Personal Injury
When someone sustains a personal injury, in many cases he or she may file a claim for compensation benefits. The claim depends on a number of factors including the resultant loss from the injury and which laws apply to the circumstances surrounding the injury. The resultant loss may take the form of physical injury to the body, disfigurement and scarring, pain and suffering, disability, disruptions to the quality of life, lost wages, and reduced future earning capacity.
