Personal injury law covers injuries caused by someone else’s negligence or fault. This includes car accidents, slips and falls, medical malpractice, and product liability.
In California, the goal is to make the injured party whole by recovering medical expenses, lost income, property damage, and other damages.
Personal injury law is a civil claim that allows an injured person to seek financial compensation from the party responsible for causing the harm. This area focuses on accountability and fair remedies through negotiation, mediation, or trial.
