Life is full of risks. You never know when someone’s negligence will change your life forever. Injuries that people sustain are often a result of someone else’s failure in various scenarios. It can result in not only bodily harm but also psychological impairments, not to mention the pain and suffering that accompany such injury. These injuries can also inflict substantial monetary losses, including loss of wages and ongoing medical expenses, including hospital bills, therapy, rehabilitation, and medical equipment.
