If you have been injured due to someone else’s negligence, the journey to recovery can be long and difficult. At Maginnis Howard, we understand the physical, emotional, and financial impact an accident can have on your life. Our devoted team of nationally renowned Charlotte personal injury attorneys is committed to supporting you through every stage of the legal process with compassion and understanding.
A personal injury case typically begins when an individual suffers harm due to the negligence or intentional actions of another party. The first step is to seek medical attention to document the injuries and ensure proper treatment. Once stabilized, the injured party should consult with a personal injury attorney to evaluate the case. An attorney will gather evidence, such as medical records, witness statements, and accident reports, to build a strong case. The next phase involves filing a claim with the at-fault party’s insurance company or initiating a lawsuit if a fair settlement cannot be reached. Throughout the process, the goal is to prove liability and demonstrate the extent of damages, which may include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related costs. The case may be resolved through negotiation, mediation, or trial, depending on the circumstances and the willingness of both parties to reach an agreement.
Obtaining a skilled personal injury lawyer can mean all the difference in recovering a fair settlement for you from the defendant or their insurance company.
