What Kinds Of Damages Are You Entitled To Receive?

Compass Law Group attorneys are well-aware of how life-altering serious or catastrophic injuries are. Beyond economic compensatory damages for expenditures you have made and will no doubt continue to make, the law entitles you to non-economic damages for the intangible, but very real, losses you are now forced to bear. Depending on your individual circumstances, we will work hard to see that you receive damages for:

Medical and rehabilitation costs

At-home or inpatient nursing care

Lost income, present and future

Lost property

Alterations to make your home accessible

Psychological counseling

Pain and suffering

Scarring and disfigurement

Permanent disability

Loss of consortium

Loss of enjoyment of life

If you have lost a loved one to wrongful death as the result of the accident, we know we cannot undo the tragedy. We will, however, fight, both in and out of the courtroom, to win you final medical expenses, funeral costs, and a settlement for your loss of financial and emotional support.

If the court finds the conduct of the person who harmed you particularly egregious, for example if that conduct includes extreme disregard for human life, intentional malice, or illegal actions, you may also be awarded punitive damages. Punitive damages serve two purposes: to punish especially atrocious behavior and to discourage others from engaging in it.

What Will Compass Law Group Attorneys Do For You?

We know all too well that terrible injuries have terrible consequences. Clearly, in your present state you may be unable to do much more than worry. That's why we are dedicated to lifting the burden of logistical chores from you and doing what we do best: taking the steps toward legal justice for you and your family. To accomplish this we will:

Interact directly with opposing attorneys and insurance companies

File all necessary forms promptly

Investigate the site of your accident and photograph relevant details

Examine police records and medical reports

Investigate to find out whether the defendant has any prior history of similar misconduct

Interview witnesses

Consult with experts in relevant fields who may testify on your behalf

Keep you posted about any important developments in your case

Even though we will be careful to keep you in the loop, we will respect your privacy. We know that your primary job now is to heal from your deep physical and emotional wounds and adjust to the changes in your lifestyle. For this reason, we will only contact you when necessary and, of course, in response to any of your questions or concerns.
