Filing an Injury Claim: What You Need to Know Before Suing
As explained by AllLaw in their article “When to Sue for an Injury,” pursuing a personal injury claim can mean filing a lawsuit in court or submitting an insurance claim against the at-fault party. Both avenues are designed to recover compensation for damages like medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering after an accident.
In an injury case, the person making the claim must prove two main elements: that the other party was at fault (typically through negligence) and that real damages occurred. Meeting the burden of proof often involves providing substantial evidence such as police reports, medical records, witness statements, and expert testimony. Even though most personal injury claims are resolved through settlement, understanding what would be needed to win at trial is crucial when assessing the strength of a case.
