Personal Injury

A personal injury law, specifically called a "tort" law is intended for people who have been harmed due to the negligent or wrongful actions of others. Whether the wrongful actions were intentional or not, personal injury victims may be able to seek compensation with the help of a Florida personal injury lawyer. Compensation can be recovered for pain and suffering, loss of earnings due to the injury, and reasonable medical expenses. Damages can include present and future expected losses.
