(314) 500-HURTSometimes, when people find that they’ve been injured as the result of someone else’s accident, they aren’t sure of what
to do. They may think that they have no legal recourse, even if they weren’t at fault. They may also think that a personal injury lawyer won’t be able to take their case, depending upon the circumstances.
If you have had these assumptions, it may be time to change them. A personal injury attorney from
Burger Law can help you, regardless of the type of incident you have faced — auto accidents, workplace injuries, or medical problems
due to negligence under a doctor’s care.
What do personal injury lawyers do for people hurt in auto accidents?
Each year in the United States, more than 2.09 million people are injured in auto accidents, including everything from
head-on collisions with other passenger vehicles to semi truck accidents. That’s in addition to the 21,000 or more
drivers and passengers who are killed in automobile crashes, with 4,000 alone losing their lives in trucking accidents. No matter what type of
accident you’ve had, a personal injury lawyer will work with you to ensure that insurance companies pay
what they’re supposed to. They can also help you prove you were not at fault and help you win a settlement.
What do personal injury lawyers do for workers injured on the job?
If you were injured as the result of workplace safety issues, then you may be able to file a worker’s
compensation claim. Worker’s compensation helps victims of workplace accidents obtain medical care and get
on the path to recovery. When you file a claim, an employer has 30 days to answer it or else admit fault for the injury.
Yet if they are still unwilling to pay or have violated any labor laws, then you may need the help of an attorney.
What do personal injury lawyers do for medical malpractice victims?
Around 80% of medical malpractice cases
involve serious injury or death, yet only one in eight such incidents ever result in legal action. There’s no telling
exactly how many medical malpractice accidents occur in the United States given how under-reported they
are. However, if you were injured as the result of a doctor’s negligence, then you may be entitled to compensation. An
attorney can look over your case for you and guide you in this decision.
