Personal injury as described by one Baltimore accident attorney is any case where the sole cause of the injury falls on the defendant without any cause in part or full by the injured party.
Basically personal injury can cover anything from slip and falls to major or minor auto accidents. Nursing home abuse and dog bite cases are also within this realm of injury case.
If you own a dog, for instance, who bites your neighbor and they receive a fair amount of injury, they may sue you for the costs of their medical bills and time lost from work.
They will have to prove that it was your negligence that let the dog out and prove that they did not antagonise the dog at all.
