A personal injury lawyer is an attorney who provides legal representation to individuals who have been injured, physically or psychologically, as a result of the negligence or wrongdoing of another person, company, government agency, or other entity. Personal injury lawyers typically handle cases involving injuries resulting from car accidents, slip and fall accidents, medical malpractice, and other types of accidents. They help clients navigate the legal process and seek compensation for their losses, including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
