Rules on personal injury or tort may vary from one jurisdiction to another. Those which are regarded as common law are made by judges while statutory laws dealing with personal injury are made by the legislative branch of the government consisting of the House of Representative and the Senate.

Tort is generally categorized into three, namely:

• Intentional tort

• Negligent tort

• Strict liability

Intentional tort exists when the injury done to a person was willfully and intentionally imputed to the person such as battery, assault, intentional infliction of emotional distress, among others.

Negligent tort, on the other hand, occurs when there is failure to exercise diligence and due care. Rule of the thumb is if a person fails to exercise the care that a reasonable, prudent person would exercise under the same circumstances, the person is considered negligent and he will generally be held liable to another who suffers the direct result of his negligence.

Negligence is shown in cases of the following, among others:

• car accidents

• wrongful death

• premise liability

• construction accidents

In the case of strict liability, the liability of the person at fault attaches to him regardless of whether or not he has been negligent. The liability on this one does not depend on the degree of care the person exercises. It would suffice that he has done an act which caused damage to another. Common example of the application of strict liability is in cases of product liability.

Not all personal injury is instituted in civil suits. Some tortuous act can also be subject of criminal cases when the injury or harm constitutes felony under criminal law. But ideally, tort deals with personal injury and provides for compensation for damages to discourage others from doing the same.
