How Are Accident Injury Damages Classified or Determined?

Damages are classified as either special or general. In torts, special damages are measurable prices which could be itemized such as medical expenses, lost earnings, and property settlement whereas general damages include less quantifiable costs like pain and distress, loss of consortium, the consequences of defamation, and emotional distress.

Personal injury torts cause both special and general damages.

Four things must be proven to be able to hold a party or parties legally liable for accidents so damages can be awarded:

The party had a responsibility to act reasonably according to the circumstances.
The party breached the duty.
The party’s breach of this duty caused you to be harmed.
You suffered financial damages due to the injury you suffered if the party violated its duty of care.
The total quantity of compensation for a personal injury will primarily depend on the severity of the injury. Critical injuries (such as broken bones, severed limbs, brain damage) that cause intense physical pain and suffering receive the highest injury settlements.

Aside from compensation for injuries, the injured person may get paid for the lifetime effect of the injuries. Also, lost earning ability (Future ability to learn) and future reasonably necessary medical expenses are recoverable.

In some cases, the injured may conduct her or his own companies. The quantum assessment of the loss of gains (dividing into pre-trial and post-trial) requires technical accounting experience because the forensic accountant might consider many scenarios and adopt the best estimate based on the available objective information.
