What Types of Compensation Am I Entitled To?
The trauma that follows a disaster is often debilitating: depression, confusion, and anxiety are common symptoms that plague our clients. PTSD flashbacks that keep you up at night may need extensive - and expensive - therapy to treat. When you aren’t at fault, the physical, psychological and financial burdens of an injury can be unjustly heavy - you don’t have to shoulder them alone.
If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident, you may be entitled to compensation for pain and suffering, as well as any:
- Medical costs
- Lost wages
- Property damages
- Value of life damages
During our free consultation, we'll listen to your story, learn the details of your case and evaluate your options together.
What is Personal Injury Law?
Personal injury law deals with any physical wrongdoing to an individual. It covers a variety of situations, including defective product cases, auto accidents, nursing home abuse cases, and wrongful death.
A "personal injury lawyer" is a broad term for a trial lawyer who handles cases involving clients who have been harmed by the intentional, accidental, or negligent actions of others. Our Birmingham personal injury lawyers have extensive experience with different practice areas and are motivated to fight for clients who seek out Wettermark Keith to handle their case.
What Types of Cases Do Our Birmingham Personal Injury Attorneys Handle?
CAR ACCIDENTS
In the state of Alabama, someone is injured in a car accident every 11 minutes and 5 seconds. Wrecks are not uncommon in Birmingham, a bustling hub with some of the most dangerous roadways in the state. If you were injured while ridesharing, or by a distracted driver, a rear ending, or other accident, you may be entitled to more compensation than your insurance providers offer. Our firm has seen it all, and we want to help you recover from this traumatic and disruptive event.
TRUCK ACCIDENTS
Large or commercial vehicles, including 18-wheelers or tractor-trailers adhere to stringent safety regulations. When truck drivers flaunt these rules they put other drivers at significant risk.
BICYCLE ACCIDENTS
Birmingham has seen some tragic bicycle accidents profoundly affect our community in recent years. Whether you have experienced a personal injury or lost a loved one in a bicycle wreck, we can help you secure recovery and justice.
PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS
Despite having the right of way, pedestrians are frequently injured or killed by careless drivers. Just a second of inattention can result in years relearning to walk in physical therapy. If you or a loved one has been hit by a car, you can seek compensation for specific actions the driver failed to take.
HEAD INJURIES
A variety of circumstances - most commonly falls and auto wrecks - can cause head injuries. TBI, or traumatic brain injuries, can be partially or entirely debilitating, making it impossible for you to continue your career, family life, or hobbies. If you’ve suffered a head injury, call us. Let us help you seek justice and improve your quality of life.
CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENTS
Construction sites are rated as one of the most frequent settings of workplace injuries in Alabama and nationwide, with 20% of annual U.S. worker deaths occurring on construction sites. Frequent causes of construction injuries in Birmingham include falling, electrocution or being trapped by a piece of machinery. Get the workers’ compensation and insurance coverage you deserve with the help of our firm's construction accident attorneys.
DOG BITES
The physical and emotional scars of a dog attack can last a lifetime. Off-leash strangers’ dogs, strays and poorly trained pets can suddenly become aggressive, leaving pain, disfiguring scars, and psychological trauma in their wake. In addition to high medical costs, attack victims can struggle with PTSD, sleep disturbances, and a debilitating fear of dogs. Even if the animal belongs to a friend or associate, pursuing a civil case is necessary to cover medical costs, as well as prevent future victims. Your friend's insurance company will be charged (not them personally) while our experienced Birmingham dog bite lawyers make sure you obtain a successful recovery.
MEDICAL MALPRACTICE
Doctors swear an oath to protect their patients and act in their best interests. When a healthcare professional acts with negligence and violates the standard of care, they should be held accountable. Medical malpractice injuries can result from a healthcare professional acting in damage-causing negligence, omitting information, or making a serious error in diagnosis, treatment, or aftercare. Since medical malpractice cases are highly complex to navigate and must be acted on soon after the personal injury occurs, it's crucial to have an experienced medical malpractice attorney guide you through the process.
NURSING HOME ABUSE
Nursing home abuse is an outrage that runs rampant in U.S. elder care, leaving victims neglected, malnourished, and abused behind closed doors. Unfortunately, Birmingham is no exception. Some signs of mistreatment might include unexplained bruises, sudden weight loss, or concerning conversations with a loved one in a long-term care facility. Our firm's personal injury attorneys can help investigate your suspicions and bring abusers to justice.
SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY
If you've found yourself unable to work due to disability - including vision impairment, diabetes or a hip replacement - you may have applied for federal aid without success. If you are disabled, a U.S. veteran, or are over 65 and filing for Social Security benefits, bureaucratic organizations may deny your claim, leaving you with a difficult path forward. If this has happened to you, hiring one of our Birmingham disability attorneys to appeal the denial may increase your likelihood of getting the support you need to safeguard your future.
