About us
When one person causes bodily injury to another, the injured party’s claim is a Personal Injury claim. In essence, it is a complaint that someone violated the rules of society and caused them harm. The concepts of our modern personal injury law date back thousands of years, and are present in some form in almost every society throughout civilization.
The main purpose of personal injury law is to make an injured person whole. Where a person is wrongfully injured and must seek medical treatment, loses time from work, and endures pain, modern personal injury law attempts to right this by forcing the at-fault person to pay monetary damages. The money paid to the injured person should be the exact amount of her loss: the amount of the medical bills, the amount of the lost wages, the value of any property damages, and a monetary amount equivalent to the physical and emotional pain suffered. The purpose, both historically, and in modern law, is not to give a windfall to the injured person, but to set them back exactly as they were before the injury.
