Personal Injury Law
Torris J. Butterfield and Associates, P.C.
If you are injured as a result of someone else’s negligence, you can sue the negligent party. You are entitled to lost wages, pain and suffering, and in some cases, punitive damages. Attorney Butterfield handles the following personal injury cases:
Automobile accidents
Slip and Fall
Medical or legal malpractice
Defective products (product liability).
Wrongful Death
In every case, you must prove at least two things, although most lawyers are trained to look for duty, breach, causation, and damages:
LIABILITY:
You must prove that the accident, or the incident that caused your injury was the other party’s fault.
DAMAGES:
You must prove that the negligent act caused you injury. The injury may be physical and/or psychological.
If you have been injured, you should contact an attorney as soon as possible, because the statute of limitations for personal injuries depends on your state law. In Georgia, the limit is generally two years from the time you knew, or should have known about the negligence. If you have any questions, send us an e-mail at info@butterfieldlawfirm.com.
