What Compensation Could I Be Entitled to in a Personal Injury Case?

An Olive Branch personal injury claim can help you recover much-needed financial compensation for the injury-induced losses you incur as a result of others’ negligence or recklessness. Mama Justice and her experienced team will pursue the financial recovery you deserve for your:

  • Past, ongoing, and anticipated future medical expenses
  • Costs associated with long-term disability care
  • Lost income, including lost future earnings due to disability
  • Physical pain and emotional anguish
  • Reduced enjoyment and quality of life due to injuries

Mama Justice can also help you seek compensation if your family lost a loved one due to someone else’s wrongful acts. Although no amount of money can make up for a loved one’s death, recovering compensation can provide your family with some measure of justice and help relieve the financial burden of a loved one’s passing. In a wrongful death claim, we can help you seek financial recovery for:

  • Medical expenses for treating your loved one’s final injury or illness
  • Your loved one’s conscious pain and suffering prior to death
  • Funeral and burial expenses
  • Loss of your loved one’s society and companionship
  • The value of lost income and benefits your loved one would have received

Can I Still Get Compensation If I Was Partly to Blame for My Injuries?

You might wonder if you can still pursue personal injury compensation when you’ve gotten hurt in an accident you may have partially caused. Fortunately, Mississippi follows the doctrine of pure comparative negligence for accident claims. Under this rule, an injured party who’s partially at fault for their injuries can still seek compensation regardless of the share of fault they bear for the accident. In fact, an injured party can recover some compensation even if they bear 99 percent of the fault for the accident.

At the same time, under the comparative negligence system, any responsibility you bear for causing your injuries can affect your compensation, which will be reduced based on your percentage of fault. For example, suppose a plaintiff incurs $50,000 in losses due to their injuries but bears 30 percent responsibility for the accident. In that case, they may have their financial recovery reduced by $15,000 to reflect their share of the fault, although they will still recover $35,000.

Because the comparative negligence rule can affect your financial recovery in a personal injury case, contact Mama Justice as soon as possible. Our lawyers can protect your right to compensation if the other party or insurance company tries to shift some of the blame for the accident to you.

How Long Does a Typical Personal Injury Case Last?

Unfortunately, no one can predict how long your personal injury case might last. Some personal injury claims settle in a few weeks or months, while others take a few years to reach trial. Various factors influence the duration and timeline of your personal injury claim, such as:

  • The type and severity of your injuries
  • The time spent on your medical treatment and rehabilitation
  • Whether your injuries caused prolonged or permanent disabilities
  • The amount of time you miss from work due to your injuries or disabilities
  • The type of accident that caused your injuries
  • The amount and complexity of evidence in your case
  • The number of potentially liable parties involved in your case
  • The number of other people injured in the same accident that hurt you
  • Whether you were partly responsible for causing the accident
  • The available insurance coverage or other financial resources liable parties may have to compensate you
  • The duration of the insurance company’s investigation and processing of your claim
  • Whether the insurance company denies your claim or rejects your settlement offers
  • Whether you file a lawsuit to pursue compensation in court
  • The schedule imposed on your case by the trial court presiding over your lawsuit

At Mama Justice, we will work hard to get you the maximum compensation you deserve as efficiently as possible and fight as long as needed to ensure you receive full value for your claim. Our firm will also keep you updated on the status of your claim so you never feel in the dark about the progress of your case.
