There are numerous case types attorneys can assist with, but one of the most common practice areas related to injury are car accident and personal injury cases. These include things like cases for car crashes in St Petersburg FL and other accident and injury cases. A personal injury attorney can work with many different types of cases:
Auto Accidents- when someone is injured in an auto accident, the biggest concern for the attorney is the case to determine who is at fault and who therefore is most responsible for the care and treatment of anyone injured and the replacement of damaged property involved in the accident.
Medical Malpractice- when medical professionals make a mistake, there is the chance that any resulting injuries was caused by negligence or neglect on the part of the medical team. In this case, a malpractice case can be filed against the doctor, surgeon, or medical professional by the patient.
Product Liability- at times a larger corporation or a manufacturer can be sued when an injury results from a product they made or sold. If they knew the item was dangerous or hazardous and did nothing to limit the risk for injury they could be sued in a product liability case.
Defective Medicine- there are also cases where someone has been injured because of the side effects of medication that was either not discolored, not fully investigated, or that was willfully ignored. Pills, surgical devices, and other medical treatments can fall into this category.
General Negligence- a general umbrella category for personal injury cases is known as general negligence- with these cases, the defendant is accused of causing injury to the plaintiff due to willfully ignoring warnings, purposefully deceiving others, and failing to perform their duty.
