Personal Injury in Accident

(Not an actual client.)

 

What Are the Common Types of  Personal Injury Cases?

Personal injury claims can come from many types of personal injury incidents, the most common being motor vehicle accidents. According to the accident statistics from the Texas Department of Transportation, the state saw 18,880 victims of serious injury in traffic collisions in 2022.

While car accidents often cause personal injury, anyone can experience serious injuries in the workplace, the hospital, or even someone else’s home.

Fortunately, each personal injury lawyer at Simmons & Fletcher, P.C. is skilled in many practice areas related to personal injury.

Motor Vehicle Accidents

A motor vehicle accident claim may include cases involving car accidents, truck accidents, or motorcycle accidents. In any case, such a crash can cause severe injuries to the driver and passengers. Fort Worth car accidents and Fort Worth truck accidents happen more often than we’d like.

Similarly, motorcycle accidents happen frequently due to congestion and heavy traffic in the Fort Worth, TX area. If you’ve suffered an injury and your car, truck, or motorcycle accident occurred due to another party’s negligence, you may be entitled to financial compensation. Our experienced and dedicated personal injury lawyers will handle your case in Fort Worth and do their best to help you hold the responsible parties accountable.

Other types of auto accidents might include:

    • Pedestrian accidents;
    • Drunk driving accidents
    • And Bicycle accidents

Workplace Accidents

Work-related accidents happen every day and are another frequent cause of personal injury in Fort Worth, TX. These on-duty cases usually deal with:

  • Transportation incidents;
  • Machine malfunctions;
  • Or slips and falls in the workplace.

These personal injury cases can be especially tricky since they might involve filing a claim against your employer or company. A Fort Worth personal injury lawyer can help you navigate this situation with care and support, finding the most just outcome for you and your livelihood.

Premises Liability

  • Slip and falls;
  • And construction accidents.

For example, you may slip and fall in a grocery store or around a swimming pool. Or, perhaps a friend or family member was injured due to negligence at an amusement park or in an elevator. Whatever the case, the property owner where you were injured can be held accountable for your compensation. Property owners have a duty of care, which means they are required to provide a safe environment for invited visitors. If you’ve been injured because a property owner shirked that duty, a Fort Worth personal injury lawyer can fight for your case and protect your rights.

Product Liability

Product liability cases result from product defects and malfunctioning devices that lead to injury. These claims can include defective medical devices, like an EpiPen that fails to inject, or dangerous products marketed as safe, like toxic baby formulas. A product liability injury can feel especially unjust, as it often stems from someone else’s greed or sloppy work. An empathetic and experienced Fort Worth personal injury attorney can take on your case and fight for the justice you deserve.

What Injuries Are Common in Ft. Worth Personal Injury Cases?

Unexpected accidents can result in severe injuries and ongoing repercussions for their victims. Whatever injuries you have suffered, and whatever the severity, you have our most profound compassion and support. Many of the cases handled by a Fort Worth personal injury lawyer involve these types of injuries:

Among these damaging injuries, the most tragic cases result in wrongful death. Losing a loved one to an unexpected accident is an unimaginable situation, and we’re here to help you through it. We want to offer you a free consultation, where we will make sure you understand your rights, your personal injury case, and your next steps to receive compensation and justice. Let us help you find some light at the end of the tunnel ⎯ all you have to do is pick up a phone and dial (713) 932-0777.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

After experiencing a personal injury, you may be entitled to compensation. In this case, a personal injury claim can help recover compensation for the financial, physical, and emotional expenses that you’ve incurred during this ordeal. Depending on the circumstances, your personal injury damages may cover:

  • Medical expenses and medical treatment, including past and future medical bills;
  • Property damage;
  • Pain and suffering;
  • Mental anguish and emotional distress;
  • Loss of enjoyment and quality of life;
  • Lost wages and earning capacity;
  • Punitive damages brought against a negligent third party.

In the case of wrongful death or severe injury, you may also be entitled to loss of consortium. This compensation refers to the loss of companionship when one member of a relationship or family has been significantly hurt or has passed away. A loved one (often a family member or spouse) can claim loss of consortium to recover the emotional damages that have impacted their life. While these losses are immense, the claim can be difficult to prove.

That’s why a skilled Fort Worth personal injury lawyer is needed to fight for all types of compensation and recovered damages. We highly recommend that you hire a lawyer to handle your case and get the best legal representation possible.

What if I was partially at fault in my personal injury accident?

Firstly, go easy on yourself ⎯ we’re all human and make mistakes. You are still eligible for compensation if you were injured in a car accident, motorcycle accident, or another accident that was partially your fault. Your conduct such as speeding is considered a contributing factor, but speeding does not preclude recovery when the other driver was more negligent than you. An experienced personal injury lawyer in Fort Worth, TX will use their knowledge of Texas law to strengthen your claim. Specifically, skilled personal injury lawyers will use comparative negligence, which states you can recover compensation for personal injury unless 51% or more of the accident was your fault. To determine your comparative fault, the team at Simmons & Fletcher, P.C. can conduct an investigation into the accident, the defendant, and, in the case of an auto accident, any driver.
