This article will help plaintiffs know what damages are used to calculate the value of a personal injury claim.
Personal injuryclaims are valued based on a number of different factors. One of the factors taken into account is the plaintiff’s economic damages sometimes referred to as special damages. Special damages include medical bills, lost earnings and all other monetary losses resulting from the accident. These damages are usually easy to prove because they can be supported with documentation such as medical bills.
In contrast non-economic damages sometimes referred to as general damages are much harder to prove and usually require some degree of legal skill in order to maximize recovery. General damages include physical or emotional pain and suffering, loss of companionship, loss of consortium, disfigurement, loss or impairment of mental or physical capacity and loss of enjoyment of life.
Since it is hard to prove general damages without experience or legal expertise it is advised that you seek the assistance of a qualified attorneywhen dealing with general damages.
