Many people are still confused about on how personal injury law really works. Here is an explanation and definition of the civil justice system. Let us say you are injured due to some negligence in an auto accident, truck accident, fall or defective drug or by a medical mistake. Maybe from toxic contamination that was released from a nearby manufacturing plant or by a defective drug or product. In any of those examples listed, your remedy to recover damages is to make a claim within the civil justice system. The rules for personal injury law are based on a combination of statutory laws, which are laws that were passed by the legislature. Statuary laws are also referred to as common laws. Usually laws are based on what we inherited from judicial precedents. If we discuss both personal injury law and litigation, you can break up personal injury litigation into two general categories. The two categories are negligence cases and international acts. They are also known as torts. **End Summary** Topics: New York Injury Lawyers]]> NY Injury Lawyers]]> New York accident lawyers]]> NY Accident Lawyers]]> New York Personal Injury Lawyers]]> NY Personal Injury Lawye]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> http://www.nylawyer.net/ Mon, 23 Nov 2009 00:49:28 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Common-Personal-Injury-litigation/839946
