Personal Injury
An injury can change everything. One moment you’re living your normal life—and the next, you’re dealing with pain, medical bills, missed work and unanswered questions. Whether it was a car accident, a fall, a medical mistake, or any act of negligence, if someone else caused your injury, you have rights. At the Law Office of Maria R. Alaimo, we fight to protect those rights with compassion, clarity, and determination.
What Is Personal Injury Law?
Personal injury law exists to help people who have been physically, emotionally, or financially harmed due to someone else’s carelessness or wrongful actions. These cases focus on restoring what was lost—by holding the responsible party accountable and securing compensation for the harm done.
Common types of personal injury cases include:
- Auto accidents
- Slip, trip, and fall accidents
- Premises liability (injuries on someone else’s property)
- Product liability (dangerous or defective products)
- Nail Salon Injuries
- Negligent security
- Medical negligence or malpractice
If you’ve been hurt due to another person or business’s failure to act responsibly, you may have a valid personal injury claim.
Understanding Personal Injury Law - When You’re Hurt, We’re Here to Help
Personal injury cases aren’t just about money. They’re about giving you the chance to recover, regain stability, and move forward with dignity. A successful claim can provide the resources you need to heal—and it sends a clear message that carelessness has consequences.
When people and companies are held accountable, future harm can often be prevented. Your case can be part of a greater push for safety, fairness, and responsibility in your community.
Do You Need a Lawyer?
In one word: YES
Insurance companies aren’t on your side. Their goal is to settle quickly and cheaply—often before you even know the full extent of your injuries. A personal injury lawyer levels the playing field. We handle the legal complexity, investigate thoroughly, and negotiate from a position of strength so you’re not left vulnerable or undercompensated.
We protect your future by ensuring you don’t sign away your rights or accept less than you truly deserve.
What Can You Be Compensated For?
The aftermath of an injury often affects every part of your life. Depending on your situation, you may be able to recover damages for:
- Medical expenses (past and future)
- Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Long-term care or rehabilitation
- Permanent disability or disfigurement
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Property damage (if applicable)
We take time to understand the full impact of your injury—physically, emotionally, and financially—so we can pursue the maximum compensation possible.
Our Legal Process: What to Expect
We believe that you deserve transparency, support, and a clear path forward. Here's how our personal injury process typically works:
- Free Consultation: We start with a conversation. We’ll listen carefully to what happened, answer your questions, and explain your rights.
- Case Evaluation: We’ll review medical records, police reports, witness statements, photos, and any other relevant documents.
- Investigation: Our team works to gather and preserve critical evidence. In some cases, we may bring in experts to support your claim.
- Medical Coordination: We ensure you get the care you need and document your recovery journey to reflect the true scope of your injuries.
- Demand Letter and Negotiations: Once we understand the full extent of your damages, we prepare a demand for compensation and begin negotiating with the insurance company or at-fault party.
- Settlement or Litigation: Many cases settle outside of court. If necessary, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial to fight for the justice you deserve.
Throughout the process, we are here to keep you informed, supported, and empowered.
