We understand that personal Injury cases are extremely sensitive and our attorneys are here to fight for you and your family.
Personal Injury lawsuits can be stressful so we want to help you understand what happens during the whole legal process. Compensatory damages are money that is rewarded to a plaintiff that can cover any damages, injury, or other costs that may have resulted from a destructive accident. This can be awarded to plaintiffs when an accident is proven to be caused by the negligence or unlawful conduct of someone else.
Punitive damages, sometimes referred to as exemplary damages, are an amount of money given to the injured party that exceeds the cost of damages and are implemented as a punishment to the responsible party in the hopes that it will prevent them from causing harm again in the future. This reward is not guaranteed and can only be considered for certain situations.
You may be asking yourself “What can I expect to get out of a personal injury lawsuit?” In Texas, the law allows anyone who has been injured by the negligence of someone else to be able to receive compensation to cover any and all medical bills or other expenses for the foreseeable future that are in relation to the damage caused. You may also be able to recover for any loss of income during the duration of your recovery. Texas also permits recovery for disability or disfigurement if caused by the collision. Recovery may also be awarded for any mental anguish, pain and suffering not only during the recovery process but for what may reasonably be anticipated in the future as well.
