The Many Forms of Personal Injury

Any type of serious injury can fall under the umbrella of personal injury as long as it was caused, at least in part, by someone else's negligent or deliberately wrongful actions. Victims of personal injury are entitled to recover compensation for losses and expenses related to their injury, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. If the injury was caused by the intentional malicious act of another party, victims can also be awarded punitive damages, a monetary award meant solely to punish the defendant.

A personal injury can occur in many ways. At the Law Offices of Edward J. Deason we typically handle cases that fall under the following practice areas:

Protect Yourself

If you or a family member has been injured through no fault of your own, it is important that you contact an attorney as soon as possible. In most cases, an adult must pursue his or her personal injury case within two years from the date of the injury. People under the age of 18 have until their 20th birthday to settle the case or file the lawsuit. There are many exceptions to these deadlines, including claims against public entities, medical and legal malpractice, and claims against estates to name a few. It is best to hire an attorney immediately following a serious accident. The Law Offices of Edward J.
