What Are the Most Common Personal Injury Accidents We Handle?

Below, we’ll discuss some of the most common types of personal injury accidents that we handle at Hassuneh Law Firm. We’ll also talk about what you can do if you’ve been injured in one of these accidents. So please keep reading for more information.

Car Accidents

One of the most common types of personal injury cases that we handle at Hassuneh Law Firm is car accidents. Every year, thousands of people in the United States are injured or killed in car accidents, and many of these accidents could have been prevented. We’ll thoroughly investigate your accident and gather evidence to support your claim. We’ll work with your insurance company on your behalf to ensure that you receive the entire amount of compensation you are entitled to.

Truck Accidents

Truck accidents are another common type of personal injury case that we handle. These accidents are often much more serious than car accidents because of the size and weight of the trucks. If you’ve been injured in a truck accident, we’ll work to get you the compensation you need and deserve after you have suffered injuries.

Catastrophic Injuries

Another sort of personal injury lawsuit that we deal with is catastrophic injuries. These injuries can be life-changing and often require long-term or even lifelong care. We’ll work to get you the money you deserve to cover your medical expenses and other losses if you or a loved one has been hurt severely.

Wrongful Death

If you’ve lost a loved one in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to file a wrongful death lawsuit. This type of lawsuit can be complex and emotional, but we’ll be by your side every step of the way to help you get the justice and compensation you deserve.

How Does One Prove Negligence in a Personal Injury Case?

Personal injury cases usually turn on the question of whether one party was negligent. To win a negligence case, the injured person (the plaintiff) must prove four things:

The defendant had a duty to act reasonably under the circumstances
The defendant breached that duty by failing to act reasonably
The plaintiff was injured as a result of the defendant’s breach
The plaintiff’s injuries were reasonably foreseeable at the time of the defendant’s breach

In some states, if the plaintiff is partly at fault for his or her injuries, the plaintiff’s recovery may be reduced by his or her percentage of fault. This is called “comparative fault.” For example, suppose you are hit by a car while crossing the street. The driver of the car says that you walked out into traffic without looking and that you are, therefore, partly at fault for your injuries. Your damages (medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, etc.) will be reduced based on the percentage of fault the jury finds you to be responsible for.

How Much Money Can I Get for My Injury Claim?

The amount of money you can get in a personal injury lawsuit depends on a few factors: the severity of your injuries, how much your medical bills have been, how much income you have lost as a result of your injuries, and the “pain and suffering” you have endured because of your injuries.

In some cases, such as medical malpractice or car accident cases, there may also be punitive damages available. Punitive damages are designed to punish the wrongdoer for their reckless or careless actions and to deter others from acting similarly in the future.

If you’ve been injured in an accident that was someone else’s fault, you should:

See a doctor or go to the hospital as soon as possible
Get the contact information (name, address, phone number, and insurance information) of anyone else who was involved in the accident
Take pictures of any injuries you have and of the property damage caused by the accident
Keep track of all medical appointments, expenses, lost wages, etc.
