Torts are civil wrongs recognized by law as grounds for a lawsuit. These wrongs result in an injury or harm constituting the basis for a claim by the injured party. While some torts are also crimes punishable with imprisonment, the primary aim of tort law is to provide relief for the damages incurred and deter others from committing the same harms. The injured person may sue for an injunction to prevent the continuation of the tortious conduct or for monetary damages. (See Damages) Among the types of damages the injured party may recover are: loss of earnings capacity, pain and suffering, and reasonable medical expenses. They include both present and future expected losses.

Legal Facts

Twenty-five percent of felony defendants in 2000 had an active criminal justice status at the time of the current charged offense, including 14% who were on probation, 13% on pretrial release, and 6% on parole.

Appellate courts implement various strategies to make the workload of appellate courts more efficient. Thirty seven States, by 1998, for example, had some expedited briefing procedures in their appellate court systems (table 26). Eighteen States had accelerated or special calendars in some courts for specific case types (table 27), and all but 12 States had some limitation on oral arguments in criminal and/or civil cases.

Choosing a Lawyer

Always find out how much many similar cases the lawyer has taken up:
The legal profession is very vast. Lawyers take up cases of varying nature and may not have a good working knowledge of the nature of certain cases. You must speak to the lawyer and find out whether he/she has actually taken up cases of a similar/same nature. After all, what would a divorce lawyer know about personal injury cases. Make sure that the lawyer takes up at least 60% cases of a similar nature/ similar field of law.

Get full clarity on the fee structure:
Lawyers may charge you for every action they take while defending you or representing you in court. This could amount to hundreds of dollars an hour. While choosing your lawyer, keep in mind that you must discuss the fees in detail so that there are no hidden costs to be discovered later. The fee will greatly depend upon the nature of your case, and whether the lawyer is comfortable with it therefore the details must be ascertained before hand in black and white.
