Irvine Paralysis Injury Lawyer

No one ever wants to get hurt in any kind of accident, and certainly not through an accident caused entirely by another person’s misconduct. However, you could seek restitution for the full value of any losses someone else causes you to suffer by injuring you through their reckless or careless actions.

You have the right to demand civil compensation after being paralyzed through someone else’s negligence, but as any experienced catastrophic injury attorney knows, the recovery process for this type of injury works differently in practice compared to the process for short-term injuries. You should retain our Irvine paralysis injury lawyer if you have been hurt in this way, so you can make sure you get the best possible resolution from your lawsuit or settlement demand.

What Makes Someone Legally Liable for a Paralyzing Injury?

The fact that an accident resulted in someone suffering a life-altering injury does not automatically make everyone else involved in the incident legally liable for that injury. Just like with any other personal injury claim, civil fault for paralyzing injuries to the spinal cord, brain, or any other part of the body lies with whoever was primarily at fault for causing that injury to happen through their own irresponsible actions.

Depending on the circumstances, this could look like a driver causing a high-speed traffic collision by violating a traffic law, a landowner not fixing or informing a lawful property visitor about a slipping or tripping hazard, or a host of other acts that are serious enough to qualify as a breach of a legal duty of care. As our Irvine paralysis injury attorney can explain, someone may hold strict liability for a paralyzing injury in some situations—for example, if that injury stemmed mainly from a serious defect in a consumer product the product’s manufacturer should have addressed beforehand.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS A PERSONAL INJURY?

Personal injury cases are some of the most common civil litigation cases—also known as “tort actions” or “lawsuits”—in the United States. They are filed by individuals who have experienced bodily injury, pain and suffering, and sometimes property damage in an accident caused by a negligent third party. These claims can also be filed for intentional harm or defamation of character by a third party.

DO I NEED TO HIRE A PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY?

While you are not required to have an attorney to file a claim, having an attorney can make a significant difference in your claim. A personal injury attorney has a deep understanding of the claims process and can help you navigate the complexities of the law. Your attorney can also help you level the playing field with insurers and can tell you whether you are receiving the maximum compensation to which you are legally entitled.

I HAVE BEEN INJURED IN AN ACCIDENT – WHAT DO I DO NEXT?

Taking quick action after your accident can profoundly affect your personal injury claim or lawsuit. After being involved in an accident, you should: Seek medical attention for your injuries, even if symptoms are not immediately apparent. Keep a record of your injuries and note any complications that arise because of your injuries. Report the incident as soon as possible after it occurs. Record detailed descriptions and notes about the facts of the incident. Keep receipts of medication and medical care you received Contact an experienced personal injury attorney in Los Angeles who can help you navigate your claim.

WILL MY PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM GO TO TRIAL?

Not all personal injury claims make it to court. In fact, a majority of injury cases are settled without having to litigate. What’s the difference between a settlement and going to trial? What are the pros and cons of each? There are two ways in which compensation can be awarded to you for your claim: through a settlement or by going to trial. There are pros and cons to each. When your claim is settled, the compensation for your claim is decided outside of court, usually through negotiations between lawyers.

HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO FILE A PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM?

In California, you have two years to file a personal injury claim against an individual or non-government entity. If the injury is not immediately known, you have one year from the date the injury is discovered. If you’ve suffered injuries from an accident that was caused by someone else’s negligence, you should act quickly to ensure you are able to recover compensation for your losses.

Notifying Insurance Companies

You should notify your insurance company and the responsible party’s insurance company as soon as possible after your accident. Most insurance companies request that you file your claim within 24 – 48 hours after your accident. When you file a personal injury insurance claim, you are requesting that the at-fault party’s insurance pay for the losses you suffered as a result of your accident, and the compensation amount is determined during negotiations. Seeking Compensation You can get financial compensation in two ways: filing a personal injury insurance claim or filing a personal injury lawsuit. Generally, compensation can be sought for two types of damages: economic and non-economic. Economic damages are those with a measurable monetary value, such as medical expenses and lost wages. On the other hand, non-economic damages refer to losses that cannot be easily quantified, such as pain and suffering or emotional distress. It is important to understand the types of damages available in your case so that you can seek compensation for all of your related losses. Soon after your accident, contact a knowledgeable personal injury attorney in Los Angeles who can explain the time limits to you and help you get the compensation you deserve.
