What Is Personal Injury?

A personal injury case is a civil action, which means that if you have suffered injury to yourself and a person or a business is found legally responsible for causing your injuries, the remedy comes in the form of damages. Damages are money awarded to you and paid by the liable party (the defendant) to the injured party (the plaintiff).

Settlements and court awards in personal injury cases vary and many factors can affect these numbers, which is why contacting a personal injury law firm in Chicago is so important.

The four elements of a personal injury case are duty, breach of duty, causation, and injury. In order to claim damages, a defendant must be a breach in the duty towards the plaintiff, which results in an injury. There are three main types of torts, which are negligence, strict liability (product liability), and intentional torts.
