(USGovernment-News.Com, September 07, 2013 ) BATON ROUGE, LA -- Personal injury law can sometimes be a confusing area for victims who are unsure of their rights. When a wrongful act is committed it is known as a tort. A tort assigns responsibility to the person or entity which committed the act. This assignation of responsibility means they are liable for the injury or harm that was caused as a direct result of their negligence.
Personal injury claims can come in many forms and arise out of a variety of situations. Some of the most common include:
Medical malpractice
Slip-and-fall cases
Wrongful death
Car accidents
Truck accidents
Motorcycle accidents
Workplace injury
Third-party claims
and many others.
Victims of personal injury have the right to file a claim and seek legal counsel to recover damages and compensation that may be owed to them because of the incident. In some cases, those who were indirectly affected by the negligence of the other party may also have valid personal injury claims. In a wrongful death case, the family members of the deceased person could file a claim for personal injury because of the loss of their loved one and the income they may have provided to the family, which is now lost.
