Personal Injury Claims
Personal injury can occur in a number of ways in a number scenarios which will determine whether and to what extent there will be liability. The basic tenent of liability is Negligence, which is determed by whether someone failed to reach the standard for care placed on them by law in any given situation.
If you are injured in a road traffic accident the standard for all road users is to drive with due care and attention. If you drive below that standard and that failure causes an accident you may be liabile for injury loss and damages that follows. If you are injured on the job the standard is that employers must provide a reasonably safe system of work. If they fail to do so and their failure results in injury loss or damages the employer may be liable. If you are at a business etablishment the standard of care is that the operator of the business must protect you from unusual dangers on his property or ward you of it.
If the operater fails, and because of that failure you suffer injury loss or damages the operatore may be liable.
