When Can You Sue for Emotional Distress
Emotional distress or emotional harm can often be just as painful as a physical injury. This post will provide a detailed, reliable answer to the very common question of when someone can file a lawsuit and get damages for emotional distress.
What is Emotional Distress?
Emotional distress is a legal term that is used to describe mental pain, suffering, or anguish that is caused by the negligent or intentional actions of someone else. Tort law in the U.S. generally recognizes emotional distress (often referred to as “pain & suffering”) as a type of injury for which monetary damages can be awarded. In most states, however, damages can only be awarded for emotional distress if the emotional distress is directly caused by physical harm.
How to File a Lawsuit Against a Company
How do you sue a company? There are a lot of great companies out there. But there are many corporations that are just awful and should be sued. This page is about how to sue a company to remedy an injustice.
Navigating the legal pathway to sue a company might seem challenging, but it’s essential to know that you, as a consumer or an employee, have the power to hold companies accountable for their actions.
The bottom line is that companies owe a duty of care to their customers, employees, and the public. When they fail in this responsibility, and it leads to an injury, it’s within your rights to seek justice.
State & Federal Court: What’s the Difference? | Learning About Lawsuits
In the U.S., we have 2 different levels of courts: federal courts and state courts. This page will attempt to explain the difference between federal and state courts.
State Courts
State courts are courts of very general jurisdiction. They have the authority to hear and decide almost any legal issue within the general purview of the state’s authority — which is basically everything. Anything that is governed by state statutory law (as opposed to federal law) is within the authority and jurisdiction of state courts. This includes everything from criminal offenses, divorce, estates, and more.

Negligent Security Lawsuits
On this page, our lawyers will explain the basics of negligent security lawsuits (also referred to as inadequate security lawsuits). Negligent security lawsuits are a subset of premises liability in which property owners are held liable for unsafe conditions that cause injury to visitors or customers. In negligent security cases, the property owner or business is held liable for failing to provide adequate security to protect guests from violence.
We will outline the basic elements of negligent security cases, which are the same in every state. We will also discuss the settlement payout value of inadequate security lawsuits across the country by discussing the factors that impact the value of these cases and looking at recent reported settlements and verdicts in prior cases.
