What types of cases do personal injury lawyers handle? Could you explain the kinds of injuries which fall under the category of “personal injury” ?
A: The term “personal injury” has replaced the legal word known as “tort claims” in our common usage. A tort claim is based upon proving someone had a duty (such as a duty of reasonable care in driving a car) and they negligently (carelessly) breached that duty, causing another person injury or harm.
Some common personal injury claims are:
- wrongful death
- auto accidents
- truck collisions
- motorcycle accidents
- slip/trip/fall/unsafe premises
- medical malpractice
- injuries to minors and children
- dog bites
- scooter accidents
- burn injury

After my injury…communication with my attorney was very important to me. Jim and Judi, his paralegal, were always available to explain all the steps involved in my case and my choices. Jim fulfilled all of my expectations by giving me personal attention and doing everything he said he would. – Jonathan, Clearwater
