Personal injury

Personal injury is when you get hurt because of someone else's carelessness or bad decision. It could be something like if someone was driving too fast and you got hit by their car, or if someone was walking too close and accidentally bumped into you. Personal injury can also be things like medical malpractice, wrongful death and even emotional trauma. When a person is hurt in this way, they usually have the right to seek compensation from the person who caused them the injury. This money is meant to help the person pay for medical bills and loss of income if they miss work because of their injury.
