What Damages Can Be Compensated?
When you’re injured because of someone else’s negligence, the law allows you to pursue compensation for a wide range of damages, including:
- Medical expenses (current and future)
- Lost wages and reduced earning potential
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Property damage
- Rehabilitation and therapy costs
- Funeral and burial costs in wrongful death cases
Every case is different. At AutoAccident.com, we take the time to evaluate the full impact of your injury, physically, emotionally, and financially.
When Can You Sue After an Accident?
If you were hurt due to someone else’s carelessness or a defective product, or if your work-related injuries are not being covered properly by workers’ compensation, you may have a valid personal injury case.
You can sue after an accident if:
- Someone else’s negligence directly caused your injuries
- A product or piece of equipment failed and injured you
- You were injured in a public or private space due to unsafe conditions
- You were injured at work and have a claim outside of workers’ compensation
California has strict statutes of limitations for personal injury claims, so it’s important to speak with a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after an accident.
