Getting injured because of someone else’s carelessness isn’t just frustrating; it can turn your life upside down. From medical bills to missed work, various damages, and the stress of recovery, it’s a lot to handle. But here’s the good news: personal injury cases are here to help you get back on your feet. At Benavidez Law Firm, we’re here to guide you through the process and help you understand what you can recover.
What Can You Be Compensated For?
1. Medical Expenses
Doctor visits, hospital stays, surgeries, therapy—it all adds up fast. But we have good news: you can claim compensation for medical bills that you currently have, and you can also seek compensation for any future treatments related to your injury. That includes things like medications or specialized care you might need later.
2. Lost Wages and Future Income
If your injury keeps you from working, you shouldn’t have to stress about lost income. You can recover wages for the time you’ve already missed, as well as potential future earnings if your injury affects your ability to work long-term.
3. Pain and Suffering
Your injury doesn’t just affect your wallet—it affects your life. Pain and suffering damages cover the physical pain, emotional stress, and overall impact your injury has had on your day-to-day.
4. Property Damage
If your car or other personal belongings were damaged in the accident, you can be compensated for repair or replacement costs.
5. Punitive Damages
Sometimes, an accident isn’t just carelessness—it’s extreme negligence. In these cases, you may be awarded extra compensation, called punitive damages, to punish the wrongdoer and send a message that their behavior won’t be tolerated.
