One of the issues in any personal injury lawsuit is causation. Causation generally is the connection between an accident and the injuries. If someone is complaining of a knee injury following an accident, a picture of the knee showing it being swollen or bruised following the accident could be very helpful for a jury to make that connection between the accident and the injury. If someone goes to the hospital or to a physician shortly after an accident and the swelling or bruising is documented by the doctor, that too would be helpful on the issue but the more proof of a particular issue, the more likely a jury would generally be to accept it. Thus, it is important to note that taking pictures of any sort of bruising, swelling and cuts on your body following an accident where you may be making an insurance claim or may be suing for would be a very good idea.
