What is Personal Injury Law?
For some people, the term “personal injury” conjures images of ambulance chasers and billboard attorneys flitting from crash to crash to make quick cash. But personal injury law encompasses more than vehicle accidents and neck braces – in fact, personal injury cases are a type of civil lawsuit that includes a variety of complaints, such as:
- Workplace accidents, seeking relief from negligent employers that cause harm or injury to workers.
- Wrongful death, including by automobile accident, medical malpractice, nursing home abuse, airplane crashes, and other causes.
- Premises liability, in cases such as a slip and fall at a commercial property or dangerous conditions on any type of property.
- Product liability, in which defective devices, vehicles, children’s toys, or other consumer products cause harm or damages.
- Malpractice in the medical or legal field that caused physical and/or financial damages to occur.
- Motor vehicle, aviation, or boating crashes that cause personal injury or financial damages.
- Other personal injury cases, such as animal attacks; birth, brain, and spinal cord defects or damage; nursing home or child abuse and neglect; and other suits.
Statute of Limitations
You should seek legal advice as soon as you become aware of a personal injury. In Arkansas, you have three years from the time of an accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. If the condition or severity of the injury does not become apparent or if your injury does not appear until a later date, courts will sometimes allow you to file a personal injury lawsuit up to three years from the discovery of your injury. Even if you’re not sure whether you need or want to file a lawsuit to recover damages for your personal injury, talk to an attorney as soon as possible to make sure time doesn’t run out on justice.
What Happens in a Personal Injury Lawsuit?
While you can file personal injury lawsuits yourself, the first step to a successful judgment or settlement in your favor should be to consult an experienced personal injury attorney Arkansas has licensed to practice law. Once your suit is filed, the judge presiding over your case will issue a summons to begin pretrial processes like discovery and – if required by law, agreement, or the judge herself – mediation and/or settlement conferences.
During this phase, your opponent will likely try and get you to settle outside of court and drop the case. Bobby Digby will fight for you to make sure no one is able to bully you into accepting less than fair and just compensation for your personal injury. If no agreeable settlement can be reached, your case will go to trial in a court of law.
After your case is tried and a judge’s decision is handed down, either party can appeal the ruling. Bobby won’t leave you hanging – he will advocate for you from start to finish and bottom to top.
