The primary objective of personal injury law is to provide compensation to those who have been injured physically, emotionally, or financially as a result of someone else's wrongdoing. This area of law is often centered around the concept of torts, which are civil wrongs that result in harm or loss.
At Wilson & Novak Law Offices we understand Personal Injury Law because we deal with it every day and have worked personal injury claims from both the plaintiff and defense sides of the courtroom.
We are relentless in our efforts to recover the monetary damages owed to our clients.
Car accident injury involve individuals seeking compensation for injuries sustained in automobile accidents.
These claims typically hinge on the concept of negligence, wherein one party's failure to exercise reasonable care leads to the injury of another. Following a car accident, the injured party, known as the plaintiff, may file a claim against the at-fault driver, the defendant, seeking financial compensation for medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
The insurance company is often the party who pays for a car accident claim. They have lawyers on their side to fight to pay out less when an accident occurs. At Wilson & Novak Law Offices we are here to be on your side in a car accident claim.
Investigating a truck accident claim involves a thorough examination of factors like driver logs, maintenance records, and compliance with industry regulations. The legal process may include negotiations with insurance companies representing the parties involved, but due to the severity of truck accidents, these cases sometimes proceed to litigation.
Damages sought in truck accident claims can include medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, property damage, and compensation for pain and suffering.
Slip and fall personal injury cases fall under the broader category of premises liability in personal injury law. These cases involve individuals who suffer injuries due to hazardous conditions on someone else's property.
Common scenarios include slippery floors, uneven surfaces, poorly maintained walkways, or inadequate warning signs. Property owners, occupiers, or those responsible for maintenance can be held liable if they fail to address or adequately warn about such hazards.
Wrongful death lawsuits are legal actions brought by the surviving family members or beneficiaries of a deceased individual against a party they believe is responsible for the death. These lawsuits aim to seek compensation for the losses and damages incurred due to the untimely and wrongful death of a loved one.
Navigating the complexities of wrongful death lawsuits can be emotionally challenging for the surviving family members. Engaging the services of an experienced wrongful death attorney is often crucial in guiding plaintiffs through the legal process, conducting investigations, and ensuring that their rights are protected while pursuing just compensation for their loss.
