The party responsible for causing your accident will be charged with criminal offenses and tried in criminal court for his or her crimes, but you as a personal injury victim have the right to file a claim in civil court regarding your injuries.

Often insurance companies offer settlements as quickly as possible after your accident, so they do not have to factor in the total cost of your loss. If you were severely injured, you could face high medical bills, loss of wages from time taken off work, and expenses incurred due to traveling between your doctor’s office and home. For many people in your position, it becomes difficult to make ends meet. Remember, insurance companies are generally more concerned with making a profit than they are with ensuring you and your family receive a comparable settlement.
