Personal Injury

Personal Injury means any injury you suffer that is caused by someone else, excluding your employer.  Personal injuries arise out of a variety of situations, including:

  • Automobile Accidents
  • Construction Accidents
  • Slip and Fall
  • Product Failure
  • Medical Malpractice


Most personal injury claims have to be filed within 2 years of the injury.  They are filed generally in the Circuit Court of the county where the accident takes place, or possibly in Federal Court if the parties are from different states.

If you are the victim of someone else’s negligence, get the advice and direction you need from a free consultation with a lawyer from Harvey & Stuckel.

Things you should do

  • Get immediate treatment - don’t wait!
  • Don’t assume - tell your doctor or health provider how you got hurt.
  • DO NOT GIVE A STATEMENT TO AN INSURANCE COMPANY - you are not required to and it will only hurt your claim.
