The term "personal injuries" refers to a broad area of law that allows you to obtain legal relief for all losses arising from an accident or other incident in which the negligence or intentional conduct of another person caused an injury.
A personal injury case is a civil action, which means that when it is determined that another person or company is legally responsible for causing your injuries, the remedy is presented in the form of damages: money that the responsible party pays to the injured party.

Below we will see in a summarized way, some common types of personal injury claims:
- Motor vehicle accidents: motor vehicle accidents are one of the leading causes of personal injury claims. When an accident occurs, it is usually because someone is not following traffic rules or driving with the care they should. These include accidents involving cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians.
- Slips and falls: can occur due to dangerous conditions present on another person's or company's property. Slippery floors, cracks in the sidewalk, and unsafe stairs can cause slips and falls. The defendant did not provide the necessary maintenance to a dangerous condition on their property, or did not take reasonable measures to prevent the accident. In other words, the injured person must prove that the slip and fall were caused by the negligence of the property owner. In this situation, the victim of the accident can request compensation from the property owner.
- Medical negligence: doctors and other health professionals are not perfect, and the law does not expect them to be. But when a doctor or other health professional does not provide competent and specialized care, a patient may be injured. When a patient is injured due to a lack of care that falls below accepted medical standards, there may be a viable medical negligence claim.
- Dog bites: in most cases, dog owners are financially responsible for bites and other injuries caused by the dog. In some states, a dog owner is subject to "strict liability," in other states the plaintiff is given the opportunity to present evidence that the animal was provoked.
- Defective products: a product or food with some defect that endangers your well-being can generate a claim against the manufacturer if you are injured by its use or consumption.
- Multiple traumatic injuries: including those caused by falls or work accidents or on-site.
- Heat burns: including burns that occur from contact with hot materials or foods.
- Chemical burns: including burns from acidic solvents, steam, etc.
- Amputated limbs: including fingers and toes, and hands, arms, and legs.
- Carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive strain injuries, including typing and other computer work.
