Types Of Damages In Illinois Personal Injury Claims
If you have been injured due to another party’s negligence, you may be entitled to substantial compensation for the losses you have endured. In Illinois personal injury claims, damages are typically categorized as either economic or noneconomic, and the types of damages awarded will depend on the severity of the accident and the resulting injuries.
Economic damages are tangible losses that can be assigned a monetary value. These damages are intended to reimburse injured victims for the financial burdens caused by an accident. Types of economic damages can include:
- Medical expenses: This encompasses current and future costs associated with medical care such as hospital stays, surgeries, medications, physical therapy and assistive devices.
- Lost wages: Injuries often lead to missed workdays. Compensation can cover the wages lost due to time spent recovering and any loss of earning capacity if the injury impacts your ability to work in the future.
- Property damage: If your personal property, such as a car, was damaged in the accident, you may be eligible to recover repair or replacement costs.
The economic-based compensation you receive aims to restore you financially to where you were prior to the accident.
In contrast, noneconomic damages compensate for losses that are more subjective and not easily quantifiable. They are intended to reflect the emotional and psychological toll of the injury and may include:
- Pain and suffering: Accounts for physical pain and emotional distress caused by the accident and its aftermath
- Loss of life enjoyment: Addresses the injury’s impact on your ability to engage in activities you once enjoyed
- Emotional distress: Compensates you for often severe anxiety, depression or other mental health impacts your injury causes
Knowing about the various types of compensation can help you make certain your claim reflects the extent and severity of your injuries. Partnering with our experienced Chicago injury team can strengthen your claim even more.
