Helping You Receive Compensation for Your Injuries

Our world runs on money. Anything that affects your finances essentially affects your ability to survive. 

Injuries are about more than just your body; they are also about your bank account. When you’ve been hurt and cannot return to work, you miss income, thus getting behind on your obligations. 

Furthermore, medical treatment costs quite a bit in our country. You could spend millions of dollars to treat a serious, life-altering injury. 

A personal injury case can help you recover these expenses, plus give you more if you need it. Bailey | Stock | Harmon | Cottam | Lopez LLP is here to help you receive these damages. With over 100 years of combined experience, our team is more than capable of taking on your case.

Damages in a Personal Injury Case

The money you receive in a lawsuit compensates you for the damage you suffered, which is why it is sometimes called “damages.” Here is a list of damages you could recover in your case.

Compensatory Damages

This is money that directly pays you back for the expenses your injury caused. This includes all your medical costs. You can recover any money you paid or still need to pay for treatment. Doctors’ visits, prescriptions, therapy, surgeries, medical equipment, and more are included.

You can also be compensated for both your lost income and your lost potential income. This means you can recover money for any career advancement you missed while in recovery. 

Pain and Suffering Damages

Nothing can replace the time you lost in recovery, and no amount of money can soothe your misery. Still, a court can order a defendant to pay you for this pain and lost time. These pain and suffering damages are also called “non-economic” damages since they don’t directly pay you back for money you lost. This extra money can help make you more comfortable, especially if your injuries are life-altering.

Punitive Damages

When a defendant’s behavior is particularly, grossly negligent, the court may want to punish them. A civil court cannot put someone in jail, so it uses money as punishment. These are called punitive damages, money the defendant must pay as a penalty for their behavior.
