PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

WHAT IS IT?

A personal injury claim is related to the pursuit of compensatory damages caused by another’s actions that resulted in physical, emotional or mental harm. The most common personal injury claims are related to accidents involving motor vehicles. 

Damages paid in a personal injury claim can be for damages to personal property, incurred medical expenses, lost wages and non economic damages such as pain and suffering. 

Not all personal injury claims require a lawsuit to be filed though some do. Even when a lawsuit is filed, most claims are settled before ever going to court.

WHAT TO DO AFTER AN ACCIDENT

NOT YOUR FAULT

  • Check for injuries: The first thing you should do after a car accident is check yourself and others involved in the accident for any injuries. If anyone is hurt, call for medical assistance immediately.
  • Contact the police: It is important to call the police after a car accident, even if it’s a minor one. The police will create a report of the accident which will be useful for auto insurance claim purposes.
  • Exchange information: Exchange information with the other driver(s) involved in the accident. This includes names, phone numbers, insurance company and policy number, driver’s license number, and vehicle registration number.
  • Gather evidence: Take photos of the scene, including the damage to the vehicles, the license plates, and the location of the accident. This evidence may be useful when filing an auto insurance claim.
  • Contact your insurance company: Inform your insurance company and report the accident. Provide them with all the necessary information, including the police report and the contact details of the other driver(s) involved.
  • ​Seek legal advice: If you were injured or the damage to your car is extensive, you may want to seek legal advice from a personal injury lawyer.
  • Remember to remain calm and collected throughout the process. Avoid admitting fault or blaming the other driver(s) involved in the accident. Your focus should be on ensuring your safety and gathering information to file your auto insurance claim.

DEADLINES TO FILE

HOW MUCH IS

MY CLAIM WORTH

Personal Injury Claims range from thousands to millions. The amount of compensation may vary based on a number of things. Factors that are considered when determining the award can be the following: the amount of property damage, the severity of your injuries and costs to treat (is your injury just soreness, or will this be a long term impairment), was the other party completely at fault for the accident, were there multiple cars involved, did you miss any days of work, the insurance policies in force, the personal assets of the other party, whether you file a lawsuit, your negotiation skills and more…

WHAT SHOULD I DO

First, if you are injured or feeling pain, you should get checked out by a doctor. Many injuries from a car accident manifest days after the collision. If you try to tough it out and not seek medical attention, your claim may be weak. 

Before you talk to the other side’s insurance you need to know your rights. Get a free case evaluation to find out how strong your case is and how much you should demand.

What are Qualifications

Generally, you cannot be at fault for the accident. However, many jurisdictions allow you to recover even if you have fault for the accident. 

Your claim must be filed in the allotted time. This time generally ranges from 1 year to 4 years. Certain instances must be reported in months.
