Handley LLC April 22, 2020

Claims of personal injury require an experienced attorney who knows the nuances of various cases, from car accidents to homeless abuse and neglect. Our personal injury attorneys specialize in the law of personal injury and many of our clients are also concerned about the validity of their lawsuit, procedures and time limits.

Is It a Valid Claim?

To get the claim you must prove that it has been done wrongfully or by negligence and someone else is at fault. Most of the cases need medical attention and intensive treatment; you are supposed to get the claim.

When You Can File an Injury Lawsuit?

Every state has their own statute of limitations. It ensures when you can file a case for personal injury. You should ask your attorney to know the limitation to file a lawsuit. But it is always best to pursue the case after the incident. There is no point in delaying the lawsuit filing. As the evidence preservation is essential you should not delay it.

Negligence

Negligence when a person does not act accordingly the way he/she should act in the situation. Driver disobeying the traffic rules, nurses and doctors doing medical malpractice everything is negligence.

It Is More than Car Accident

Though vehicle accidents make a good number of personal injury cases but that is not the limitation. Any harm where a person suffers from someone else’s negligence is personal injury. Wrongful death, dog bite, defective product and injury everything comes under this.

Insurance Company May Fraud You

Insurance companies often try to fraud the compensation or limit the claim of medical expenses. They may try to undervalue the case and provide less compensation. If you feel your insurance company is doing so, hire an attorney.

An Experienced Attorney Helps

Victims of a personal injury often fail to return their job due to the severity, or they need long-term care, or face intensive medical expenses. An experienced personal injury attorney knows the physical, financial claims that come with the mental trauma. To prevent the situation, go beyond the control, an attorney helps to get the compensation.
