Personal Injury

The term “personal-injury” is used to refer to physical or psychological injuries that are caused by the negligence of another person or entity. This damage can be caused as a result of motor vehicle and trucking accidents, slip and fall accidents, dog bites or animal attack incidents, or as a result of the use of defective products.

In order to file a personal injury claim, it is important to prove that the defendant failed to do what was reasonably required of him in order to prevent the accident. This is an important requirement, and can be the foundation of your personal injury claim.

Broadly, the types of personal injury claims that attorneys come across involve.

Automobile Accidents

According to the auto industry, an average American will file a car accident claim in the United States every 17.9 years. There are approximately 10,000,000 accidents in the country every year, and these cover the gamut from minor fender benders, that result in little property damage and no injuries to devastating accidents, that result in catastrophic life-altering injuries and fatalities.

Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrians feature at the bottom of the food chain when it comes to road safety. Unfortunately, there is very little respect for pedestrian rights, and many cities are simply designed to be friendly to motorists, with little thought to pedestrian requirements. Not surprisingly, therefore, is the fact that pedestrian accident fatalities in the United States are actually up.

Distracted Driving Accidents

Laws against distracted driving have been enacted in virtually every state in the country, including in Maryland. However, while these laws have been effective to some degree, they still do not help prevent the approximately 6,000 fatalities that occur every year, in accidents linked directly to an inattentive driver.
