If you have recently been accidentally shot and suffered an injury, or if someone close to you has been injured or killed in a shooting accident, you may have the legal right to obtain compensation. Shooting accidents may result in serious injuries or death. Serious injuries can permanently negatively impact the victims health and lifestyle. Depending on the circumstances of your case, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries, loss of wages and other losses.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2002 there were 813 deaths attributed to the accidental discharge of firearms compared to 802 in 2001.
These types of personal injury cases are usually complex and expensive. You should always consult a qualified, licensed lawyer. These personal injury cases are normally handled on a contingency basis. Typically there are no fees unless the lawyer obtains a settlement or award for you. |
