Personal Injury Overview

Personal injuries include every variety of harm to a person’s body, emotions, or reputation, as opposed to injury to property rights.

There are three primary grounds for personal injury claims:

1. Negligence – The most common basis for personal injury claims. Liability arises when someone fails to use the level of care that a reasonably prudent person would under similar circumstances. Example: a hunter carelessly firing toward other people.
2. Strict Liability – Holds a defendant responsible for an action regardless of intent or mental state. Example: a defective product causing injury, even if the manufacturer did not act negligently.
3. Intentional Wrongs – Result from deliberate actions. Common intentional torts include battery, assault, false imprisonment, trespass, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
