There
are different types of areas that fall in the category of personal
injury law. Personal injury means covering those injuries or
accidents that effect adversely, not even, physically (i.e. on the
body or health) but also psychologically (i.e. mental or emotional
state). The motive of personal injury law firms is to provide
compensation to the victim by the accused party.
Different
Types of Settlements
- Formal Lawsuits:- In formal personal injury case, a private individual (the "plaintiff") files a civil "complaint" against any other person, corporation, business, or government agency (the "defendant"), charging that they acted in an irresponsible or careless manner while dealing with an accident or injury that caused harm. This kind of action is referred as "filing a lawsuit.
- Informal Settlement:- With the help of mediation process, most of the clashes over fault for an accident or injury are solved. This kind of mediation process generally follows the formula of informal early settlement between the affected and the accused party. The matter can be settled by the payment of an agreeable amount of money rather than approaching the court.
