Maximizing Your Economic and Non-Economic Damages
One of the defining characteristics of the personal injury attorneys at Elegal is their ability to identify and maximize both economic and non-economic damages. That not only requires experience and legal knowledge, but also a vast network of experts. Since the cases we handle involve catastrophic injuries and death, we work with these experts on a regular basis.
Experts Needed to Determine Economic Damages
Permanently injured clients and their family members require economic loss experts to calculate and determine what you or a family member has lost. Lost income, benefits and services must be calculated. Loss of earning capacity in the future must be identified. Future medical and living expenses must be determined with the help of life care planners.
Placing Value on Non-Economic Damages
Non-economic losses include the pain and suffering of a victim or the emotional impact of a fatal accident on a family. Permanent disfigurements and disabilities and the loss of a loved one are hard to value. No amount of money can reverse the effects of an accident or death of a family member, But that does not mean that the negligent should not be held accountable. We have the expertise to show the jury how to determine the sums that should be awarded.
