Emotional Distress and Personal Injury Claims

Many individuals involved in traumatic incidents can suffer from emotional distress following these actions.  When this emotional suffering is caused by another person, you may have a cause of action against them for emotional distress.  There are many types of actions that can cause this distress, including such things as, but not limited to:

• Assault & Battery
• Dog Bites
• Kidnapping
• False Imprisonment
• Defamation of Character

The effects of emotional distress on a person can lead to many negative consequences in their lives.  The mental anguish can lead to depression, anxiety, grief, feelings of fear, humiliation and embarrassment.  A person can even develop general pain in different body parts because of the stress. These effects can further impact the person's life in such ways as an inability to work, ruined relationships, as well as a lowering of  their quality of life overall.  If you or someone you know is suffering from emotional distress caused by another's actions contact our office for a free consultation with a Des Moines personal injury attorney.  Our caring legal staff will speak with you confidentially and find out what your legal options are.
