If you've been injured due to someone else's negligence, understanding the types of damages you can claim is crucial in getting the compensation you deserve. In this video, local personal injury attorney, Mickey Johnson, explains the economic and non-economic claims you have in personal injury cases.

Economic Damages

Economic damages can be quantified through medical bills, lost wages and any estimates on future medical treatments you may need due to your injuries.

Non-Economic Damages

Non-economic damages include pain and suffering, emotional distress and any long-term impact the accident had on your quality of life.

A personal injury attorney can help calculate the full extent of your damages and ensure you receive fair compensation. Since non-economic damages can be more challenging to quantify, having legal representation can be key in making sure your suffering is properly accounted for.
