Common Types Of Personal Injury Cases

Attorney Goldberg provides dedicated legal representation in personal injury matters, including those involving:

  • Auto accidents: After a crash, getting medical attention and gathering evidence is crucial to safeguarding your rights and future. Each state has different laws for auto accident claims. Understanding the particular rules that apply to you is extremely important when seeking compensation.
  • Slip-and-fall accidents: Property owners must maintain safe premises. When they don’t, it can expose visitors to fall hazards such as wet floors, bad lighting or uneven surfaces. Individuals hurt by such negligence may be able to pursue a premises liability lawsuit against a property owner. Meanwhile, if a worker suffers a slip-and-fall injury on the job, a workers’ comp claim is typically their main route to relief.
  • Medical malpractice: This occurs when a health care provider fails to meet the standard of care and causes a patient to suffer harm. Proving these cases can be challenging and often requires expert testimony.
  • Defective Products: Many types of products have the potential to cause serious harm when they contain defects, including medical devices, pharmaceuticals and auto parts. Those hurt by such items typically can pursue product liability lawsuits against product manufacturers, retailers or other parties.

Let Attorney Goldberg be your trusted advocate when such a case arises for you.

What Damages May Be Available In Personal Injury Cases?

In personal injury cases, there are two main classes of compensation you can seek:

  • Economic damages: Compensation for monetary losses such as medical bills or lost wages
  • Noneconomic damages: Compensation for harm of a nonfinancial nature, including pain and suffering

Many things can impact how much a case could be worth, including whether any damage caps are present. States vary quite a bit on this front. For example, when it comes to medical malpractice, Virginia caps total damages, Maryland caps noneconomic damages and Washington, D.C., has no cap.

The Role Of A Personal Injury Attorney

Such a lawyer can guide you through the legal process after an injury. They can use their skill and experience to investigate what happened, gather evidence to support your claim, negotiate with insurance companies to try to get you a fair settlement and advocate for you at trial if necessary. At Goldberg Law, LLC, you get all this with no upfront costs. You only pay the firm if you get compensation.
