With a population of more than 1.03 million people in San Jose, serious accidents that lead to catastrophic injury happen every day. Perhaps a dog bit you in Cambrian Park. Or maybe a business in Santa Clara didn’t properly warn it’s customers of safety hazards. Maybe a business in Berryessa refuses to accept responsibility for selling you a defective appliance.
Whatever the case, a San Jose personal injury attorney can help you fight for fair compensation due to the negligent acts of others.
A personal injury is a legal term for physical, mental, and emotional injuries. Personal injury refers to injuries resulting from the negligence or carelessness of another person or party.Â
When a person is injured due to another person’s negligence, they can sue for damages to cover their pain and suffering and for injury-related costs. The cost of medical care and lost time at work are two common costs for which victims may receive compensation.Â
Any injury you sustain due to someone else’s negligence or carelessness may be considered a personal injury. As such, you can file claims ranging from minor cuts to major spinal damage and anywhere in-between, depending on the conditions of your accident.
