The following are some of the most common types of personal injury claims.
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Motor vehicle accident prevention has been a public priority in recent years but the number of injuries and deaths as a result of these accidents continue to occur in staggering numbers each year. Every year approximately 2 million people are injured and 32,000 die as a result of motor vehicle crashes. Motor vehicle accidents make up a large majority of personal injury claims. If you are injured in a crash the first thing you should do is seek proper medical attention. As soon as you are properly treated you should find an experienced Chicago personal injury lawyer to review your case. The Law Office of Scott D. DeSalvo is a team of personal injury attorneys who will help you fight for your case.
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice claims are actually far more common than many people think. Medical malpractice occurs when a medical professional deviates from standards of care, which results in the injury, or harm of the patient in question. These kinds of cases are extremely difficult and complicated to prove. Victims and their families find themselves up against an institution like a hospital, which usually has far more resources at their disposal. This is why it is so important to find a Chicago personal injury lawyer who is experienced in medical malpractice claims.
