What Is Pain & Suffering in Personal Injury?

Posted By Ed Womac || 10-Feb-2017

When you are injured in an accident, it can affect your life in many ways. Some people may experience permanent injuries and extreme pain. This pain may make it difficult for them to enjoy their normal life activities. In these cases, an injury victim may be able to recover monetary compensation for their pain and suffering.

Clients who experience the following may be eligible for pain and suffering damages:

  • Physical pain
  • Emotional distress
  • Mental anguish
  • PTSD
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Insomnia
  • Disfigurement
  • Extreme humiliation and embarrassment

How Can I Recover Pain & Suffering in My Injury Claim?

Accurately calculating personal injury damages can be complex, so we recommend that you work with a personal injury lawyer to help you determine the fair value of your case.

In general, a claim for pain and suffering can include the following evidence:

  • Medical records
  • Daily journal that documents any obstacles you now face as a result of your injury
  • Medication prescribed to alleviate the effects of injuries caused by the accident
