Getting injured in a car accident can lead to both physical and emotional distress. Your life may never return to normal, and on top of that, you may feel the financial burden of medical expenses weighing you down.

When investigating your case, we’ll be sure to examine all damages and maximize your claim value so that you can recover without any financial stress.

Recovery of Damages in a Car Crash Claim

When trying to calculate your car accident settlement, your attorney will take into account much more than just your initial medical bills. Economic and non-economic damages will be examined, which include monetary expenses and the effect that the accident has had on your lifestyle.

Economic damages can include medical expenses, property damages, and loss of future income, while non-economic damages may include pain and suffering, scarring and disfigurement, loss of enjoyment of life, emotional distress, and loss of consortium.

While it’s rare, the negligent driver may also be required to pay punitive damages if it can be proved that they caused harm intentionally or if the judge wants to make an example out of the case at hand.
