Personal Injury Lawyers Fight For Your Rights in the Oakland Area

Personal injuries happen every day, in all kinds of accidents. Not just on the roads, but in homes, in stores and other places of business, walking the sidewalks of a town or city, at playgrounds – pretty much anywhere people go, accidents resulting in personal injuries happen. Sometimes, these are purely accidents, and no one is at fault. However, some injuries occur because another party was negligent, and that party should be held liable for all of an injury victim’s losses. 

When you suffer an injury in an accident that is not your fault, you need to talk to an Oakland personal injury lawyer. You might have the right to compensation for your losses, and the Law Office of Scott Righthand can help.

Many Kinds of Accidents Can Result in Personal Injury Claims

If you can think of a way an accident resulting in personal injury can happen, it probably has. However, most personal injury claims stem from one of the following:

Given the many kinds of personal injury cases, you want to ensure that your attorney has specific experience handling cases with similar circumstances to yours. This means they will have the knowledge to address the specific legal issues and questions that might arise in your case. 

In general, the basic standard for personal injury claims is negligence, meaning that some other person owed you (or the public generally) a duty of care, breached that duty by creating or failing to correct a dangerous situation and that the breach was responsible for your injury. Proving a negligence case could require knowledge of engineering, medicine, building codes, and standards, or any other number of technical fields. You might not know where to find people with that expertise, but your attorney should.

The Personal Injury Claim Process

Injuries can result in many types of losses, including:

  • Medical bills for past and future treatment
  • Past and future lost income
  • Pain and suffering

You might have a feeling that you deserve compensation for your losses, but you might not know where to begin to obtain the payment you deserve. This is where an experienced personal injury lawyer comes in. 

Our attorneys know how to identify liable parties and file the necessary insurance claims, and there can often be multiple claims needed. They can then handle the entire claim process, working to prove your claim and negotiate for the full amount you deserve. You should focus on your recovery from your injuries, and let us focus on your financial recovery.
