What justifies a personal injury lawsuit?

Thursday, April 30, 2009 by John P. Zanelotti


John P. Zanelotti, experienced personal injury lawyer in Prince George's County, Charles and Calvert Counties explains what justifies a personal injury lawsuit.  There are many types of personal injury claims including claims for injuries sustained as a result of motor vehicle accidents, medical malpractice, nursing home negligence, and hospital malpractice. Another person, medical practice or business may be liable for injuries sustained if they were negligent, the negligence caused an injury and there are damages as a result.

If you file a personal injury law suit in Prince George, the defense attorney will take your deposition.  A deposition is the process for initially recording your thoughts, feelings, and facts about your incident or incidents that led to your injury.  When you testify in court later on, this deposition will be compared to your current answers in front of a judge or jury.

Certain factors may reduce your injury claim including past medical history, pre¬existing injuries, and prior claims history.  But, considerable compensation may be obtained if your injuries are severe and require extensive medical treatment, or required absences from work and permanent injuries.

The important factor in justifying your personal injury lawsuit is the difference between your quality of life before the accident as compared to after.  A trained personal injury attorney can help evaluate your claim, and guide you through understanding the process.
