PERSONAL INJURY

PERSONAL INJURY

Personal injury law provides legal remedies in the event you or your property are physically or mentally harmed due to an act or a failure to act by someone. Generally, a successful personal injury action results in the one who caused the injury (also known as the “tortfeasor”) compensates the person who suffered the harm or loss (also known as the “aggrieved” party). Every personal injury claim is decided on two fundamental issues: liability (who’s at fault) and damages (the amount of money required to make the aggrieved party whole). If these two issues can be proven, the court will often rule in favor of the aggrieved party and grant a compensatory award. Some of the more notable Personal Injury areas in which TLC can provide legal counsel for include, but are not limited to:

 

  • Traffic Accidents (Cars, Trucks, Motorcycles, Pedestrian, etc.)
  • Negligence (Slip & Fall, Wrongful Death, Malpractice, Vicarious Liability, Negligent Entrustment, etc.)
  • Products Liability (defective products, failure to warn)
  • Strict Liability (abnormally dangerous activities)
  • Tortious interference with prospective economic advantage (Defamation, Slander, and Reputational injury leading to financial harm)
  • Assault & Battery (Civil Liability for physical injuries or damage to property)
