Houston Personal Injury Lawyer

As a legal term, personal injury refers to any injury to body, mind, emotions or well-being as a result of someone else's negligence, whether it was intended or not. As used in everyday conversations, personal injury refers to the type of lawsuit that the victim files when seeking recovery for the damages that they incurred as a result of the negligence. If negligence can indeed be proven through an eyewitness, documentation and other evidence, the person injured is usually entitled to some form of compensation. Only qualified personal injury attorneys or personal injury lawyers can properly evaluate your case and determine if you have a valid personal injury claim.

A properly documented lawsuit with well-stated legal precedence will most often be settled without the case going to court. At this point, both parties will usually agree to a settlement for the filed (or threatened) claim and the injured party is compensated for their damages. A personal injury lawsuit is a civil action, so cases that do make it to a courtroom never rule on the guilt or innocence of the defendant, but the liability for the negligence. Once negligence has been documented in a personal injury case, it is up to the plaintiff's attorney to establish a monetary amount that would be fair and reasonable compensation for the damages involved.

Your Personal Injury Claim

People are injured every day. If the negligence of another person's actions, a dangerous condition that existed on someone's property or a company's defective product has caused you or a loved one to suffer, you may have a valid personal injury claim. Texas law provides protection for victims of motor vehicle accidents, accidents that occur while you are at work, accidents that happen in a place of business or complications arising from medical care. If your injury could have been prevented with proper conduct or by safer products, you may have grounds for a lawsuit to determine compensation for your medical expenses, loss of income, loss of earning capacity, physical pain, mental anguish and physical impairment or disfigurement.

In most cases, your claim should be settled without having to present your case in a Houston courtroom and the actual settlement will occur after negotiations with the defendant's insurance company. In certain situations, it may be in the client's best interest for the case to go before a jury and your personal injury lawyer may seek "Special Damages" based on the components of your personal injury lawsuit. Qualified injury attorneys or personal injury lawyers can help you determine a monetary amount for your recovery.
