The Basics of Personal Injury Law

You face the risk of personal injury everyday. When you are working, shopping, driving or even walking. If you suffer physical harm through the negligence of a person, group or company, you may consider taking legal action against the party that was responsible for your injury. However, you will need the services of an attorney to ensure that you are treated fairly, and that the compensation adequately covers your damages. The Neri Law Group offers this type of legal assistance.

Taking Legal Action
A personal injury is also known as a tort, which is resolved in the civil court system. In such cases, the victim, or plaintiff, seeks compensation directly from the responsible party, or defendant. However, there are many elements of a personal injury case that can be confusing to those without a legal background. Bradenton Florida personal injury lawyers will provide the advice that you need throughout the legal process.

Seeking Monetary Damages
