When someone has been injured or damaged by the negligence of someone else, they can make a claim for monetary compensation. The person making the claim for damages in a case is known as the Plaintiff. The person or company who the claim is against is known as the Defendant. A plaintiff's lawyer is a lawyer who generally represents plaintiffs in cases.
