What damages can I pursue in a personal injury claim?

A personal injury claim often covers both economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages include medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and lost wages from missed work. Non-economic damages cover the harder-to-measure effects, like physical pain, emotional trauma, and reduced quality of life. In wrongful death claims, family members may also pursue damages for funeral costs, loss of companionship, and future financial support. Each personal injury case is unique, so the specific damages available depend on the injuries sustained and the impact on the victim’s life.
