Compensation an Injured Motorist Can Receive
The purpose of filing a claim or lawsuit is to deter harmful conduct and compensate injured motorists for their economic and non-economic losses the harmful conduct caused. Economic losses include:
- Medical care to treat injuries. Our clients have received money to pay for surgeries, trips to the doctor, rehabilitation, prescription drugs, therapy, and devices like wheelchairs or crutches.
- Lost wages. If a motorist cannot return to work, they should not have to suffer from a reduced income. Instead, they can receive compensation for their lost wages.
- Property damage. A motorist can receive money to repair or replace their damaged vehicle.
Our clients have also qualified for certain non-economic losses, such as:
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish
- Disability
- Disfigurement
- Loss of enjoyment of life
In the event of a death, family members may additionally receive compensation for:
- Pecuniary loss arising from the loss of the care, maintenance, support, services, advice, counsel, and reasonable contributions of a pecuniary value they would have received if the deceased had lived
- Loss of companionship and society
- Past and Future Mental Anguish
- Pain and mental anguish the deceased experienced before his death
- Medical expenses for care the deceased received as a result of his accident
- Loss of inheritance
- Funeral and burial expenses
Proving Negligence
To receive compensation for a car accident involving another driver, our clients must show that the other driver is at fault. Another term for fault is “negligence,” which means a lack of due care. Another driver can be negligent in many ways, such as:
- Driving while intoxicated or under the influence of drugs
- Driving while distracted, such as sending or reading a text message
- Driving aggressively, by tailgating, illegally passing, speeding, or cutting someone off
- Driving selfishly, by failing to yield
- Driving carelessly, by failing to look in the rearview mirror while backing up
- Driving at excessive speeds
Every car accident is different. But when a driver has behaved negligently, and has injured you in the process, you can bring a claim for compensation.
Proving a Vehicle Defect
To receive compensation for a car accident caused by a vehicle defect, or for injuries made worse by a vehicle defect, our clients must show that the vehicle or component part was defective. A vehicle defect can occur with the vehicle’s tires, seatbelts, windows, and airbags.
If you or a family member has been injured or killed as a result of a car accident involving a vehicle defect, you can bring a claim for compensation.
