• Trip and fall due to potholes: Some individuals can experience significant injuries, such as head injuries and concussions, after slip and fall accidents. For those who are unable to work due to an injury, benefits can be pursued for income loss as well as pain and suffering. It is important to seek legal advice from a personal injury lawyer to determine the extent of compensation available as a result of the accident. This is particularly vital in cases of negligence.
• TORT claim and pain and suffering damages: In the event of a car accident due to the fault of another driver, those who have suffered injuries can pursue benefits. In some circumstances, if injuries are serious enough and permanent, individuals can be entitled to TORT damages from the at-fault driver’s insurance. Pain and suffering damages will depend on the severity of the injuries and the impact on daily life.
• Economic loss damages: There are many aspects under the category of economic losses. A retained personal injury lawyer will determine the specific financial losses as a result of an accident and subsequent injuries. Students and apprentices can also pursue economic losses as their potential job prospects can be affected.
