Workplace Accident Case
Plaintiffs and Defendants
Plaintiffs and Defendants in a Texas Lawsuit Information by Attorney Michael Grossman
The plaintiff and the defendant are the two principle parties in a lawsuit. The plaintiff is the victim in the accident and he or she is seeking compensation from the defendant through a lawsuit. The defendant, of course, is the party being sued and held as liable for the plaintiff’s injuries, according to the plaintiff.
Some personal injury suits contain multiple plaintiffs or defendants. For instance, if a commercial bus collides with a passenger vehicle, multiple bus passengers might be injured. They could all be plaintiffs. They might wish to bring a case against the bus driver and the driver of the other vehicle, in which case there would be multiple defendants.
A plaintiff should name all the defendants of his or her case as early as possible. After a certain point, the plaintiff may lose the right to seek compensation from some parties.

A young woman suffered a back injury that required corrective surgery following a boating accident. The boat in question sped out of control and crashed into a landmass, throwing our client from the boat, as the result of a stuck throttle. Upon inspection of the boat, it was determined that a poor design led to the malfunction and a product liability lawsuit was brought against the manufacturer. The defendants argued that the boat was inappropriately piloted, however, the physical evidence depicted the cause of the accident quite clearly and the case was successfully resolved.
