Personal injury lawyers make impact on Hollywood

There's something about celebrities that we just love to admire and if we were ever confronted by one we'd most definitely be left star-struck. However, we soon discover that they're just as human as us, especially when they hit the headlines after contacting personal injury lawyers.

Yes, it seems that even celebrities need free legal advice from time to time, whether it's because they've suffered injuries as a result of somebody else's negligence or because they've injured another person themselves.

If you want a good idea of the type of accident claims that celebrities have been involved with, there are countless stories on the internet ranging from Bruce Willis to 50Cent. Here are some of the most memorable ones.

Bruce Willis
In 2004, the actor was reported to be suing Revolution Studios over an injury he sustained while making the movie Tears of the Sun.

According to the lawsuit, the Hollywood actor suffered an injury during a scene which included special effect explosions. It states that Willis endured "extreme mental, physical and emotional pain and suffering."

50Cent
You may remember seeing the rapper hit the headlines after two female fans filed a lawsuit against him following a concert in Springfield, Massachusetts. The women claimed that when 50Cent dived into the crowd to find a person who had thrown a bottle on stage, he punched out and injured them both.

Brandy
Back in early 2007, the R&B singer was involved in a serious road accident which killed a woman driver. The family of the deceased contacted a personal injury lawyer believing that their daughter's death was as a direct result of Brandy. At the end of 2007, police concluded that there was "insufficient evidence" for the jury to find the singer guilty of vehicular manslaughter.

Britney Spears
In 2005, the media announced that the pop princess was suing eight insurance companies for a total of $9.8 million, after they allegedly failed to pay out for a knee injury she sustained whilst on tour.

The singer injured her knee during a show in Moline, Illinois, and again during the filming for her video for Outrageous, which led to surgery the following day. When she filed an accident claim with her insurers, they apparently refused to payout because she did not reveal that she had sustained an earlier injury.

Well there you have it, just a quick glance over the lifestyle of the rich and famous and the occasional bouts of trouble they encounter. You never know, they may even be featured on one of those personal injury lawyer adverts in the future.
