The legal definition of the word “negligence” is the violation of a duty of care owed, which proximately causes damages. If a person is found to be negligent, then this person is legally responsible (liable) for a number of different types of damages, and can be forced to pay fair compensation for these damages. Such damages include:
Multiple Serious Injuries / Truck vs. Car Accident
Neck & Back Injuries / Motorcycle Accident
Traumatic Brain Injury / Bicycle vs. Car Accident
Numerous Fall Injuries / Premises Liability
Wrongful Death of a Child / Motor Vehicle Accident
Knee Injuries, Scars & Surgery /Dog Bite
Numerous Injuries and Surgeries / Rope Climbing Accident
Most insurance companies will not compensate a claimant fully and fairly unless all of the damages are properly documented and supported with expert opinions and legal precedent. It is our job as your legal counsel to build a strong and persuasive case on your behalf. Often, the insurance company will settle your claim at that point based upon the strength of this evidence. If the insurer still persists in unreasonably denying or diminishing your claim, we will recommend that we file a lawsuit. The issue of whether or not to go into litigation, however, is always ultimately your decision. If we do file a lawsuit, we will use the legal system to force the insurer to act responsibly and compensate you fairly. Equitable compensation is the goal of every personal injury case.
