If you are injured due to someone else’s negligence or wrongful conduct, you are entitled to recover past and future medical expenses. When someone is seriously injured, future medical expenses are usually significant. A person who is seriously injured may require medical care around the clock, home modifications, and numerous devices to assist with daily living.
You are also entitled to recover lost past and future earnings. Having an experienced attorney to recover for these expenses is a huge benefit for the injured person and the injured person’s family.
General damages are another component of damages in any personal injury case. A personal injury plaintiff may recover for past and future physical and emotional pain and suffering. In a case that goes to trial, the jury will be instructed that it may consider things such as: interference with normal living; interference with enjoyment of life; loss of capacity to labor and earn money; impairment of bodily health and vigor; fear of extent of injury; shock of impact; actual pain and suffering, past and future; mental anguish, past and future; and the extent to which the injured person must limit activities. Suggested Pattern Jury Instructions, Vol. I: Civil Cases, § 66.501(b) (5th ed. 2007, updated August 2018).
