Get Started on Your Claim Today
According to the California Code of Civil Procedure section 335.1, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases in California is two years. This means you have two years to file a personal injury claim or you will not be able to file your claim, losing your legal right to pursue compensation. While there are ways to extend the statute of limitations, the party filing must meet specific requirements set out by the state of California. Have questions? An attorney from our firm can let you know how the statute of limitations can affect your case. Don’t wait to file our claim! Contact us today to get started.
Damages You Can Recover in a Personal Injury Case
Damages is a legal term used to describe what injury victims can recover compensation for in a personal injury case. Generally, there are three types of damages, economic, non-economic, and punitive damages. The first two damages, also commonly called as general and special damages, are known as “compensatory damages.” This means that economic and non-economic damages are the damages responsible for compensating the injured party for as many losses as possible. These losses can include:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Lost wages due to the inability to work
- Mental anguish
- Pain and suffering
Compensatory damages are often the most talked about since they are the damages most often awarded in a personal injury case. The last type of damages, punitive damages, differ from compensatory damages in that their main purpose is to punish the at-fault party instead of compensating the injured party. Punitive damages are often very severe, as such, they are not often awarded.
