Media & Industry Recognitions
What is A “Personal Injury”?
Personal injury refers to a legal area that involves cases where an individual has sustained physical, emotional, or psychological harm due to the negligent or intentional actions of another party. In these cases, the injured party, known as the plaintiff, may seek compensation for the damages they have suffered. Personal injury cases typically revolve around the concept of negligence, which is the failure to exercise reasonable care, leading to harm to another person.
Some common types of personal injury cases we handle at Sutton & Smyth LLP include:
- Car Accidents: Car accidents are among the most common types of personal injury cases. They occur when a driver's negligence, such as reckless driving, speeding, or drunk driving, leads to an accident resulting in injuries to passengers, pedestrians, or other drivers.
- Truck Accidents: Accidents involving trucks, such as semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, and other large commercial vehicles, can result in severe injuries due to their size and weight.
- Premises Liability: Premises liability cases involve injuries that occur on another person's property due to unsafe conditions. These can include dog bites, swimming pool accidents, or injuries at retail stores, restaurants, and other public places.
- Slip and Fall Accidents: These cases arise when someone slips, trips, or falls due to hazardous conditions on someone else's property, such as wet floors, uneven surfaces, or inadequate lighting. Property owners or managers may be held liable for failing to maintain a safe environment.
- Construction Accidents: Construction workers face various hazards on job sites. When accidents occur, workers may seek compensation through workers' compensation claims or personal injury lawsuits against responsible parties, such as contractors or equipment manufacturers.
- Wrongful Death: When a person dies due to someone else's negligence or intentional actions, their surviving family members can pursue a wrongful death claim to seek compensation for their loss, including funeral expenses, medical bills, and emotional distress.
Many personal injury cases are resolved through negotiations between the parties involved and their insurance companies. An experienced NYC personal injury attorney can help you negotiate a fair settlement. If an agreement cannot be reached, the case may proceed to trial.
