What Constitutes a Central Kentucky Personal Injury?

As central Kentucky personal injury attorneys, we have learned that many injured accident victims hesitate to file legal claims because they are not sure if their injuries or situations constitute a personal injury. In short, a personal injury occurs when an individual has suffered harm as the result of an injury or accident, most often due to the negligence of another person, company, or party. Whether on the roadway, at work, in public places, or at certain places of residence, accidents that occur due to the failure to exercise a standard duty of care may fall under the category of personal injury, if the accident victim becomes injured. Although this is not a comprehensive list, some of the more common Lexington personal injuries are the following:

  • work-related injuries (including lacerations, injured backs, broken bones, lost limbs, or injuries that occur over time such as carpal tunnel syndrome; injuries can occur at construction sites or even in an office setting)
  • injuries caused by defective products
  • medical malpractice injuries and instances of nursing home neglect or abuse.

Whether your personal injury results in an auto accident claim, a workers' compensation (workers' comp.) claim, or medical malpractice claim, among others, you are entitled to recover financial compensation for your medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering (depending on the case). Although no monetary amount can truly "compensate" for serious injuries, help obtaining financial coverage of medical bills and other expenses enables the accident victim to focus on healing rather than how to make payments.
