Damages in the form of financial compensation will never replace the physical or emotional losses experienced by most individuals in a personal injury case, but financial compensation will allow the injured, or their families to begin the process of moving forward with their lives by providing the financial support lost due to medical bills, loss of limbs, brain damage, or the loss of a loved one.
Damages that can be claimed for a personal injury case include:
- All medical bills acquired as a result of the personal injury (past, future, and current)
- Physicians bills
- Prescription bills
- Medical equipment (Wheelchairs, crutches, specialty beds, etc.)
- Loss of property (i.e., vehicles, etc.)
- Prosthetics
- Loss of wages (current and future)
- Loss of career
- Home health assistants
- Rehabilitation
- Punitive damages
- Funeral expenses
If you have been injured or lost a loved one due to the negligence or recklessness of another person, you and your family deserve not only to be heard, but you deserve fair and just compensation for your injuries and the toll it has taken and will continue to take on you and your family. You also need someone on your side to fight for your rights, while you attempt to focus on dealing with the tragedy.
