Governmental immunity can be
waived through the Tort Claims. There are certain cases when government
employees or agencies hold immunity from being filed a case against when
negligence or accidents occur while they are doing their job for the country.
This means that if you are in a government facility and you had an accident
that causes injury, you cannot file a case against that facility. The same goes
when a government employee had caused you injury not intentionally but
accidentally while in line of duty is also immune from lawsuits.
Because of the Tort claim, though
these individuals or government facilities are immune from being filed a case
against, one can actually file a case against the country itself. With the help
of tort claims lawyers at We are the Injury Lawyers can help you with this
process. The process of filing for a tort claim can be daunting and if you
don’t know what to do or how to proceed, you may most likely end up not filing
at all. If you do that you would end up shouldering all the medical bills or
expenses on the damages that have incurred.
There is a process in making such
claim and it is important that you are backed by a reputable lawyer who has a
lot of experience to assist you on this. It is important that before filing for
a claim against the country, you and your lawyer would first file for a claim
administratively for the entire amount of medical bills, or for the damages it
had caused whether physically or to your property or vehicle. You need to be
able to do this within the 2 years from the time that the injury or damage
happened. Otherwise it will be forfeited
and you cannot go for the claim against the country as the next step.
Your tort claims lawyer will make
sure that you get to process your claim on time and will update you regularly
of what is happening to your case. The departments where the personnel or
facility belongs to in the government would then be reviewing your claim and
will proceed to the next step and will decide how to pay for the damages. With
the tort claims lawyer, they will help you to get the most that you can for
your case so you won’t end up spending for the damages that you did not cause
but you are rather just the victim of. If you believe you can file for a tort
claims for an incident that happened within 2 years, go and get a free
consultation from our lawyers as soon as possible.
