What Is Considered a Personal Injury Case?

A personal injury case arises when someone is injured due to another party's negligence or wrongful actions. At Rausch Law Firm, we handle a wide range of personal injury claims, including:

  • Car Accidents—Injuries caused by negligent or reckless drivers.
  • Truck Accidents—Severe injuries resulting from collisions with large commercial vehicles.
  • Motorcycle Accidents—Injuries sustained by motorcyclists due to careless motorists.
  • Medical Malpractice—Harm caused by medical errors or negligence.
  • Dog Bites and Animal Attacks—Injuries caused by dangerous animals.


If you've been hurt in any of these situations, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.

When Should You Call a Personal Injury Lawyer?

Timing is crucial when it comes to filing a personal injury claim. You should contact a lawyer if:

  • You’re Unsure Who Is at Fault— Determining liability can be complex. A lawyer can investigate and identify the responsible party.
  • You’ve Been Offered a Settlement—insurance companies often offer low settlements to close cases quickly. An attorney ensures you receive a fair amount.
  • Your Injury Requires Ongoing Medical Treatment—If your injury is severe or long-term, you may need compensation for future medical care and lost earning potential.

By reaching out to us immediately after the incident can assist us in gathering critical evidence—such as photos, videos, and witness statements—that can be preserved and used to support your case. Don’t wait—call us now at 319-233-3557.

What to Consider When Filing a Personal Injury Claim

Before filing a claim, it’s essential to understand:

  • Proof of Negligence—Establishing that the other party was negligent and caused your injury.
  • Medical Documentation—Keeping detailed records of medical visits, treatments, and expenses to support your case.
  • Impact on Your Life—Consider the effect of the injury on your daily life, work, emotional well-being, and relationships.
