Biblical Principles for Personal Injury

The principles of personal injury law are as old as the Bible itself.  As has been discussed in other posts, the idea of justice are dear to all Biblical ideals.  However, the concept of compensation for personal injuries has been addressed directly in the second book of the Bile.

Now suppose two men are fighting, and in the process they accidentally strike a pregnant woman so she gives birth prematurely. If no further injury results, the man who struck the woman must pay the amount of compensation the woman's husband demands and the judges approve. But if there is further injury, the punishment must match the injury: a life for a life, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot, a burn for a burn, a wound for a wound, a bruise for a bruise. Exodus 21:22-25.

These ideals are what we at Dixon Law Office practice every day.  We ask that the wrongdoer make things right by compensating the victim for the wrongs.  If they refuse, we ask judges and juries to order the compensation that is just and fair.

None of this is easy.  Nothing in the Bible says that doing what is right is easy. Representing personal injury and worker’s compensation victims is not easy.  We fight for the rights of our clients because it is right.

If you or a loved one has been a victim, contact Dixon Law Office.  We will fight for your rights and get you the compensation you deserve.  Call or email us today.
