What You Should Know About Personal Injuries

A personal injury is any injury that affects your physical or mental wellbeing. You can sustain such injuries from any number of accidents, such as those involving:

Incidents like these can cause devastating injuries, such as:

And these injuries, as you well know, can wreak havoc on your health, your family, and your finances. You may have even lost a loved one due to an accident.

We understand how stressful and upsetting your situation is. Not only do you have to deal with the physical and psychological consequences of your injury or loss, but you are also worried about how you will support your family, both now and in the future.

The Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe, LLP wants to help you in this fight. Call us at (866) 878-6774. The sooner you call us, the sooner we can get to work.

You Have the Right to Seek Compensation

Claimants can recover damages even if they are partially responsible for the accident. However, according to New York Civil Practice Law & Rules CVP §1411, the amount they can receive may be limited. You might find it helpful to hire a lawyer to go over your case. They will figure out how much compensation you qualify for and what laws to consider when filing your lawsuit.

The following are just a few examples of the type of damages you could be entitled to.

Non-Economic Damages

We know that your injury has turned your life upside-down and may impact you for a long time. However, you can seek non-economic damages for:

  • Scarring or disfigurement that irreparably alters your appearance. It may even cause you physical pain or make using the affected body part more difficult.
  • Pain and suffering that causes you physical distress (e.g., chronic pain) or emotional anguish (e.g., post-traumatic stress disorder)
  • Diminished quality of life that stems from your inability to live independently or engage in activities that you once loved
  • Loss of society or companionship that stems from the pain of losing a loved one in the accident

Economic Damages

Personal injuries can be very expensive. You might have had to pay:

  • Medical bills for treatments such as surgery, physical therapy, follow-up appointments, and more
  • Repair bills for fixing or replacing a damaged motor vehicle
  • Funeral bills for laying your loved one to rest
  • Other related bills for the expense of hiring someone to perform your usual chores, like childcare or housework

Your injury might have been so severe that you had to take time off work. This prevented you from earning money that would help you pay the bills mentioned above. You might even have had to sacrifice your career because your injuries will not allow you to work in your chosen field. You can sue for all of these things.

A lawyer might be able to identify some losses that you had not considered. Below is a more detailed list of how a lawyer can help you get the compensation you and your family need.
