How is a personal injury case different from an accident?

Separating personal injuries cases from injuries caused in accidents can be difficult. In a personal injury case, another party’s negligence harms you. This may be relatively direct, such as a drunk driver crashing into you, or indirect, like someone building a staircase that later collapses and injures you.

On the other hand, a simple accident can occur if you happen to hit your own thumb with a hammer.

When you suffer an injury because of someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to financial compensation to help you recover. Contact a Danville personal injury attorney from the trusted firm of Spiros Law, P.C. at 217-443-4343 today to discuss your case.
