Personal injury lawsuits are filed by people (or their representatives) injured due to the negligence, intentional act or recklessness of someone else. The injury may be either physical or emotional, and it can arise from a variety of sources or types of conduct. Some of the most common types of personal injury cases include slip and fall, automobile accidents, assaults and battery, and product liability. In general, the goal of a personal injury action is to determine who was responsible and to compel the responsible party to compensate the injured person for the losses sustained.

When someone is determined to be legally accountable for injuring another, whether directly or through a product for which they are responsible, he or she is liable for the injury and can be made to pay the injured person compensatory damages. Compensatory damages attempt to put the injured person back in the position he or she was in before the injury. In some cases, punitive damages (additional money paid as a punishment for conduct) are awarded to punish the wrongdoers and prevent them from doing additional harm.
