Injuries Worth Suing Over

If you’ve been injured, you may be able to take legal action and get compensated for your misfortune. The injury might have occurred because of another person’s negligence or ill intentions. If you sustained one of these types of injuries, you should consider filing a lawsuit to make up for your losses.

Medical Malpractice

When you visit a doctor’s office or hospital for medical care, you shouldn’t have to worry about sustaining an injury that puts you in an even worse position. If you get injured while having a diagnostic test, surgery, or some other health care treatment, you’ll likely have grounds to file a lawsuit if you can prove negligence on the provider’s part. You may also be able to sue if you sustained harm from any prescription medications.

Dog Bite

Whether you’re in someone else’s home or attacked by a dog while you’re out walking, you can hold a dog owner legally responsible if you get bitten by their dog or harmed by the animal in some other way. Dog owners are responsible for controlling their dogs and making sure that any aggressive animals are restrained properly so that they don’t harm people. A personal injury lawyer can review your claim and represent you in court if you choose to file a lawsuit against the dog’s owner.

On-the-job Injury

No matter what industry you work in, you could still get hurt on the job. A serious injury on the job could render you unable to work temporarily or even permanently and may also cause you to spend a lot of money on medical bills and rehabilitative care. If your employer was at fault for the accident and doesn’t offer you workers’ compensation payments to cover your losses, you shouldn’t hesitate to take legal action to try to get the money that you deserve.

Auto Accident

In most cases, your insurance company or the insurance provider for the other driver will cover any injuries or vehicle damages you sustained if the accident wasn’t your fault. However, you may need to sue if the insurance company refuses to pay even though you should be legally entitled to compensation. You might also need legal support if the insurance company is taking an unacceptably long time to process and approve your claim.

An injury can already create enough pain and suffering, and you shouldn’t have to endure the agony of not getting the payment that you’re entitled to receive to cover your losses. With help from a legal representative, you’ll stand a better chance of making the responsible party compensate you for your injury.

About This Blog

The title of this blog reflects my attitude toward those government agencies and insurance companies that routinely mistreat injured or disabled people. As a Dallas, Texas lawyer, I've spent more than 45 years trying to help those poor folk, and I have been frustrated daily by the actions of the people on the other side of their claims. (Sorry if I offended you...)
