If you’re in the process of filing a personal injury claim, you may encounter terminology or language that you may have not heard before. If you have a compassionate attorney on your side, you likely won’t need to know every single word used in court since most things will be explained to you, but it’s a good idea to have a solid understanding of what’s being said regardless to feel more comfortable in the courtroom and confident when discussing your case.

An accident can happen at any time to anybody. Whether it be a car accident, a slip and fall, or an accident at work, accidents can cause serious injuries that leave the victim with pain that persists for a long time. If you experience chronic pain from an injury that was caused by someone else’s negligence, you deserve compensation for your suffering.
