Why Should I File a Personal Injury Lawsuit?

An unexpected injury can be incredibly stressful and overwhelming. You may find that your injury requires extensive medical care and keeps you out of work. This can prove to be very costly. At least one insurance report found that, in 2013, the average cost of a bodily injury claim after a car accident exceeded $15,000. The average American doesn’t have $15,000 sitting around for a rainy day. In fact, the majority of Americans don’t have $500 saved in case of an emergency. Filing a personal injury lawsuit offers the best opportunity to recover the money you absolutely need after an accident.

What Damages Can I Recover From a Personal Injury Claim?

In California, accident victims are generally allowed to recover economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages are awarded to put you back in the financial position you would have been in if you’d never been injured. Examples of economic damages include:

  • Hospitalization
  • Medical bills
  • Rehabilitation
  • Nursing care
  • Prescription medication
  • Income lost during recovery, and
  • Reduced earning capacity.

Non-economic damages are awarded to compensate for the subjective and hard-to-value injuries that may develop because of an accident. These injuries are no less serious because these may not have direct financial costs. Examples of non-economic damages include:

  • Emotional distress
  • Embarrassment
  • Pain and suffering, and
  • Loss of enjoyment of life.

Why Should I Hire a Personal Injury Attorney?

You’re Too Stressed

The time after an accident can be incredibly overwhelming. Instead of focusing your time and energy on battling a complex legal claim, you should be dedicated to your recovery. Hiring an attorney to take the lead in your case will give you the time, energy, and resources that you need to get better.

You May Know What Your Claim is Worth

Valuing a personal injury claim can be difficult. If you proceed without a lawyer, the insurance companies you’re up against will try to get you to accept a lowball offer. They have plenty of tricks up their sleeve and can be very persuasive if you’re not familiar with their tactics. Hiring an attorney will help to ensure that your claim is valued appropriately. At Citywide Law Group, we will thoroughly investigate your claim and determine all potentially liable parties. We will make sure that you are fairly compensated for your injuries, and not just given an amount that the insurance company would rather pay.

You’ll Recover More With the Help of a Lawyer

You’re filing a personal injury lawsuit because you want to recover money from the person who is responsible for your injury. If you want to maximize the amount of money you receive, you should hire an attorney. Personal injury lawsuits can be time-consuming, complicated, and often require specialized knowledge. Yoru attorney will navigate any legal issues that arise and fight to make sure that you get the maximum award to which you are entitled.

When Do I Have a File a Personal Injury Lawsuit?

In California, accident victims have a limited amount of time to file a lawsuit for damages. The amount of time you have, which is known as the statute of limitations, will depend on what caused your injury.

Bodily Injury Claim: Most personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the date of your accident.

Medical Malpractice: Claims for injuries resulting from medical malpractice must be filed within one year of discovering the injury or within three years from the date of your accident, whichever is earliest.

Birth Injury: Claims for a birth-related injury must be filed before the injured child turns eight.

Government Liability: If you believe that the government is responsible for your injury you must file an administrative claim within six months of your accident.

On-the-Job Injury: Workers’ compensation claims must be initiated no later than 30 days after you discover a workplace injury, disease, or disability.

The best way to ensure that your claim is filed on time is by consulting an experienced Compton personal injury attorney as soon as possible after an accident.
