Personal Injury Cases Our Branchburg Township Personal Injury Lawyers Can Handle for You

A personal injury case is one in which someone is injured or harmed in some way by the actions or the dangerous, reckless, or incompetent inaction of another party. The other party can be an individual, a business, or even the government.

Unintentional injuries are a leading cause of death in the United States, and accidents leading to personal injuries are commonly seen in motor vehicle collisions, medical care, and workplaces. They also frequently occur in nursing homes, schools, parks, and on private and public property or private/public places of business.

Determining Liability For Personal Injury Cases In Branchburg Township

Most personal injury cases are caused by the negligence or recklessness of one party, leading to harm or losses of some sort to another party. Our Branchburg Township Personal Injury Lawyers can help you gather the evidence needed to demonstrate that the actions of the at-fault party harmed you. Armed with this evidence, you can file a compensation claim.

To win your claim, you must show that the at-fault party you hold liable for the accident owed you a duty of care. The duty of care is typically defined as the actions or precautions that a reasonable individual or actor would take in a given situation.

For example, for medical malpractice cases, the duty of care requires doctors and nurses to have the training, expertise, and knowledge required to treat their patients. In the same way, employers, business owners, schools, daycares, drivers, and other businesses and/or individuals are required to perform certain duties or meet certain standards relevant to their line of work to prevent undue harm to others.

A failure to meet these standards or take reasonable actions to prevent harm from being inflicted on someone else can be grounds for a personal injury claim against such a party. How and where this falls into the claims process is what we discuss next.

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Cases In Branchburg Township

FAQ: What kinds of insurance apply to my case?

It depends on the kind of accident you suffered. If you suffered a workplace accident, workers’ compensation rules would apply. For dog bites and accidents in the home, your health insurance and/or renters’/homeowners’ insurance would likely apply. For motor vehicle accidents, collision coverage, uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, and/or your basic liability/damages policy would apply.

FAQ: Should I accept an offer from the at-fault party?

Absolutely not. If you are made an offer, that is a sign that the at-fault party acknowledges that they are liable for your damages. if you accept an offer and you face unexpected medical bills, you will have to take care of those yourself. Furthermore, without a thorough investigation of what your case is worth, it is unwise to accept an offer without formally evaluating your damages and tallying your accident-related costs to include in your compensation claim.
