Brain damage can be catastrophic and lead to a long recovery. Recovery from these types of injuries can be costly. If the actions of another person caused your brain damage, our attorneys could help. We advocate for our clients to receive compensation for their injuries.
Brain injuries can cause extensive damage and a financial toll. An attorney can help after you or a loved one suffers from brain damage. Our Dayton brain damage lawyers can help you recover compensation for your losses. Our Dayton Personal Injury Lawyer is ready to support you through this challenging time.
How Much Could My Brain Damage Case Be Worth?
Each brain damage case is different, making it difficult to estimate the average compensation. The circumstances of your case are taken into account when calculating the value of your claim. Our attorneys can review your case and determine the value of damages you could recover.
Recoverable Damages
Recoverable damages are the amount of money a court requires someone to pay to make up for injuring someone. An individual can file a lawsuit against someone to recoup compensation for economic and non-economic damages.
Economic damages include verified monetary losses. Non-economic damages include subjective, non-monetary losses. Since non-economic damages don’t have an exact monetary amount associated with them, they can be more difficult to calculate. Our attorneys can help you calculate the value of your non-economic damages.
Economic and non-economic damages you could recover include:
- Medical bills: Any medical bills related to the injury-causing brain damage can be included in your claim. This includes ongoing medical care, hospital stays, rehabilitation, surgeries, and medications.
- Loss of enjoyment: Brain damage can cause severe impacts on someone’s quality of life. If your enjoyment of life has been negatively affected because of your injury, it can be included in your claim.
- Lost wages and earning capacity: If you had to be out of work after sustaining brain damage, you could recoup those costs. If you cannot return to work because of the severity of brain damage, you could seek compensation because your future earning ability is diminished.
- Pain and suffering: If the injury causing brain damage causes pain to you or your loved one, you could receive monetary compensation. This includes pain, discomfort, anguish, inconvenience, and emotional trauma accompanying the injury.
Speak with a lawyer from our firm to calculate the value of your recoverable damages. It is important to hold the person who caused your brain damage accountable for their actions. You deserve to receive compensation for everything you or your loved one lost due to brain damage.
