FAQs in Personal Injury Case

Even if you had or not, you must be aware about injury cases. Read the following FAQs if you possess any doubts related to personal injury cases.

How to determine if my case requires an attorney?

My accident hurled serious physical damages to me and my property. My attorney informed me that such cases are liable for claim under injury lawsuit. I also learnt that these cases have certain limitations and minor damage incidents are not covered under the lawsuit.

Can I handle the case independently?

Certainly not. After thorough research I found that these cases require tricks and humungous legal knowledge with experience. My case was handled by Ryan Orsatti and I discovered that his strategies were far better and valid than what I would have followed independently.

My insurance provider says I don't need an attorney, is this advice genuine?

I would suggest not to follow this advice. My friend pursued without an attorney under his insurance provider’s guidance and he did not win all the claims. His insurance provider played safe and earned maximum profit out of the situation. Later, he realised that his interests and those of insurance provider were not same.

What is Statue of Limitations?

The Statue of Limitations defines the maximum time frame within which legal proceedings must be initiated after which the case is auto-dismissed. For example, my injury case happened on 3 July 2014 and according to 2 years of Statue of Limitations in Texas, I was liberalized to file my case till 3 July 2016.

What is Statue of Limitation for a personal injury case?

I learnt from my attorney that the Statue of Limitations differ from one state jurisdiction to the other. The time limitation of legal proceedings for injury cases varies from maximum 1 year to a maximum of 6 years depending on the state.

The prescribed drugs affected me adversely. What should I do?

In that case, collect all evidences related to the drug like prescription form, pharmacy bill, medical records, etc. I consulted Ryan Orsatti for my brother’s injury casea and he immediately referred him to an authorized health care provider. My brother’s case went hand in hand with his medical treatment.

My pregnancy affected me and my newborn physically, what should I do?

First and foremost, collect your all pregnancy & delivery related documents and file an injury case against the provider. Injury lawsuit can get you claims for all damages caused during your incident. My new-born suffered injuries after 2 days of delivery due to drug over dose and my attorney Ryan Orsatti battled legally to win the compensation for me and my baby.

Is it necessary for me to go court?

No, absolutely not. Attorney handles all communications.

Will the accused party be punished?

No, accused is never punished as per Tort Law. I learnt that punishments are levied under criminal laws. Injury laws are meant just to seek claim from the wrong doer and these are referred as civil actions. In some cases, ‘punitive damage' charges are levied by court or jury on the accused if he/she has behaved intentionally against society. For example, damage due to drunk and drive is considered as a punitive damage.

Am I eligible for injury claim if my accident's medical expenses have been covered by my insurance provider?

Yes, of course! You are entitled to full medical cost claim which means the actual cost of treatment. Be aware, of insurance companies as they try to manipulate damage to reduce the claim amount and keep themselves in the profit zone. I’ve suffered this and would suggest to take legal advice from an experienced attorney.

What is the worth of my claim?

My accident's worth was calculated by my attorney Ryan Orsatti based on  accident's circumstances and available evidences.
