Types of Personal Injury
To help cultivate a better understanding of the type of case you might have, we have put together a list of the most common categories of personal injury.
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Auto accidents result in a large variety of damages. While some of these accidents are simple fender benders, others result in injured victims that become disabled for the remainder of their lives.
Particularly dangerous are motorcycle or truck accidents. In these cases, damages run high and it is difficult for an individual to secure proper compensation from insurance companies without the help of experienced legal aid.
Slip and Fall
Similar to car accidents, slip and fall cases vary in severity and damages, potentially creating unexpected medical bills and even a need for lifetime care.
Product Liability
When using a defective product, there is potential for injury to yourself or other third parties. As such injuries could result in unexpected expenses, seeking compensation is often necessary.
Medical Malpractice and Medical Negligence
One of the more complicated types of personal injury, medical cases are in a class of their own. These are cases in which you or a loved one received medical care that was substandard, resulting in either an incorrect diagnosis, persisting problems, worsening conditions, or even wrongful death.

This class of personal injury cases deals with a loved one who died unnecessarily due to the performance, or lack thereof, of another individual. Commonly, this type of injury occurs concurrently with other cases, such as medical malpractice claims.

Types of Damages
The main goal of pursuing legal action after a personal injury is to secure compensation for the harm you’ve suffered. In North Carolina, damages typically fall into two main categories:
-
Economic Damages
Economic damages are measurable and include costs like lost wages, medical bills, and reduced earning capacity. In most cases, these damages make up the majority of the compensation sought and are the easiest to prove during litigation.
-
Non-Economic Damages
Non-economic damages are harder to measure and cover pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of quality of life, and sometimes loss of companionship. These require more effort to prove due to their intangible nature.
