Let's make this clear right away - Personal injury is generally an injury to a person's body or mind. This injury may be grounds for a lawsuit if someone besides the victim is responsible for the injury.

In a negligence case action, personal injury is described as any harm caused to a person, such as a broken bone, a cut, or a bruise. Any type of bodily injury as a result of an attack, negligence, and/or accident can be categorized as personal injury, and you can file a lawsuit to hold those responsible for your personal injury.

On average, there are 11,200 disabling accidental injuries every hour during the year.

The most common accident at construction sites is falls.

Each year, nearly 11,000 Americans suffer a traumatic spinal cord injury, and many of them suffer permanent disabilities.

But remember, personal injury means to your person. Let's consider this point, if you're walking down the street and a bucket of paint falls on your head - Personal injury allows for action to the harm caused to your head, not for the replacement of your damaged clothes.

Personal Injury can also mean any injury resulting from libel, slander, malicious prosecution, or false arrest, any bodily injury, sickness, disease, or death sustained by any person and caused by an occurrence for which the state may be held liable.
