What Are Damages?

The term “damages” refers to the costs that an individual has suffered as a result of an accident. Damages can be physical, psychological, emotional, or financial. Costly injuries, medical bills, lost wages from time off of work, emotional distress, and pain and suffering are all types of damages that are commonly involved in personal injury cases.

If you or someone you love has been injured in a car accident, you may be entitled to compensation for all of the damages related to your accident. To learn more about initiating a lawsuit for compensation, contact the Bronx car accident attorneys of Parker Waichman LLP today at 1-888-244-2273.
