PERSONAL INJURY DEFENSE
Accidents happen everyday. As tragic as they may be, they often aren’t caused by negligence. Many people reeling after an injury or loss of a loved one immediately believe someone is at fault, but this just isn’t always the case. Personal injury cases can be frivolous, and businesses or individuals facing any personal injury claims need to partner with an experienced personal injury defense attorney to make sure you don’t end up paying unnecessarily for accidents.
MehaffyWeber provides sophisticated legal representation for individuals and businesses in personal injury matters. Whether you are faced with wrongful death or catastrophic injuries litigation, our attorneys have the decades of trial experience necessary to successfully resolve these claims.
The Complexities of Personal Injury Defense
Anytime a personal injury lawsuit is filed, plaintiffs must prove the defendants owed a duty of care to the injured which they did not fulfill. Many people mistakenly assume if an accident occurred on someone else’s property, it must be the property owner’s fault. However, this is far from the case. A duty of care is only applicable in certain situations. Even if a duty of care does exist, defendants may not be responsible for accidents caused by the plaintiffs themselves.
Many personal injury cases involve complicated medical, scientific, and technical concepts. This requires dedicated and knowledgeable attorneys who can go head to head with plaintiff’s expert witnesses to make sure jurors truly understand how events unfolded. These cases also may include invalid or overstated claims which may over-state damages, or inflate a medical prognosis and treatment.
