Personal Injury
Personal injury involves injury to an individual. This area of law allows the injured person to sue in a private action called a civil action, known in the legal community as a tort action. A "tort" is a wrong against a person. Any accident or injury against a person can constitute a tort -- whether it be in a car accident, the use of a product, or the negligence of a professional. The Chicago personal injury lawyers of Clifford Law Offices stand ready to assist you in evaluating your case and pursuing justice.
