What falls under personal injury law?
Personal injury law can be confusing, which is why it's so important to consult with an attorney if you're injured in an accident due to someone else's negligence. There are many types of personal injury cases, and there's a lot of overlap between them. The most common scenarios that fall under the umbrella of personal injury law:
- Slip and fall accidents
- Car accidents
- Dog bites
- Defective products
Personal injury law protects people who have been injured physically or mentally because of someone else's wrongful actions. In most cases, it involves accidents, injuries, and medical problems resulting from car accidents and other motor vehicle incidents, slip-and-fall situations, dog bites, defective products, construction site accidents, and job-related injuries. Any kind of harm or loss that occurs because someone else was negligent, reckless, or engaged in willful misconduct can be covered by personal injury law.
However, if you've suffered a personal injury in an area that isn't covered by these kinds of laws, it doesn't mean you can't receive the compensation you deserve for your injuries. It simply means that another type of law may come into play instead.
