What Types of Damages Can I Recover Through a Personal Injury Claim?
Injury victims typically underestimate the financial and personal losses they will experience following an accident. Because of this, it is critical to have a legal representative help you calculate the value of your claim.
In most personal injury cases, accident victims can hope to recover both “economic” and “non-economic” financial damages. Economic damages compensate for direct monetary losses, while non-economic damages repay victims for their traumatic experiences.
Some examples of financial damages resulting from construction accident cases include:
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of wages and income
- Current and past associated medical bills
- Decreased quality of life
- Associated property damage
- Emotional trauma and distress
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Loss of quality of life
- Anticipated future medical care costs
- Inability to earn income long-term
- And more
When you consult with one of the legal experts at the firm of Morgan and Morgan, we will help you seek maximum financial recovery. You should not be burdened with the losses from an accident caused by another person’s negligent actions.
What Is the Statute of Limitations on Injury Claims in Brooklyn?
In the state of New York, personal injury victims must file a lawsuit seeking damages within three years of the inciting incident. This time limit is known as the “statute of limitations.”
Claims filed after three years are unlikely to be successful. If your injury results in a workers’ compensation claim, you must file for benefits within two years of the inciting accident.
