Some brief answers to typical questions we receive from our clients.
Personal Injury
Following are answers to some frequently asked questions about personal injury cases. The answers are general, so please ask your attorney about the specifics of your case.
You are Entitled to Two Types of Compensation for Your Injuries. The law provides that if you are injured by someone else's negligence -- in an auto accident, for example -- you can receive special and general damages. Special damages reimburse you for your out-of-pocket expenses, such as medical bills and lost wages. General damages compensate you for such non-economic losses as pain and suffering and restrictions on your everyday activities. Of course, you have to prove the extent of your damages and prove that they were directly caused by the accident. More on Personal Injury

However, the Department or self-insured employer is allowed to submit you to periodic medical examinations with their chosen doctors to determine whether additional treatment is necessary. Not surprisingly, the Department’s doctors often disagree with workers' own doctors. Your attorney can help settle those disputes. More on Workers' Compensation
