Our experienced team can help you with personal injury or Business Law Issues.
A serious injury can stay with you for the rest of your life. Whether you slipped in the grocery store, went through a traumatic car accident, or needed an extra and unnecessary surgery because of medical malpractice, injuries can affect your relationships, financial security, and ability to work. Some injuries are the result of an accident or something out of anyone’s control, such as the weather. Many more injuries are directly related to the negligence or careless actions of another person. If someone else’s recklessness caused your injuries, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.
At Russo Law Firm, we know how devastating an injury can be, and we want to help you hold responsible parties accountable for their actions. To do so, we must prove the person who caused your injuries was negligent. In the court of law, negligence means a person acted carelessly in a way that caused the accident and was not acting how a reasonable person would act in the same situation. Negligence can take many forms, from distracted driving to marketing a defective product. All cases of negligence fall under personal injury if someone was injured because of the negligent actions. Our Tucson personal injury attorneys have the experience to help you fight for compensation when negligent actions cause you serious harm.
There are countless ways that one person can injure another. If your injury was preventable, and someone else failed to act with necessary caution, you should pursue compensation. A qualified personal injury lawyer could be able to bring justice to your case and obtain the money you need to move past your accident. At Russo Law Firm, these are the personal injury areas we see the most frequently:
Keep in mind that many people sustain injuries from events that are not listed here, so this list is by no means complete. The most important part of your case in legal terms is that we are able to prove that another party was acting negligently, resulting in your injury.
When you sustain a serious injury, it is easy to feel alienated and alone because of your situation. In fact, thousands of people across Arizona are hurt by the recklessness of another person. Here are some of the statistics related to the most common personal injury areas, car accidents and medical malpractice.
Despite the potential dangers of traveling in cars, personal vehicles are still the most popular way to get around in the country. Between commuting, running errands, and dropping off your kids, accidents are bound to happen. Even so, sometimes these accidents are wholly preventable and caused by a reckless driver. These were some of the most important numbers put out by the Arizona Department of Transportation for 2016:
With the prevalence of vehicle accidents, there is no shortage of people being needlessly hurt or killed, which is truly a shame.
We quite literally trust our doctors with our lives. When medical practitioners of any kind betray that trust by acting negligently or carelessly, they should be held accountable for their actions. Medical malpractice injuries can lead to lifelong health issues, but the victims of negligence should not have to pay for the future treatments they need. According to the National Practitioner Data Bank, the medical malpractice facts for Arizona in 2016 were as follows:
