WHAT IS A PERSONAL INJURY?Personal injury is an
injury to a persons mind, body or emotions
because of an act of someone or because of
his/her failure to act. Upon successful action,
the person blamed for the injury compensates the
injured. Theres no such thing as an average
personal injury settlement. Depending on the
damage caused, it can range from a few hundred
dollars to millions of dollars. They are filed
under the jurisdiction of the state where the
injury occurred. When parties to the case live in
different states, the case may be filed under the
Federal Trial Court. Ref http//www.americanba
