After getting injured in a car wreck or other incident due to someone else’s negligence, you’ll need to file a claim with the other driver’s insurance company in order to be reimbursed for your medical expenses, lost wages, and subsequent pain and suffering. The true cost of your injury, when you add everything up, may be more than you think.
When you’re injured due to someone else’s mistake, sometimes with all of the pain and stress you may do things that work against your own best interest.
Personal injury cases can be pretty complex, and some of the words used when discussing a case may be unfamiliar or confusing. You may recognize some from watching TV shows or movies, like plaintiff and defendant, but you may not understand how they apply to your specific case.
