What Is a Personal Injury?

We hear the phrase "personal injury" often, but what does it really mean? Simply put, a personal injury or "tort" is a private or civil wrong for which the court will provide a remedy in the form of an action for money damages. In other words, if you are wrongfully injured (for example, through the negligent actions of another person), you may be entitled to recover financial compensation for your damages.

Damages in personal injury claims can be economic or non-economic, and they may include any of the following and more:

• Cost of medical treatment (current and future)
• Lost income and/or wages
• Loss of earning capacity (future income)
• Physical pain and suffering
• Emotional distress/trauma
• Loss of enjoyment

The Illinois personal injury lawyers at Woodruff Johnson & Evans Law Offices have experience in all types of personal injury cases, as well as workers' compensation claims.
