What counts as personal injury?

Many people do not realize that there is a legal difference between a regular injury and what is legally called a personal injury. Personal injury law deals with people who have suffered injuries and other damages as a result of someone else’s negligent actions or even inaction. In personal injury or tort cases, the plaintiff has to prove he or she did in fact sustain injuries from the defendant and that the injuries could have been avoided if the defendant had acted responsibly.
