Important Factors in a Personal Injury Case

Every personal injury case is unique due to the many details that go into it. Yet there are a few important factors that need to be present in most cases for it to be legally valid.

Three important factors of a personal injury case include:

Negligence and liability: The defendant – or the person you want to pay for your damages – needs to have acted negligent and assumed sort extent of liability for your injuries. Negligence is broadly defined in some contexts as an action or behavior that a reasonable person would not have done in the same situation and that causes someone else to suffer some form of harm. Liability is set as a percentage to show how much “to blame” that party is for the claimant’s injuries. A defendant who was the sole cause of your injuries should be 100% liable.
Injury: Most personal injury cases cannot go far unless the claimant has suffered an injury that resulted in financial damages, pain, and other hardships. For example, if you were hit by a drunk driver but your car was barely affected and you were unharmed, then you might not have the grounds to file a claim. There are rare cases in which the claimant can seek damages without an injury, like a slander lawsuit, though.
Damages: The harm you have suffered must have amounted to damages in some form. In a personal injury case, economic damages are financial losses, like money spent on medical treatments or wages unearned. Noneconomic damages are intangible losses, like having to endure physical pain or mental anguish.

A:This depends on numerous factors and can’t be answered categorically. Schedule a free consultation with a personal injury attorney from the team at Vetchtein Law. We can help you understand your options.
Q:Should I accept a settlement offer from my insurance company?

A:Don’t agree to a settlement before speaking to our firm. We are experienced in these cases and can ascertain whether or not the offer is fair. If it isn’t sufficient, we are able to push your case further.
Q:If I pursue legal action, will I have to go to court?

A:Most like you will not have to go to court over your personal injury claim. The vast majority of these matters reach settlement pre-trial. But if your case does go to trial, don’t worry: Our team at Vetchtein Law is experienced and ready to fight for your interests and rights in any scenario.
Q:I don’t think I can afford an attorney. What should I do?

A:After an accident, you may feel that you are too strapped financially to hire a Newport Beach personal injury attorney, but this isn’t something you should worry about. At Vetchtein Law, we operate on a contingency fee basis. This means that unless we are successful in recovering on your behalf you won’t owe us anything. You don’t pay unless we win — it’s that simple! If you do win, our fee will be taken out of your recovery as a percentage. Learn more about contingency fees.
