Rhode Island Personal Injury Lawyer Collects Damages For Medical Care

By Mark Marabut


For someone who is injured and cannot work, there is not only pain and suffering, but insufficient income. Psychological as well as physical harm should be adequately compensated. The help of a Rhode Island personal injury lawyer is required to wade through the legally required process.

Harm may have been caused by an irresponsible dog owner allowing his pet to run free, or a store owner who allowed grease to remain on the floor in a public area causing a customer to fall and break a leg. Malpractice incidents caused by medical or dental carelessness are not excluded from the list.

Any incident that hurts you, either intentionally or accidentally is possibly litigious. Consulting an attorney may be free of charge. This allows him to decide whether to accept the case. Upon acceptance, it is often handled on a contingency basis.

Put simply, if your attorney does not collect money for you, you will not owe a fee to him. For this reason, an attorney will usually only accept cases that can be won. You will be advised not to pursue the matter if the lawyer does not think you can win.

The attorney then files court documents, investigates every detail of the incident and follows the dictates of Rhode Island law. In the preponderance of all cases, the two parties will settle out of court. This saves a considerable amount of time and effort.

Suing a friend or relative may sound unkind. However, it is most often their automobile or homeowner policy that pays for the damages. If you are invited to a social gathering at their home, it is their responsibility to maintain safe conditions while you are there.

When another driver runs into your car, it is his insurance company that must pay for damages. Each case is unique and the attorney will examine all details to bring it to a fair conclusion. Large and small factors will help to collect a fair sum on behalf of the client.
