Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to Common Personal Injury Questions
How do I know if I have a personal injury case?
You likely do if:
Duty – The other party owed you a legal obligation (e.g. safe driving, hazard-free property).
Breach – They violated that duty (ran a red light, left a spill unmarked).
Causation – Their negligence directly caused your injury.
Damages – You suffered recoverable losses (medical bills, lost wages, pain & suffering).
What damages can I claim in a personal injury
lawsuit?
You may be entitled to:
Medical Expenses – Past and future treatment
Lost Wages – Missed work and reduced earning capacity
Pain & Suffering – Physical and emotional distress
Property Damage – Vehicle, belongings, etc.
Loss of Enjoyment – Impact on daily life or hobbies
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?
Statute of limitations is typically 1 to 3 years from the date of the injury.
Can I negotiate with insurance companies on my
own?
Yes, you can—but be aware:
