When a person is injured by the fault of another, the person doing the wrong is negligent. Every person owes every other person the duty to be careful not to injure another. The negligence can happen just about anywhere, a car accident, a fall in the store, or the pharmacy can put the wrong medication in your prescription bottle. When you are injured due to the fault of another, you are immediately exposed to serious consequences that affect your health and your finances. Your first concern should always be to get the medical attention you need. But it does not take long for steep medical bills and limited income (from being unable to work) to catch up with you.
You have the right to be fully compensated for your injuries. This includes all medical costs you incur, any income that you lose, as well as a sum for the non-economic damages (pain, suffering, inconvenience, limitation, and deformity) caused by the injury. All of these losses can be past, present, and future losses.
