Regardless of the type of personal injury accident, anyone harmed by another person’s careless actions has the right to seek compensation. While anyone may file a claim, you must prove the other party’s liability and how your injuries result from the accident.
To prove fault, you must show that:
These points are vague as they have to cover a wide range of types of personal injury incidents, and it can make gathering these elements challenging and complex for one not familiar with the law. A personal injury lawyer will guide you through the process every step of the way.
The damages in a personal injury accident refer to everything you lost because of the event. When you file a personal injury claim, you seek to recover monetary compensation for your losses. Understanding how much compensation you should receive is essential. Consider the three elements to calculate your losses:
Economic damages are losses a judge or court is able to verify through monetary receipts after an accident, including:
After an accident, you’ll want to gather receipts for any expenses or lost income you suffer. Keeping track of your bills and making copies of important information may significantly increase your chances of recovering the compensation you deserve.
Some personal injury damages have no monetary receipts or documentation. While these are challenging to prove and require extensive research, that doesn’t mean they aren’t important and deserve to be considered when calculating losses. The following are examples of non-economic damages you may recover compensation for:
In some cases, non-economic damages may cause more of an impact than monetary ones. The trauma you suddenly experience may cause mental injuries like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which makes it challenging for you to get back into a vehicle. These changes and injuries must clearly be considered when calculating your losses.
When an accident results from extreme levels of negligence, a judge may use the liable individual as an example and place punitive damages on them to act as punishment and deter others from making the same mistakes. These damages are rare but still occur if the accident is extremely harmful.
There’s a lot that goes into calculating your damages. With an experienced personal injury lawyer, you’ll have representatives that may accurately calculate and determine your eligible compensation.
Filing a personal injury accident claim is more complex than it looks and requires years of training to understand fully.
