Steps in Every Personal Injury Civil Lawsuit

Steps in Every Personal Injury Civil Lawsuit

When a person has been injured due to another person’s recklessness, negligence, or intent, it is the right of the injured person or their family or spouse to file a suit against the responsible party for damages. After an injury, such as from a car accident or a dog bite or medical error, you will no doubt have a lot of bills from the hospital or medical facility where you were treated. Additionally, if you are unable to work as a result of your injuries, then you might be worried about the financial issues you will face. If it seems unfair, it’s because it is, and that’s why a personal injury defense attorney works on your behalf to help you get compensated from the responsible party.

Be Seen By A Doctor, Or Go To The Emergency Room

The first step after being injured in any type of accident is to seek medical treatment. Even if you are unsure of whether or not you’re injured, you need to go to the emergency room or make an appointment with your position in order to determine whether or not you have any underlying injuries from the incident. Not only is this beneficial for your health — depending on the accident you could be suffering from internal bleeding or other conditions that typically don’t present symptoms until much later — it’s going to be required in order to present your case. If you do not seek medical treatment right away the prosecution is going to argue is that your symptoms were not severe. They will argue after that after all if they were severe you would’ve gone immediately, and instead are using this as an opportunity to get money out of the insurance company that you do not deserve. But you do deserve that conversation. Make sure that you collect every medical bill that you receive. Additionally, you will need to provide the medical records that prove your injuries, and also give a prognosis for your recovery. If you need physical therapy or years of emotional therapy to deal with the trauma that you experience, then your attorney will need that information in order to build a legal defense.

Gather Police Or Incident Reports

Get a police report if you were involved in a car accident, of course, you’re going to need to have the police report. However, if you were injured at your workplace or at another location where you were able to get an incident report you will need to provide that to your attorney.

Witness Testimonies

If anyone witnessed your accident, or if your attorney can bring in expert witnesses, then you will want to have their testimonies ready to be presented in court. Friends and family can also testify if there have been significant changes in your emotional health and well-being if you are suing for non-economic damages.

Hire An Attorney

The next step is to hire an attorney who will investigate your claim and review the documents that you’ve provided. Your attorney is going to first ask you about the day that the incident happened, so it’s important that you write down everything as you remember it for while it’s still fresh in your memory.
