Personal
Injury Lawyer Houston
When someone or something causes an injury to
another person or thing, the legal profession calls such an act a
"tort." A tort is committed when one person is harmed because of
the wrongful act of another. The purpose of tort law is to assign
responsibility to the individual, group or company responsible
for causing such harm. The term "personal injury" encompasses a
wide variety of circumstances ranging from a stubbed toe, to an
amputated limb, to death, and everything and anything in between.
Personal injury
attorneys and lawyers typically represent clients (plaintiffs)
who have been injured either financially or physically due to the
fault of another. A personal injury lawyer is usually experienced
in a wide variety of personal injury topics, ranging from
automobile accidents and medical malpractice to drug litigation
and defective products. Personal injury attorneys often work on a
contingent basis, acquiring no fees unless a recovery is made in
a case.
