Do I Have a Personal Injury Case?
Serving West Virginia and Ohio, including Parkersburg, Charleston, Morgantown, Huntington, Wheeling, Belpre, and Athens
If you have suffered an injury to your person or property and that injury was someone else's fault, then you have a personal injury case. It is important to note that a personal injury does not always have to be a physical injury. Some personal injury claims may be based on a variety of nonphysical losses and harms.
You may also be entitled to damages if someone has attacked your reputation, invaded your privacy, subjected you to extreme emotional distress, or committed verbal abuse. In order to seek damages for your injuries, you must first be able to prove that they were caused by the negligent actions of another.
Even if your personal injury case involves only minor injuries, you may still be entitled to substantial monetary damages. Medical expenses including hospital bills, medications, and personal therapy can be recovered. In cases of extreme negligence, punitive damages can be recovered to ensure that the conduct is not repeated in the future. In the case of a death within a family, surviving family members can recover damages through wrongful death lawsuits.
Many personal injury claims can be resolved through mediation rather than a jury trial. Mediation has become one of the most popular methods of arriving at a reasonable compromise settlement, especially in claims that would be very expensive and difficult to litigate. When mediation is successful, the claim or litigation ends without any further costs to the client. If mediation fails, you must then resort to litigation and jury trial to recover the compensation you deserve. A successful mediation is an extremely cost-effective procedure that can save you an enormous amount of money in litigation expenses.
If you or a loved one has been injured by the negligent actions of another, please contact our Ohio and West Virginia personal injury attorneys today to arrange a consultation.
