I was asked a question about personal injury.
0:13 Personal Injury
Personal injury refers usually to traumatic injuries. In the case of motorcycle accidents, trucking accidents, automobile accidents, these of course are personal injuries. Those type injuries occurring in a work environment may result in a workers compensation claim, which is usually governed very strictly by statute.
But if you are a victim of an automobile accident, a fall, an injury occurring on a motorcycle, or a truck, it’s not your fault and you’re unable to work and maybe you’re suffering significant pain. Maybe you require significant health care to actually get back to work and get back to where you were before the traumatic event.
0:57 If You Are A Victim
It’s very important that you seek out qualified, knowledgeable, and aggressive counsel. I cannot think of any better combination than an attorney who is a physician to help you evaluate a serious injury. I respect attorneys. I know many great attorneys who have significant working knowledge of healthcare, and that’s not to say that to manage a personal injury case you have to have an MD. But you do have to have a knowledge base.
1:27 Seek An Experienced Personal Injury Lawyer and Attorney
I think the difference is an attorney has to glean that knowledge through practice. If you’re an attorney who’s been to medical school, you’ve been extensively educated in trauma, trauma management, the healthcare that goes along and is necessary as a result of serious injury. Again, seek out the most knowledgeable, the most experienced people that you can because it does make a difference in your recovery.
And by that I don’t just mean financial recovery. I mean you’re getting your health back and your life back. You being able to get up, move around appropriately, use your hands, walk, move from place to place, climb ladders, go down steps and bend. You want to get back to full steam as quickly as possible. By the same token, you want your injuries properly valuated, and particularly, if there’s any permanency and if you’re in any way disabled through this type of trauma, please consider calling the physician attorneys at LawMD.
