Personal injury incidents can take on several forms that you must understand if you were hurt. Consider the ramifications of the incident, who caused your injuries, and how you should be compensated.
Personal injuries can result from any of these situations:
While car crashes, dog bites, medical malpractice, and slips and falls are clearly covered under personal injury law, you may be surprised to find that assaults, construction accidents, and dog bites, can also be compensated with a personal injury claim.
Slips and falls, even in someone’s home, can be compensable if the homeowner was negligent in maintaining their home. Someone who has been assaulted may be able to sue their attacker or an employer responsible for their attacker for injuries or losses under New York Civil Practice Law & Rules (CVP) § 215.
Workplace injuries suffered by independent contractors or exempt employees are not covered under workers’ compensation. In these cases, you can sue the responsible third-party for their negligence. A defective product may have caused your injury. The company or companies involved in making or selling that product could be named as a defendant in a personal injury lawsuit.
