Personal injury is a term of art used to refer to the tort of negligence which causes bodily injury to some individual. Negligence can come in many forms including negligent operation of a motor vehicle that results in a wreck or some other type of damage. When you are in an automobile accident and you are hurt it's a personal injury claim. Generally the person who caused the accident due to their negligence should be on the hook to "make whole" the person they harmed. This means compensating the injured party for their medical bills, lost work, lost property, and any other types of loss arising from the car accident.
When insurance companies are involved their goal is not to make a person whole but to limit the cost in terms of payout they must make to the injured party. Their sole purpose is to pay as little as possible.
It's a competent personal injury attorney's job to maximize recover by holding the insurance company to their duty. When a personal injury attorney insurance take notice and low-ball offers usually cease. Contact from the opposing insurance company will also stop.
