Suppose you are in a restaurant and enjoying your meal. Suddenly, you just stood up to leave and bump into a chair or a table and you get injured. Well, in this case you are responsible for the damage. But, if it happens because of someone else, and the damage is so much, you can sue him for the damages. Sadly, people don’t do this as they don’t know about the possibility of getting the compensation they deserve. But, they must about some easy things before thinking about the danger of filing a claim.
Different types of Claims for Personal Injury
Personal Injury Claim does not apply to all types of injuries. For example, if a person gets injured on work and he gets a minor burns or scars that cannot affect his ability to work. In this case, the person cannot file for personal injury claim.
In case of public injury, if the cut or bruise needs no medical treatment, it seems unimportant for public injury claim.
Things to Keep In Mind before a Personal Injury Claim
Before placing a Personal Injury Claim, you must know about another person’s negligence contribution in your injury. It’s not only about the physical injury, but it also includes the emotional and mental injury as well.
If an injury needs medical attention or the other person is responsible for the injury, you can file a personal injury claim against him. Always remember, a wise person wouldn’t do any careless things. He will not break any rules or will not act negligently.
Rules For Personal Injury Claim In Florida
In 1973, Florida joined 13 states who have adopted the theory of pure comparative negligence. According to this rule, a victim is allowed to recover damages, even if he is 99% respo0nsible, he will get the 1% of the damage from the negligent party.
Many critics believe that it doesn’t make sense. It allows a person to recover for an accident for which he is responsible. Also, more than one person is responsible for the damage.
