Do I Have a Personal Injury Case?
Whether or not you have a personal injury case that can be won depends on several factors, including the specific circumstances of your case, the laws of your state, and the evidence available.
However, there are some general things you can look for to help you determine if you have a case.
Did You Suffer a Legally Recognized Injury?
In order to recover damages in a personal injury case, you must have suffered a legally recognized injury. This could include physical injuries, such as broken bones or burns, or emotional injuries, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or depression.
Did Someone Else's Negligence Cause Your Injury?
You must be able to prove that someone else's negligence caused your injury. This means that the other party must have failed to act in a reasonable manner and that their failure to act caused your injury.
Do You Have Evidence to Support Your Case?
You’ll also need to provide evidence to support your claim. This could include medical records, photographs of your injuries, eyewitness testimony, or police reports.
