When personal injury lawyers use the term “damages,” they’re referring to the collective losses, expenses, hardships, and suffering a victim has experienced as a result of the personal injury accident. Most commonly, there are two types of damages that are eligible for compensation under personal injury law — economic and non-economic. Calculating the total of these damages is the best way to understand what your case may be worth.
This type of loss is often referred to as “monetary damages” or “special damages” because it has a clear and provable financial value. Some examples include:
Often referred to as “general damages” or “psychological damages,” non-economic damages are losses that don’t have a clear and provable monetary value. This makes it more difficult to show evidence of non-economic damages since they are not reflected in medical bills or other proven forms of expense. Examples include:
The first step of a personal injury claim is dealing with the defendant’s insurance company. However, it’s important to remember that insurance adjusters’ main goal is to pay you as little as possible for your claim because less compensation for you means more profit for the insurance company. It’s distressing enough to deal with the emotional trauma and physical pain of a severe injury or health issue, but when you’ve also got an insurance claim to manage, it can seem overwhelming.
