PERSONAL INJURY & WRONGFUL DEATH: The law allows recovery of money damages for injuries inflicted through the negligent or wrongful conduct of another. The most common, everyday example is the injury sustained in a vehicular accident where you, the plaintiff, are hurt by the irresponsible conduct of the other driver, the defendant. In such a case, the law permits you to claim damages for various items (lost wages, mental anguish, medical expenses, etc.) from the defendant or his insurance company.

Of course, injuries may result from other causes such as a defective product, the condition of premises, professional malpractice, or through the intentional actions of someone in assaulting you.

CIVIL RIGHTS: Like personal injury and employment law, the field of civil rights law is broad. In fact, it often overlaps other areas of the law. On the one hand, it might describe the case of a fifth grade school girl who seeks damages resulting from sexual molestation by her band director because the school district, despite knowing of previous similar behavior of the director, deliberately fails to stop it. On the other hand, civil rights litigation may encompass a suit against a city for improperly damaging your home or denying you the right to speak on matters of public importance. The term “civil rights” might also encompass voting and political rights — the denial of the right to vote, the misapportionment of a political district in a way that deprives you of proper political representation, or the denial of your right to participate in political affairs. It may also encompass discriminatory housing policies. As with personal injury and employment law, the various matters that might give rise to civil rights liability are vast.

EMPLOYMENT & LABOR: This area of the law is broad and intricate. Most laymen are familiar with concepts of employment law through suits involving sexual harassment or those for race, sex, age, disability, national origin or religious discrimination. Federal and state laws prohibit sexual harassment and the forms of discrimination specified above. For example, if you have been sexually harassed to the extent that it adversely impacts on your employment opportunities or creates a hostile environment, you may have a claim enforceable in a court of law that will force your employer to pay for the damage done to you. The same is true if you have been fired, demoted, not hired, or have suffered other adverse consequences because of your race, age, disability, national origin, sex

INSURANCE CLAIMS: With increasing frequency, insurance companies deny payment of valid claims for what appear to be illegitimate reasons. This is particularly true in the case of health insurance claims, where a denial often leads to further injury to the insured. It means you have not been given what was promised to you, and the refusal of the company to pay results in a deprivation of needed medical care and leads at times to catastrophic losses. In some cases, the law will provide a remedy for the added injury caused by an insurance company’s failure to deal fairly with you, its insured. Insurance litigation is not confined to this simple example. You may be a worker on workers’ compensation whose weekly benefits are denied. Or you may be an individual seeking recovery under your homeowner’s policy for the destruction of your home. Both situations may cause serious financial losses.

MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENT: The law allows recovery of money damages for injuries sustained in a vehicular accident where you, the plaintiff, are hurt by the irresponsible conduct of the other driver, the defendant. In such a case, the law permits you to claim damages for various items (lost wages, mental anguish, medical expenses, etc.) from the defendant or his insurance company.
