Helping Destin Residents Find Justice for their Injuries
In a perfect world, everyone would exercise the proper amount of care to prevent injuring other people. People in such a world would only be harmed through unforeseen forces of nature beyond anyone’s reasonable control. Unfortunately, many accidents happen due to the careless acts of another person. Thankfully, our legal system was designed so those who wrongfully injured another person can be held financially accountable for their ensuing pecuniary losses.
If you’ve been injured as a result of another person’s wrongful or negligent behavior, you might be entitled to a legal remedy compensating you for your loss. Understanding the full extent of your legal rights requires the advice of a professionally trained and experienced Destin personal injury attorney.

Personal Injury Matters We Handle
Where the criminal justice system punishes wrongdoers for intentionally committed wrongs, the civil justice system is preoccupied with shifting financial responsibility for injuries to those who were in a better position to prevent such injuries. In general, negligence law recognizes that everyone has a duty to exercise reasonable care to avoid causing other people injury. Accordingly, the law imposes civil liability on persons who breach that duty and consequently injury someone else.
At Dowd Law Firm, we have experience litigating many personal injury cases such as:
- Car accidents
- Truck accidents
- Boating accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Workplace accidents
When someone suffers a severe, and sometimes life-altering injury, their ability to earn enough money to cover their medical expenses is usually diminished. It would not be fair to force the injured victim to endure the additional hardship of their injuries and bear the resulting financial burden alone. Justice demands that persons who were responsible for injuring others else share or completely relieve victims of that burden.
