How Long Do I Have To File My Broken Bone Lawsuit?
The time it takes to resolve your broken bone personal injury lawsuit can depend on many factors, including how quickly you filed the claim after the injury incident. According to the Statute of Limitations, you have up to two years from the date of the injury incident to file a lawsuit with the court. After that time, you will lose the right to seek compensation and justice for the losses and expenses caused by that incident. But it is also critical to understand that the longer you wait to pursue legal action, the longer it can take for the case to be completed. As time passes, it becomes more challenging for your legal team to contact witnesses and even those who could have been involved in the incident. So, it is wise to contact Normandie Law Firm as quickly as possible after suffering any personal injuries.

Finally, you must understand that if the party deemed responsible for your broken bone injuries is a government entity such as the city, state, or federal government, the time to file your case with the court is decreased to only six months from the date of the incident. Please reach out to Normandie Law Firm today to discuss the facts of your broken bone injury lawsuit and the time remaining for you to file a claim. Once the Statute of Limitations expires, there is little event the expert legal team at Normandie Law Firm can do to help you get the compensation and justice that you deserve for an injury caused by someone else’s negligence.

Other Factors That Influence The Time Needed To Resolve Your Broken Bone Lawsuit
If you are like most personal injury victims, you want to have your broken bone injury lawsuit completed as quickly as possible. However, most people are unaware of the many factors that can influence the time needed to complete these cases. Some of the vital factors to consider include:

• The severity of your injuries and the time needed to reach a complete recovery
• The actions of other parties involved and their willingness to testify or take responsibility for their part in the injury incident
• The workload of the court hearing the case
• The level of expertise of your legal team handling the broken bone lawsuit

It can appear as if all of these factors are beyond your control. However, the most important is the level of experience and expertise of the legal team handling your case. In many instances, an experienced personal injury lawyer will have the case settled before it ever sees the inside of a courtroom because the responsible party is not willing to invest the time and cost of litigation. Your expert lawyer will explain the liability and demonstrate how easily they will secure your compensation and their legal fees from the liable party. Simply put, your expert lawyer from Normandie Law Firm will show the opposing legal team that it is in their client’s best interest to settle quickly to save themselves the cost of litigation.

Common Personal Injury Incidents That Cause Broken Bones
The human body contains over 200 bones, many of which can easily be broken when suffering severe impact. Being involved in any of the following incidents could result in you suffering one or more broken bones that require costly medical care and could cause you to miss work for weeks or even months:

• Slip and falls
• Trip and falls
• Impact from a falling object
• Bike versus vehicle incidents
• Pedestrians being struck by a car
• Multi-vehicle accidents
• Direct blows to the body during a physical altercation or fight, such as a punch or kick
• Compression or crushing accidents involving heavy equipment or machinery

When asked, the average person is likely to say that broken bones in the hands and feet are the most common. However, the collarbone is the most often broken bone in the body and one of the most painful. Sadly, the collarbone and ribs are also some of the most difficult to treat as they cannot be fully immobilized due to their movement when breathing. Other bones that are commonly broken but can require lengthy medical care to heal correctly include:

• Arm
• Ankle
• Wrist
• Leg
• Hip
• Nose
• Toe
• Tailbone
• Spine

How Much Is My Broken Bone Injury Lawsuit Worth?
Many personal injury victims are shocked to learn that there are no predetermined compensation amounts awarded for specific injuries. Instead, each case is carefully evaluated, and the amount awarded to the victim is based on the victim’s actual losses and expenses. Working closely with your Normandie Law Firm broken bone personal injury lawyer, you will compile all the documentation to support your allowable expenses, which typically includes but is not always limited to:

• The replacement cost of any personal property that was damaged or destroyed in the injury incident
• The cost of all legal services to prepare, file, and litigate your broken bone injury lawsuit
• The cost of all current and projected medical care related to the care and rehabilitation of broken bones
• Your lost income if the broken bone injuries prevent you from working at your regular job until you have reached a complete recovery

In cases that involve severe harm and a lengthy recovery time, victims are permitted to seek added compensation for their pain and suffering. Because this is not a documented amount like a medical bill or lost income, your Normandie Law Firm legal team will guide you in selecting a reasonable amount for this aspect of the compensation. They will research recently resolved cases to ensure you seek the most robust pain and suffering compensation permitted under the law.
