How Much Is My Personal Injury Claim Worth?
Someone hurt you, and you’ve suffered because of it. You may be dealing with painful injuries; you’ve experienced anxiety, fear, and trauma from this incident; you’ve been forced to pay out-of-pocket medical expenses for an accident you didn’t cause.
You’re well within your rights to ask this question: How much is my personal injury claim worth? No one can tell you exactly how much without reviewing your case, but let’s examine the damages you could be able to request in your injury claim.
Damages in a Personal Injury Claim
To calculate your injury claim’s true value, you will have to add up all of the monetary losses you’ve dealt with—and we do mean all of them. You should be reimbursed for all expenses you incurred as a result of an accident caused by another person’s negligence.
That means your transportation costs to and from the hospital can be paid back to you; the parking fees you paid in the parking garage; the maid you had to hire to clean your house while recovering from your injuries—all of these can be added to your injury claim.
The value of your claim is all of the monetary expenses you’ve paid, as well as some compensation for non-monetary losses. See below for a list of damages frequently requested in personal injury cases:
- All related medical costs
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish and mental health treatment
- Caregiving and household service costs
- Loss of income
- Permanent disability
- Loss of enjoyment of life
