There are literally hundreds of different ways that a personal injury can take place due to the negligence or an intentional act by another person. Motor vehicle accidents are the most common events that form the basis for a personal injury case. But you and your attorney can also pursue damages for other events such as products liability, medical malpractice, dog bites, and slip and fall accidents.

Motor vehicle accidents can result in everything from minor and temporary injuries to permanent debilitating injuries, and in some cases, death.
All vehicle accidents, whether they involve automobiles, trucks, motorcycles or bicycles, share the same fundamental premise when filing a suit to recover damages. A plaintiff must show that the defendant was negligent through their actions and that the resulting injuries to the victims and damages to vehicles and property were the results of that negligence. This paves the way for victims to collect judgments to pay for their medical bills, and to compensate them for lost wages and pain and suffering.
Through our experience at the Law Office of Christopher Kalis in handling numerous cases, we know that while all motor vehicle accidents share many commonalities, there are some differences depending on the type of vehicle involved.
Truck accidents can be highly complicated due to the fact that many owners may share liability, and that because of their tremendous size differences from cars and motorcycles, trucks tend to produce more serious and life threatening injuries. Motorcycle and bicycle accidents are unique in that courts tend to favor motorcycle riders when determining liability because they know those riders have less protection on the road, placing more responsibility on car and truck drivers. Motorcycle and bicycle riders are also given the benefit of a doubt because they are required to get additional safety training before they can take to the open road.

It’s not uncommon for workers to be injured on the job. When that happens, it’s important to seek legal counsel to ensure those workers are not taken advantage of by companies. High medical bills, time out of work and lost wages can mount in a hurry. Pain and suffering can also lower one’s quality of life. If your life is being affected by any of these things, there is an urgent need to ease your suffering. One of our personal injury lawyers can help with the following work related issues:
We spend so many of our waking hours at work, and it is reasonable to expect that an employer will do everything in their power to make that time a safe and pleasant experience. Unfortunately, by their very nature, many workplaces are dangerous, especially in an industrial setting where heavy machinery is involved.
Although businesses are generally heavily regulated when it comes to safety issues, equipment does wear out, routine service can slip through the cracks, and other cost-cutting measures may put workers in danger. Other businesses may handle hazardous chemical substances that can be highly toxic and flammable, producing devastating fires and explosions that can severely injure or kill workers.
More often than not, in workplace injury cases, the worker is pitted against the company’s management or even a parent corporation or third party. The legal fight can be long and drawn out for many years. That’s why filing a lawsuit for a workplace injury requires the skill of a lawyer such as Christopher Kalis who is well versed in state safety laws, workplace negligence and in dealing with corporate legal entities.
Most times, workplace injury cases do not go to trial, with both sides opting to reach a settlement. That means you will also need to have an attorney like Christopher Kalis who is a skilled negotiator in addition to a seasoned litigator in front of a judge and jury.
