Damages in a Personal Injury Lawsuit
The value of any personal injury lawsuit that the Makarone Law Firm legal firm handles comes down to a single word – “damages” or the emotional, mental, and physical cost of the victim’s injuries. These are known as “compensatory” or “economic” damages. Compensatory damages are intended to make the victim financially whole again and put them into the position they would have been in had they not been injured in the accident
Damages are classified in two categories –
Economic And Non-economic. Economic Damages Are Those That Have A Monetary Value Such As:
- Attendant care
- Home maintenance expenses
- Home maintenance expenses
- Home maintenance expenses
- Occupational therapy
- Potential loss of earnings
- Property loss
- Rehabilitative therapy
- Other out-of-pocket expenses
With non-economic damages, it is difficult to place a dollar value on them. The more common non-economic damages in a personal injury lawsuit include emotional distress, loss of relationship, pain and suffering, etc. On rare occasions, there may be “punitive” damages awarded in a personal injury lawsuit. Punitive damages are intended to punish the at-fault party when their actions or behavior that caused your injuries were especially egregious. They are also intended to act as a deterrent and prevent them from causing harm to anyone again in the future. The Makarone Law Firm personal injury lawyer that is assigned to your case will evaluate your case and determine what it is worth in terms of damages and compensation.
