Personal injury refers to physical or psychological damages inflicted on a person as a result of an accident, external event, or medical negligence. Personal injuries can occur in various situations, including traffic accidents, workplace accidents, accidents outside the home, or medical events where professional negligence caused harm to the patient.Types of Personal Injury
Physical Injuries
Physical injuries are bodily harms caused by an accident or an unforeseen event. They may include fractures, damage to the nervous system, lung injuries, internal injuries, and more. These injuries can result in prolonged pain, temporary or permanent disability, and high medical expenses for rehabilitation.Economic Loss
Economic loss refers to the financial loss incurred by the injured party due to the physical damage. This can include lost income due to an inability to work, medical expenses not covered by insurance, rehabilitation costs, and other expenses related to injury treatment.Mental Injury
Mental injury is psychological harm suffered by the injured party as a result of the event. This can include depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and a diminished quality of life. Mental injury can affect daily life, relationships, and overall functioning of the injured party.The Legal Process in Personal Injury Claims
Initial Consultation
The first step in the process is an initial legal consultation. During this meeting, Attorney Olga Averbuch will assess your legal situation and determine if there is a basis for a claim. The consultation enables you to understand your rights and the options available to you.Collecting Evidence
After deciding to proceed with a claim, the next step is collecting evidence. This includes gathering medical documents, police reports, accident photos, witness testimonies, and any other material that supports your claim.Managing the Claim
At this stage, the attorneys will prepare all the necessary legal documents, submit the claim to the court, and manage the legal proceedings. This includes filing claims, responding to the opposing party’s allegations, and presenting the case in court.Negotiation and Settlement
Most claims are settled after negotiation leading to a settlement with the opposing party or insurance companies. During the process, Attorney Olga Averbuch will negotiate to achieve the best possible compensation for you.Court and Verdict
In the event that a settlement is not possible, the case will be brought before a court. The attorneys will represent you during legal hearings and ensure that your rights are protected.
