Lost Wages
Whether you were involved in a car accident, slip and fall, or dog bite, there are likely going to be damages in your case that cause you to lose money. That is the main motivation behind receiving economic damages.
One of the most common ways people lose money is from missing time at work and losing wages. You might be forced to take time from work if you need to recover or you cannot perform the tasks that you need to because of your injuries.
You are entitled to all of your lost wages.
Medical Bills
When you are injured, your money likely is going to medical bills. We aim to give you compensation for these medical bills because damages are meant to remedy your losses in injury cases.
There are a lot of people who have had serious financial issues because of unexpected medical bills. These economic damages can be devastating is particular if you are also not able to go to work.
Lost wages plus medical bills can equal severe financial duress.
Loss of Earning Potential
Depending on the injuries that you suffered, you may not be able to return to the same kind of work that you did before you got hurt. Whether you cannot perform tasks, or you have been disabled from your accident, it can be financially devastating for you and your family. It is difficult to cope with this reality. You deserve compensation for these economic damages.
The way this works is you are entitled to the loss of earning power that you had before the accident for the duration of your career in your job. This will vary from person to person.
