How Do I Know if I Have a Personal Injury Claim?

    ORLANDO, FL, December 04, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- A personal injury claim can be filed if you or someone you love has suffered a personal injury by someone else's intentional act or careless behavior. You will want to speak with a personal injury attorney to know if you have a personal injury claim. Every claim is different and the specifics of the accident that caused your injury will determine what type of claim you have.

Many accidents can cause a personal injury and result in a personal injury claim. Some of the accidents that lead to a personal injury claim include:

- Auto accidents
- Truck accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Dangerous drugs
- Defective products
- Medical malpractice
- Nursing home abuse
- Unsafe premises

Your experienced personal injury attorney will explain the legal process necessary to file your claim and give you the information you need to decide if you have a case. You and your attorney must prove three things for your claim:

- Another person caused the accident that resulted in your personal injury
- You have endured financial and emotional damages due to the injury
- A third party is responsible for the accident

Being Committed to Your Personal Injury Claim

Personal injury claims can be very time consuming. Your personal injury attorney is there to make sure you do not have to worry about your claim. He will keep on top of your case and ensure that all the necessary paperwork is filed by the required dates. He will constantly fight for your rights and get you the compensation you deserve.

Your personal injury claim may not go to trial for months or, possibly, years. Be sure that you can commit to your claim and that the possible compensation you may receive is worth the time it takes to go through the legal process. The insurance company may cause the case to drag out for an extended period of time in hopes that you will either drop your claim or settle for an amount that is much less than you deserve.

You may be required to show up for court to answer questions and prove that you have suffered a personal injury that was caused by the accident. You and your personal injury attorney are responsible for proving that the defendant is accountable for your injury. It is essential that you are prepared to answer questions and that you understand the length of time it may take to settle your claim. Your personal injury attorney will help you prepare for all of your court dates.
