Guide to Personal Injury Claims
Personal injury can be sustained in many different ways. For example, you may be injured at work, in a car accident or whilst on the property of another person. In all cases, somebody owes you a duty of care and if they breach their duty of care to you, and you suffer loss, you may claim compensation from that person. This is the Law.
In certain circumstances, such as at work, there is no need to prove negligence (a duty of care, etc) to be entitled to receive compensation. However time limits do apply so it is important that you talk to a personal injury lawyer today.
HOW TO WIN YOUR PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM
Winning isn’t everything, unless your life is on the line. After suffering a personal injury, lives can be forever altered by the lingering affects of the accident.

Accidents can happen to absolutely anyone and the injuries that result can affect the lives of so many others, including family members. Most personal injuries are the result of:
- MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS - Road travel can be very dangerous and your chances of being involved in an accident are higher than normal while traveling by car or motorcycle. Distractions, intoxication, and mechanical failure are often contributors to these types of accidents.
- WORKPLACE ACCIDENTS - Long hours, stress, and inefficiency are all reasons why many workers are involved in accidents that result in broken limbs, sprained and strained muscles, and even dismemberment.
- SLIPS and FALLS - Sidewalks, inappropriate footwear, tiled floors, and even grass can all be the culprit in these types of personal injuries. Many of these accidents could be prevented by simple signage, proper training, and making repairs swiftly.
- ACCIDENTS in the HOME - We like to feel safe in our homes, but most accidents occur either in our homes or very near them. Often these accidents are due to faulty wiring, appliances, or other materials within the home. Manufacturers can be held liable for damages that are caused by their products even after you move in. Check your warranties for details.
- DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS - Companies recall thousands of products every year because of dangerous or faulty parts. Many get the warning before it’s too late, others don’t. Products that don’t work can cause many injuries to the unsuspecting, particularly those items that are widely used by the public.
- MEDICAL MALPRACTICE - When we seek medical care, we entrust that our lives are in good hands, but even health professionals are not immune to the pervasiveness of accidents. Failure to diagnose, misdiagnosis, and wrong medical treatment are all common types of medical practice.
