Personal Injury
Personal injury refers to any damage or injury you suffer due to another person’s negligence (or fault). These types of cases can arise through a variety of circumstances: For example, premises liability incidents, trip and fall, slip and fall, car wrecks, workplace injuries, products liability cases (where someone is injured by a defective product), and nursing home abuse are just a few common sources of personal injury cases.
If you have been injured due to no fault of your own, contact us here at the Mullis Law Firm. We can help determine the options available to you, and talk you through them. Please keep in mind that there is a statute of limitations for all personal injury claims, so it is best to consult an attorney as soon as possible.

What To Do After Being Injured?
Whether the injury occurred at home, in public, or during a car accident, you need to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Try not to delay, since every day that goes by could undermine your case for compensation. Following your doctor’s visit, keep all of the paperwork related to your appointment.
If your injury occurred at work, stop whatever you’re doing and get help immediately. Notify your superior of the injury and seek medical attention as soon as possible. It’s important to have the injury on record so that you’re able to seek workers comp. Make sure to keep any paperwork related to your medical visit (bills, discharge papers, prescriptions, doctor’s notes, etc…) Following the incident, your superior will most likely file an incident report and help you get a workers comp claim filed.
After you receive medical attention, consult with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible. They can talk you through your options and help you figure out next steps.
