Personal Injury Overview
Tampa Personal Injury Lawyer
Personal injury is an area of law that deals with injuries, physical and psychological, that are caused by another's conduct. Most of these injuries are caused by negligence, which can be defined as carelessness or the failure to act with proper caution or provide proper care under the circumstances. The two other grounds for personal injury claims in Florida are intentional wrongdoing and strict liability.
When a person sustains any injury that has been caused because of another person or entity's conduct, this may give the victim grounds to file a lawsuit against the responsible party. This lawsuit would enable the victim to seek and potentially recover financial compensation for his or her injuries, both economic and non-economic in nature. In a Tampa personal injury claim, money may be awarded for lost earnings, medical expenses, emotional trauma, pain and suffering and possibly much more.
