Philadelphia Personal Injury

What is Personal Injury?

Philadelphia, like any other big city, has its share of accidents. People are injured in many different ways. Regardless of how and why, if someone else is responsible for their injury, they may be entitled to damages. This is done through a tort system in the United States. There are some types of personal injuries that lead to lawsuits more often than others do. Read on for some of these common types of personal injury.

Injury from a defective product

All products are required by law to be safe when used as they were intended. When default happens, the manufacturer can be held liable for negligence. Unfortunately, unsafe products are released occasionally and when this occurs, you may be entitled to recover damages in court.

Injury from a car accident

Car accidents are the most common type of personal injury and, unfortunately, in this country, they happen every day. Some are more serious than others. If a car accident has caused pain and suffering to you, you have the right to seek damages, including having your medical bills paid.

Injury from slip and fall

Slip and fall accidents can happen anywhere, at anytime. Stores and other public places must make their premises safe for you. If they haven’t and you are injured due to their negligence, you have the right to receive compensation for their negligence.

Injury from dangerous conditions

While slip and fall cases are most common, any type of unsafe condition in either a public place or private home can be considered negligent. If you slip and fall at your neighbors pool and are injured, they are held liable for your injuries.

Injury from intentional behavior

If someone intentional decides to hurt you, this is considered a civil case and if you are injured, you have the right to take action. If someone intentional puts harm on your person and you are injured, you have a great case to sue for damages.

Injury from a dog bite

If someone’s dog bites you, you are entitled to sue and recover damages in court. That dog’s owner is liable for any injuries you incurred.
