In order to understand the reason a person needs a lawyer to handle of claim involving a personal injury, it’s important to first understand what is meant by the term personal injury.
A personal injury is defined as any type of injury which results in wrongful death, permanent (severe) functional disability, or severe impairment. Personal injuries often involve the spine, the spinal cord, or the brain (including skull or spinal fractures), and result in a permanent injury that prevents the injured party from performing any type of gainful work.
In most cases, a personal injury can leave a person permanently disabled for the remainder of his or her life. These types of injuries can have many long-term effects on the victim and put an enormous amount of stress on the family due to the injured person’s need for constant supervision and assistance, combined with rehabilitation and a lifetime of related medical expenses. In many cases, a catastrophic injury is responsible for severe disruptions in the central nervous system which include spinal cord injuries or severe burns; these injuries can then affect other systems in the body.
There are many different circumstances that can lead to personal injuries such as automobile accidents, work accidents, etc. Some of the most common types of personal injuries include the following:
As one might imagine, a catastrophic injury can put a serious financial burden on the victim's family. These circumstances often lead to a lifetime of medical costs and rehabilitation expenses. Additionally, victims are often unable to return to work (or cannot work in the same capacity as before). If your injury was caused by another person's (or entity's) negligence, why should your family suffer the financial repercussions?
The purpose of filing a claim (or lawsuit) in cases involving personal injuries is to help the victim and their family recover compensation for the "damages" caused. Damages can include lost wages and medical bills, but with catastrophic personal injuries, your damages will likely reach far into the future. Through an attorney, you can also seek compensation for things such as reduced earning capacity, loss of consortium, pain and suffering, mental anguish, disfigurement, the cost of rehabilitative services and assistive devices, as well as any other estimated future medical expenses.
To have the best chance at a successful claim, you need an attorney who understands how to determine the extent of your damages and present compelling evidence (with the help of expert witnesses) to the court. You only get one shot at a personal injury lawsuit, and our Dallas attorneys understand that you simply cannot leave anything to chance.

Jeff helped me out in a lawsuit this past year. Really I just can’t say enough how thankful I am to have him there and looking out for my best interests. He is extremely detail oriented which is ever so important when it comes to the legal system. He has true compassion for the little guy and is not scared in the least to take on the worst of the worst bad guy or corporation. He is very smart and composed but inside he’s got the fight of a pitbull. Again, just wanted to say Thanks to Jeff and good luck to those on opposing counsel.
