An injury is never a pleasant thought, but if it is inflicted because of someone else, it becomes all the more troublesome. In case you have to go through an injury lawsuit, the first thing you will need is an experienced injury lawyer, someone who will be able to assist you through the many crucial stages and legal loopholes. 
These are the main stages of a personal injury lawsuit:
1.    Initial consultation - The process will always begin with an initial consultation between the injured party and a personal injury lawyer. At this time, the lawyer will evaluate the facts of the case, collect relevant documents such as medical records and accident reports, and assess the potential legal claims.
2.    Complaint filing - Once your Plantation injury lawyer decides to proceed with the case, he or she will file a complaint in the appropriate court, which outlines the allegations against the defendant, the legal basis for the claim, and the compensation that are being sought for the damages caused.
3.    Discovery: This is the stage where both parties exchange information and gather evidence to build their case. From written interrogatories, to requests for documents, and depositions where witnesses and parties provide sworn testimony.
4.    Pre-trial motions -Before trial, there may be various motions filed by both parties. These motions can seek to dismiss certain claims, exclude evidence, or request summary judgment if there are no genuine disputes of material fact.
5.    Negotiations: Additionally, at times, there might also be negotiations for settlement, aiming to resolve the case without the parties having to goto trial.
6.    Trial: In the case does not settle or the negotiations do not go through, the case proceeds to trial. During the trial, each side presents evidence, calls witnesses, and argues their case before a judge and/or jury.
