If you have been injured because of someone else’s negligence, then a lawsuit may be considered. But not all cases are practical to pursue, given the expense of litigation. Whether a lawsuit is practical depends upon the nature and extent of your injuries.
Often it is difficult to tell right away whether your injuries will heal uneventfully and within a short time or whether the injuries will linger on, or worse, be permanent.
For example, a car crash may cause you back pain due to a temporary muscle sprain, or it may be from a herniated disc. Which it turns out to be will only be known in time. Even still, a muscle sprain can be permanent. Certainly, a herniated disc caused by negligence may warrant considering a lawsuit if it is causing severe pain.
