What is a personal injury claim?

A personal injury claim is a legal case filed by an individual who has been injured or harmed due to the negligence or intentional actions of another party. These claims seek compensation for damages such as medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage.

How do I know if I have a valid personal injury claim?

To have a valid personal injury claim, you must demonstrate that another party's negligence or wrongful actions caused your injuries. This typically involves proving that the other party owed you a duty of care, breached that duty, and that breach resulted in your injuries.

What should I do immediately after being injured in an accident?

Seek medical attention for your injuries as soon as possible, even if they seem minor. Document the accident scene, gather contact information from any witnesses, and report the incident to the appropriate authorities or property owner. Refrain from discussing fault or accepting any settlement offers without call Wood & Carlton first. We are here to help you secure the most possible compensation the law says you deserve.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Mississippi?

In Mississippi, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is three years from the date of the injury or discovery of the injury. Failing to file a claim within this time frame can result in the loss of your right to seek compensation.
