| "Value has been defined as the ability to command the price." United States Supreme Court Justice Louis Dembitz Brandeis St. Louis & Ohio RR v. US Seeking Just Compensation When we are injured or a loved one is killed as a result of someone's negligence or criminal behavior, it is normal to seek redress in a court of law. For thousands of years, a lawsuit has been the answer for those who have suffered loss at the hands of another. When you are injured, whether at the hands of a physician, on the job, in a store, on a public street or on a highway, serious physical and mental trauma or death may result. The costs for many injuries and deaths affect families, employers and governments. Personal injury suits are just one way to ensure that financial failure does not accompany the trauma that occurred. When someone fails in their duties or falls beneath the standards set for them, the injured party must seek redress. This process is also a necessary element in sending a message to large companies that they must stay on top of safety and competent hiring practices. If you or a loved one is a victim of someone else's negligence or criminal behavior, you must seek representation from an experienced lawyer to assist you in filing a lawsuit to seek compensation for any resulting damages. The Law The cause of action in a personal injury lawsuit is usually one based in negligence, but an intentional cause of action may also exist. The statute of limitations is two years after the date of accident or injury. Money Damages Financial recovery can include past, present and future medical bills. Other potential areas of compensation, depending on the facts of the situation, are mental pain and suffering damages, lost past and future wages, permanent impairment/disfigurement, punitive damages, wrongful death damages and loss of enjoyment of life. Finding the right lawyer to protect your rights and address the wrong that has occurred in your life is a critical step. Your lawyer should take care of securing proper medical care, a diagnosis and a prognosis to establish a strong legal and financial future for you or your loved one. Why Pinkerton?
