Serious Injuries - Fractures, amputation, disfigurement and loss of support/earnings
Cerebral Palsy / Birth Defects due to medical negligence.
The term “Personal Injury” refers to an injury to the body or emotional suffering as a result of the wrong doing and/or negligence of any other person, entity, or government body, also known as a third party.
Our firm has decades of extensive experience and successful outcomes with personal injury matters. Our clients receive compensation for the damages and the losses they have suffered as a result of third parties being at fault and/or negligent.
We successfully finalise personal injury claims for victims of motor vehicle accidents, motorbike accidents (Road Accident Fund Act 56 of 1996 as amended), train accidents, boat accidents, slip-and-fall accidents, or any other injury-causing incident in a private or public place (including streets, pavements, and shopping malls), as well as assault by state/police, wrongful arrests, dog bites, medical malpractice, and medical negligence claims.
Personal injury and medical malpractice claims entail receiving monetary compensation for the damages and loss suffered by the victims and/or their families. We understand that in some cases, monetary compensation will never restore the “pre-injury status”, but at the very least, the cases can provide victims with the financial relief for future medical treatment, and to settle past medical and hospital expenses. In the case of loss of earnings or earning capacity, the monetary compensation can alleviate the burden of work incapacity and pecuniary loss or loss of support due to the death of a breadwinner.
