For the advice of a personal injury attorney, call the Law Office of Paul V. Bennett, PA. You will have the services of a lawyer with experience on both sides of personal injury lawsuits – first for the insurance companies, and now for the people who have been harmed due to negligence or intentional harmful actions.


You have the right to seek damages if you have been injured due to the actions of someone else, or due to a failure to take action. A personal injury attorney may be of service to you. Call to discuss how you, or someone you love, were harmed:

• In a vehicle wreck (car, truck, motorcycle, boat)
• Slipping and falling
• Medical or dental errors or malpractice
• Using a defective or malfunctioning product
• Hurt in the workplace
• You were injured while a pedestrian
• You were exposed to or breathed a toxic substance
• Call our personal injury attorney to discuss what caused your pain and suffering

Money is the typical form of damages that result from these kinds of cases. You are entitled to seek compensation for medical bills, income that you lost, for long-term care, for permanent disability, emotional distress, and more factors. The court or a jury may assess other money damages as punishment. The law allows for penalties for unreasonable, unsafe conduct. We understand that money alone cannot fully compensate you for what you have been through, what you are going through now, and what you face in the future. Discuss with your personal injury attorney whether it is a person (or persons), an entity (such as a business, hospital, or manufacturer) or an insurance company that bears responsibility for providing money damages in your case.

The law does not require that every personal injury be the result of someone trying to cause injury (intent). The law asks that a personal injury attorney prove that the defendant did not do what a reasonable person would have done under the circumstances – to make certain that someone did not get hurt. For example, a reasonable person would not drive a speeding pleasure boat while drinking. What would a reasonable doctor have done? What steps would a reasonable employer take to make sure an employee was safe in the workplace? What precautions would an insect service take to make certain no one breathed in the bug spray?

Many personal injury lawsuits are settled before going to trial before a judge and jury. Others will go to trial before the other side has to do what is right. While we never promise an outcome to a case, we always promise to deliver very personal service and attention. We understand that you have already been through a lot, and that bringing a lawsuit may seem like it would be stressful. We find that our individual attention can help ease any anxiety. We believe that if you get to know your personal injury attorney, it builds trust, and so you can count on our one-to-one attention. We are able to offer experience that matches large firms, with the attention that a smaller firm can deliver.
