When you are injured through the negligence of another person or company, you may want to meet with a Naperville attorney at The Law Offices of Konrad Sherinian about what type of damages you can claim in your lawsuit. There are many different types to consider, especially when it comes to the exact nature of the incident. Since your case is unique, contacting a Chicago attorney to learn about each can help you build your lawsuit with more confidence.
Types of Damages
Once your Naperville attorney examines your case, we can likely explain the spectrum of damages under the law and which ones apply to your specific circumstances. There are several common types that fall under the blanket of personal injury:
Compensatory damages
Punitive damages
Wrongful death damages
The kind of damages you pursue will likely depend on whether you want your medical bills covered or are seeking compensation for long-term issues that stem from your injury.
Choosing Damages
Your Chicago attorney from The Law Offices of Konrad Sherinian can help you choose which damages to pursue before you file your case. For example, if your spouse was riding a bike and was struck and killed by a driver who was on a cell phone, you may be able to seek both wrongful death and punitive damages, which are handed down to punish those who were especially neglectful or reckless in their actions.
As a Naperville attorney can explain during a consultation, wrongful death damages can include the cost of a funeral, medical bills incurred before death and any emotional distress you may be experiencing as a result of your spouse's death.
