What Type of Personal Injury Case Do You Have?

There are two ways of resolving a personal injury case:

  • A formal lawsuit, which involves civil court proceedings to find someone
    legally at fault and responsible for the personal injury
  • An informal settlement, which avoids a court case by negotiating a resolution

Informal settlement is more common when the party at fault wishes to settle without a lot of publicity or costs beyond the agreed-upon amount of the settlement.

Formal Lawsuit

A formal lawsuit occurs when a private individual files a civil complaint against a defendant, which could be a person, business, corporation, or government agency. The personal injury complaint is filed alleging that the defendant acted carelessly or irresponsibly, resulting in the accident or injury. Court proceedings are initiated to determine whether the defendant is legally responsible for the injury, and if so, what restitution they are required to pay.

Informal Settlement

In an informal settlement, the resolution is reached with the approval of the injured, the accused, their insurance companies, and the attorneys all agreeing on the amount and form of compensation. The steps involved are negotiation, written agreement, and then payment.

Your attorney will work with you to determine which type of personal injury case you have and how it can be settled to your satisfaction. In some cases, mediation and arbitration may be recommended as a means to an agreement. If no agreement can be reached through these methods, your case may go to court.

Our Role as Your Attorneys

No one is prepared – emotionally or financially – to be injured in an accident that can force them to miss days, weeks, or months of work. Not only do victims miss out on wages they need to pay their bills, but they also may be facing medical expenses that can easily add up to tens of thousands of dollars. Our attorneys can help you avoid falling into debt by pursuing financial compensation on your behalf.

When we file your claim, we aim to recover the following damages:

  • Medical bills, including the costs of surgeries, hospital stays, medications, physical therapy, and other costs
  • Lost wages and future earning capacity
  • Property damage, such as car repairs
  • Pain and suffering

Though you may feel alone in your pain, our lawyers can remind you through our tireless legal support that you have a team willing to fight for your future.

Call our Charlotte attorneys now to assess your personal injury claim at (704) 377-3737. We offer free, no-obligation consultations for potential clients in English
or Spanish.
