both your health and your case. A medical provider can properly documents your injuries. Insurance companies will use it against you if you don't go to the doctor for injuries right away. When you see a doctor, it is vitally important that you tell him or her exactly what happened.

What should I do after an accident?

If you are hurt in an auto accident, go to the hospital and call the police. Ensure that the police officer at the scene hears your side of the events, make note of any witnesses around and get their contact information since you may need their account later. Try to take photos of the damage to your car before it's repaired. If you go to the hospital for injuries, make sure to tell the doctors how you were hurt and to mention any prior injuries to the same body part, if applicable.

Take pictures of what hurt you, fill out an accident report if you are hurt at a store or restaurant, and make note of any witnesses that may be needed later. Contact a lawyer before giving any statements to any insurance company. There is only one reason they want to secure your statement, to try and use it against you later.

Should I speak to the insurance company?

In most cases, the insurance company has one goal: either to deny your claim or pay you as little as possible. They use recorded statements as a tool to gain information to use against you, so be sure to speak with an attorney before giving a statement to an insurance company.

Who can be liable for my injuries?

Any person who was responsible for the accident or other act, either solely or in part, can be found liable for the resulting injuries. Even those not directly causing your injury can be held liable for an injury sustained on their premises or injuries caused by the personal property that they own. For example, the owner of a dog whose attack caused your injuries can be held liable for the resulting injury.

Can I receive compensation even if I did not suffer physical injuries?

If your bodily injuries are the result of someone else's negligence, you are entitled to recover damages for those physical injuries. Even if you have not sustained a bodily injury, however, you may be entitled to compensation and damages. You may be entitled to financial compensation for any damage that occurred because of the negligent acts of another including lost wages, opportunities, and other economic loss. You may also be entitled to damages for mental anguish, and pain and suffering. If your situation results in personal injury or the death of a close relative, such as your spouse or child, you could be entitled to loss of consortium and other relevant damages. The Edwards Firm, LLC offers the experienced legal representation you deserve and provides effective and efficient legal representation regarding any issues that have arisen as a result of your accident.
