Welcome
to the area that describes some legal forms which are particularly helpful in
cases involving personal injury to the body of someone, no matter in what kind
of accident. From Motor Vehicle Accidents to Premises Fall Downs to
Product Liability -- if there is a bodily injury, this is the place for you to
start exploring for forms. |
Legal Forms that Apply to Bodily Injury Litigation.There are a number of legal forms that apply to the injuries themselves, not to the cause of the bodily injuries. We call this grouping our suite of personal injury litigation forms. | ||||||||||||||||
The primary form in the BI suite is the Plaintiff's Bodily Injury Deposition or Testimony Checklist. Prepare the questions to ask the injured plaintiff about his/her injuries --- in less than half the time. Every defense attorney in a motor vehicle, premises liability, or product defect case -- any tort BI case --- will want Plaintiff's Bodily Injury Deposition or Testimony Checklist. It is a complete checklist for the bodily injuries portions of your questions outline for the deposition of an injured person in any type of tort personal injury case.
There is also a separate checklist for deposition testimony of a spouse. It's designed to be used by plaintiff's counsel in personal injury litigation. But defense attorney for insurers tell us they also use this form, for taking the deposition of the spouse. It is the Spouse's Bodily Injury Deposition or Testimony Checklist. Every plaintiff's attorney will want Plaintiff's Bodily Injury Deposition or Testimony Checklist, but for two different reasons than the defense wants this form. As the lawyer for the injured person you will use this this checklist to prepare your personal injury lawsuit client for his/her deposition by the defense. And you will use this as your guide as your outline for asking your client questions at trial, to get the best direct testimony about the injuries into evidence. Is the plaintiff married? Then consider two different outline checklists of questions regarding the bodily injuries to the plaintiff. Both give you the questions to ask with the speed of pulling the checklist off your computer. They give the jury a different approach to injury testimony through a different pattern for the direct testimony of the spouse.

For the first five years doing defense work, I never could understand why most plaintiff's attorneys never had their client spend much time on the witness stand telling the real details of the injury that mean so much to the jury. When I started doing more plaintiff's work than defense work, I realized why: Most plaintiff's attorneys never took the time to develop a complete checklist of the injury questions to ask their client on the witness stand at the trial. And, on the other side of the table, most defense attorneys never took the time to develop a complete checklist of the injury questions to ask the plaintiff at the deposition. That does not have be you! You can buy a complete bodily injuries questions outline checklist form and save yourself the hours of drafting time to produce a checklist form. If you are a plaintiff's attorney, there are more forms in our suite built for you thatn for defense attorneys. Basically, that is because the plaintiff's counsel has a broader range of activities to accomplish before trial. The plaintiff-side forms range from handouts to give an injured client before a defense medical exam (IME) to a letter of protection regarding medical bills. Below are brief descriptions and entry links to some of the other legal forms or checklists that involve bodily injuries.
