Personal Injury Compensation

What is an Injury Worth?
A Guide to Personal Injury Compensation

To understand personal injury compensation, you’ll need to understand the concept of damages. Monetary damages are intended to put you in the same position you would have been in if the accident had not occurred. While an injury cannot be undone, the purpose is to try to put the victim in as close to a “normal” position as possible.

What types of things are covered by monetary damages? Financial costs are generally covered under damage awards. Hence, medical bills and lost wages from time away from work are two types of costs generally covered. In addition, if an injury causes a long-term loss in earning ability, those costs will be covered as well.

Monetary damages also attempt to correct for quality-of-life changes. The loss of a limb or similar permanent injury may result in a reduction of quality-of-life for an injured person. Damages attempt to pay for this loss of life quality. They can also compensate an injured person for pain and suffering.

Punitive Damages

Finally, some injured people will receive punitive damages as part of their compensation for a personal injury. Punitive damages are available in some cases. This form of compensation occurs when the person who caused the harm engaged in such reckless manner that the court wants to punish them.

The personal injury attorneys at Kane & Vital know the ins-and-outs of personal injury law. They can provide you with a realistic assessment of the type of compensation associated with the type of injury you experienced. They will also be able to negotiate on your behalf to ensure that you get sufficient funds to handle your injuries.
