Damages You Can Recover with an Auto Accident Claim

Auto accident claims allow innocent victims a chance to recover compensation for a wide variety of expenses, including:

  • Medical bills
  • The number of medical expenses auto accidents often face after collisions can be staggering. Everything from ambulance rides and hospital stays to surgeries and prescription medications can add up to a total that many families simply can’t afford.

    However, when the accident was caused by another driver’s negligence, it’s possible to recover some or all of the money you need to pay for your medical bills by filing a claim for compensation. An experienced attorney can determine how much money you currently owe and will owe in the future for things like physical therapy and rehabilitation and create a claim that gets you the money you deserve.

  • Lost wages
  • Significant medical bills after car accidents are often even more financially disruptive due to the fact that many victims become too injured to go back to work or continue doing the work they did before their accident.

    If your car accident left you disabled or in too much pain to continue working, your attorney can investigate your current lost wages and also determine how much money you stand to lose in the future due your injuries. Then, he will add that amount to your claim for compensation. Losing your job due to an injury shouldn’t mean losing your livelihood and your ability to provide for your family.

  • Vehicle repair costs
  • Repairing damaged or totaled vehicles isn’t cheap. Most vehicles that require extensive engine work and body repairs can cost thousands of dollars to repair—and that’s money you may not have, especially if you’re too hurt to work. An attorney can help you get the compensation you need to either purchase a new vehicle or get your old vehicle back on the road as soon as possible.

  • Pain and suffering
  • Car accidents don’t just physical injuries—they can also cause mental and emotional pain. Many car accident victims experience anxiety, depression, and even develop a fear of driving or riding in vehicles altogether. These conditions are greatly reduce your quality of life and often require extensive therapy to overcome. You should be compensated for these accident-related issues, and your attorney will take these conditions into consideration when building your damages claim.
