- Medical expenses
All medical expenses not covered by insurance should be compensated. This includes medical services such as surgery and doctor visits, as well as nursing expenses and prescription drug costs.
- Rehabilitation expenses
Ongoing rehabilitation expenses such as nursing, physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy and other rehabilitation expenses provided by your medical professional at home; these expenses may be reimbursable.
- Out-of-pocket expenses
If you spend on childcare, cleaning aids, drivers or other support staff that you did not need before the injury, these expenses are generally reimbursable. You may also receive compensation for expenses that may arise in the future.
- Loss of wages
Loss of income due to unemployment, expected hours out of service, reduction of work hours and loss of income due to occupational changes caused by injury should be compensated.
- Pain and suffering
Missing school, participating in social activities and vacations can compensate you. Embarrassment, physical pain and pain caused by physical disability or disfigurement caused by the accident will also be compensated.
Without the necessary legal representatives, it can be difficult for personal injury victims to fully estimate their potential compensation. For example, certain compensable losses are subjective, however, although pain and suffering are not easy to quantify, an expert attorney can help you estimate a reasonable amount of pain and suffering.
If you are at fault for the accident, the above compensation may be reduced, insurance companies and courts generally assign you responsibility for personal injuries in a certain proportion. In other words, compensation will be reduced according to the percentage of your responsibility. For example, if you assume 30% responsibility for a car accident because you answer the phone and do not pay attention while driving, your negligent behavior will reduce your compensation by 30%.
Remember that compensation for personal injury damages is intended to restore a person to their financial condition before the accident. Although lawsuits cannot eliminate the physical and emotional pain of injured victims or their survivors, lawsuits can alleviate the economic pain that victims and their families may suffer.
All jurisdictions in the United States allow plaintiffs with valid cases to seek damages in state courts. Although the amount that should be awarded in individual cases may vary in each jurisdiction, in most jurisdictions some common types of damages are allowed, such as those we saw earlier.
