What Are the Different Types of Damages in Personal Injury Cases?
Most personal injury cases, regardless of the type or cause of the injury, allow victims to recover compensation for the following three types of damages:
- Compensatory Damages - These are the damages that have a set monetary value and are intended to compensate victims for out-of-pocket expenses such as: Medical bills, lost income, damaged property, etc.
- General Damages - These types of damages are intended to compensate victims for losses that are harder to put a monetary value on, such as: pain and suffering, loss of consortium, loss of enjoyment, etc.
- Punitive Damages - Punitive damages are intended to punish the at-fault party for behavior that was particularly reckless or egregious. To receive punitive damages, your attorney will need to prove that the at-fault party acted in such a manner.
What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?
As your representative in your personal injury case, your injury attorney will be responsible for the following:
- Compiling evidence and building your case against the insurance company or individual responsible for your injuries
- Deposing or questioning the at-fault party to gather evidence that supports your claim
- Filing motions or any paperwork with the court to ensure your case continues to move forward in a timely manner
- Communicating with the insurance company on your behalf to negotiate a fair settlement
- Keeping your informed about the legal process, where your case stands, and what your options are
- Representing you in court if the insurance company is unwilling to offer a fair settlement outside of court
