Naqvi Accident Injury Law

This depends on the severity of your injury. Are you permanently disabled or unable to return to your job because of the injury? Did you lose a loved one in the car wreck? Every case is different, so every settlement/verdict is different. The best way to determine the value of your potential case is to give me a call.

Punitive and compensatory damages are usually combined to be the sum of a judgment. Punitive damages are a way to punish the defendant for a serious breach of contract or a particular law and deter them from similar action in the future. These damages are sometimes used to set examples for other companies or individuals who could potentially violate a similar law or contract; however, punitive damages are not always awarded and most judgments are made up of only compensatory damages. Compensatory damages are meant to make-up for the plaintiff’s injuries. The amount can include compensation for medical bills, legal fees, pain and suffering, etc. where the goal is to properly compensate the plaintiff for the different aspects of their accident and injury.

No. The law provides the pursuit of compensation for an injury that was due to the carelessness of another person, company or entity. There needs to be some type of direct connection between the carelessness and your injury. The fact that something “might” have happened doesn’t count.

No. I am pleased to handle all personal injury cases on a *“contingency fee- basis.” What is a *contingency fee? This is where you agree to pay a percentage of the total recovery in the case. The percentage varies depending on the type of injury case. This is a good system for you, the client, since I handle the expenses of initiating the injury litigation process.
