Injury Litigation

The process of suing for injury is a legal procedure that allows you to recover compensation for your injuries and losses. Your injury attorney will build solid evidence for your case that includes eyewitness testimony, medical documentation, defendant statements and expert witness opinions.

Your lawyer will file your lawsuit. After the defendant has replied to the lawsuit, the case will move into the phase of fact-finding known as discovery.

The Complaint

Before a lawsuit is filed the person who has been injured (plaintiff), must conduct pre-lawsuit investigation. This involves reviewing police accident reports, making informal discovery and identifying at-fault parties.

Once the plaintiff has done this, they are able to submit a summons and a complaint. The complaint identifies the party who is being sued, and details the harm caused by the defendant's conduct or inaction. It usually includes a request to seek damages for the victim's injuries including medical bills as well as lost wages or income, as well as pain and other damages.

The defendant has 30 days to respond, also referred to as an answer. In this response, the defendant can acknowledge or deny the allegations made in the complaint. They may also make an appeal or add a third-party defendant the suit.

During the discovery phase the parties will exchange relevant information regarding their positions and the evidence. This usually includes depositions, written questions (called interrogatories), and requests for documents. This phase usually takes up the majority of the timeframe for an action. If there are any settlement opportunities the possibility of settlement will be discussed. In the event that there is no settlement the case will proceed to trial. During this time your lawyer will present your argument before a judge or a jury and the defendant will take on their defense.

The Discovery Phase

Discovery is a formal procedure that permits you and your legal team to exchange information with the other party and gather evidence.

Requests for admission are letters to the other party, asking them to accept certain facts. This could save time and money since attorneys do not need to prove the facts during trial. Depositions are live interviews of witnesses where your attorney can question them about the incident under oath, and have their answers recorded and transcribing by a court reporter.

Discovery may seem like an uncomfortable, lengthy and invasive process, but it is essential to collect the evidence required to be successful in your claim for compensation. During your free consultation, your attorney will be able to discuss the details of the discovery process. If you try to hide an injury that has already been aggravated due to a medical condition that was already present The information could be discovered during the process of discovery and your case could be thrown out.

The Negotiation Phase

A settlement that is negotiated is the main goal of many injuries. This process usually involves an exchange of back-and between your lawyer and that of the insurance company of the party responsible. This may include informal conversations/correspondence (by phone, in meetings, by email) where the parties trade offers and counter-offers. Your lawyer can help choose the appropriate number to ask for your settlement and assist in negotiations.

One of the biggest challenges in settlement of an injury claim is that the amount you are owed including medical expenses as well as lost income and future losses - can be a volatile factor. Your injuries could worsen over time. This could cause further loss or reduce the value of current losses. Your attorney will ensure that damages are calculated based on your current injuries and the prognosis of the future recovery.

Insurance companies typically attempt to limit the amount they pay by arguing about certain aspects of your claim. This could lead to a delay in settlement negotiations. However your lawyer can provide strategies to assist you in overcoming these obstacles and achieve the best outcome for your case. In certain cases negotiations to reach an agreement can take months or even years. Negotiations can take several months or even years, depending on a variety of factors.

The Trial Phase

Although the majority of injury cases are resolved by settlement negotiations outside of court, your attorney may decide to bring your case to trial if a satisfactory resolution cannot be reached. This is an expensive and time-consuming process that can be stressful. The jury will also have to decide if you should be compensated for your injuries, and If so, what amount. Your lawyer should thoroughly investigate your case to determine the circumstances of your injuries, the amount of damages, injuries, and costs.

Your lawyer will now call witnesses and experts and present physical evidence, like photographs documents, documents, and medical reports. This is the "case-in-chief" phase. The defense attorney will then call witnesses to testify and argue that the plaintiff shouldn't be awarded damages. The judge or jury then weighs the arguments and evidence of both sides.

The judge will explain to the jury the legal requirements that must be met in order to decide in the favor of plaintiffs or against defendants. This is known as jury instruction. Following that, each side will present their closing arguments. If the jury is unable reach a consensus on a verdict and the judge decides to declare a mistrial. If you're not satisfied with the results of your trial, there might be an appeal available.
