Injured?….Let a jury determine what you are entitled to.

Personal injury law is also known as tort law. A “tort” is “a civil wrong or wrongful act, whether intentional or accidental, from which injury occurs to another. Torts include all negligence cases as well as intentional wrongs which result in harm.” Basically, all personal injuries fall into one of three categories:

1. Intentional torts – purposely inflicting injury.
2. Negligent torts – causing an accident that results in injury.
3. Strict liability torts – manufacturing, marketing or selling defective products that result in injury.

Attorney Michael Anderson Recently Appeared on KSL Channel 5 News

This is the recent news story that Attorney Michael Anderson appeared on to provide his legal opinion with Get Gephardt:

The most common grounds for a civil lawsuit involve negligence. These include motor vehicle accidents, motorcycle accidents, pedestrian accidents, swimming and diving accidents, boating accidents and premises liability (slip and fall) accidents. When an accident occurs due to negligence, the injured party may file a claim against the negligent party to recover all their damages. Damages generally include current and future medical expenses, property damage, pain and suffering, current and future loss of income, loss of enjoyment and in certain cases, punitive damages.

In order to prove negligence, you must support your claim with the following 3 facts:

1. Negligence – The other party was negligent.
2. Causation – Their negligence caused the accident.
3. Damages – You suffered damages as a result of the accident.

It is also vital that if you have been injured that a lawsuit is filed before the “statute of limitations” expires.  A statute of limitations may prevent you from filing for the damages that are due to you because you have waited too long.
