Have You Suffered a Personal Injury? Learn How To Get Compensated
Personal injury, also known as tort law, is a legal term that describes a circumstance where a person suffers bodily injury as a result of another party’s actions or activities. By law, when you suffer a personal injury, meaning you are not responsible or at-fault for the incident in which you were hurt, you have the right to seek compensation from the party that has caused you harm.
At the Moore Law Firm, it is our job to represent your best interest and make sure the at-fault party is held accountable for their actions. If you are looking for an experienced and versatile personal injury lawyer, get in touch now for a case consultation!

Proving Liability:
The Key to Winning Your Personal Injury Case
In most cases, accidents happen because at least one party was acting carelessly. These can be anything from minor behaviors that result in minor damage or gross negligence that cause extensive injuries to the victim.
No matter the extent of injuries or the type of action you have to take to get compensated (insurance claim or personal injury lawsuit), one key aspect you need to focus on is proving liability.
And to prove legal liability, you essentially need to show that the defendant:
- Had a duty to be careful towards the injured victim.
- Is responsible for said injuries, either because of their actions or lack thereof.
- Is responsible for covering the victim’s damages.
Your own actions will come into question as well. If you are also at-fault, albeit to a lesser degree, it’s likely for your compensation to be lowered based on your personal fault degree.
You will need to provide the court or insurance company evidence that essentially supports your claim. For example, if you get hurt because a dog bit you, then you may seek compensation for these injuries from the dog owner. But to receive it, you have to provide evidence:
- Of who is responsible to ensure their dog behaves. In some cases, it may not be the owner, but a dog walker or other party.
- That their actions resulted in your injuries (such as not keeping the dog on a leash.
- That they are also responsible for covering your medical bills resulting from the injuries.
Example: Dog Bites
Keeping the previous example, if the dog bites you out of the blue in a public place, then you are not at fault for the incident. The dog owner or walker should have shown higher caution to keep their dog on a leash.
But, if you walk up to the dog, start to pet it, and the dog bites you, it can be argued that you are at least partially responsible for the injury. Dogs are territorial and protective by nature, so if a stranger walks up to them they may see it as a threat.
