Types of Damages in Personal Injury Lawsuits

  • Economic Damages
    Examples of items that fall under the category of economic damages include medical bills and property damage. There is usually a receipt, bill, invoice, or other tangible evidence demonstrating the value of these injuries. Another important part of economic damages is lost wages.
  • Non-Economic Damages
    Things like physical pain, mental distress, or lost agency in life do not have a bill, receipt, or price tag. However, the court understands that these things are valuable and seriously affect the plaintiff, so you and Curry Law can explain the worth of these damages to the judge and jury in your lawsuit filings and during your trial.
  • Punitive Damages
    Instead of being based on your condition, they are based on the egregious conduct of the defendant. You have to ask for punitive damages in the initial filing of your case, and you also have to prove more than that the defendant was negligent. Often, you have to establish that the defendant set out to cause you harm instead of merely just being careless. Courts do not award punitive damages often, so you should speak closely with Curry Law if you intend to seek them in your lawsuit.
