What Types of Damages Can I Recover in a Car Crash Case?

In a Pensacola car crash case, you can typically recover your economic damages (medical bills, lost wages, property damage, etc.) against the at fault party for their share of fault.  If you sustain a permanent injury in Northwest Florida, you may also recover non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, etc.) against the at-fault party for their share of fault.

Recoverable damages may include:

Economic Damages:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Property damage

Non-economic Damages:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Loss of enjoyment of life

The American Bar Association explains that personal injury damages are intended to compensate injured individuals for financial losses and the broader human impact of an injury.
