Compensation for Injuries in an Oakhurst Injury Crash

An Oakhurst injury crash often results in significant injuries, leaving the injured to face numerous challenges. If the collision was caused by a negligent driver, injured parties have the right to seek compensation for their losses. Recoverable damages include the following:

• Medical Expenses: Those injured can recover costs for all medical treatment related to their injuries. This may include hospital stays, ambulance services, doctor visits, prescription medications, surgical procedures, diagnostic tests, and physical therapy. If the injuries require ongoing care, compensation can also cover future medical expenses.
• Lost Wages and Earning Capacity: If the accident causes the injured party to miss work, they are entitled to compensation for lost wages, including lost benefits such as pension contributions, insurance perks, and other employment-related earnings. For those who suffer permanent disabilities, damages may cover lost income up to their expected retirement age.
• Pain and Suffering: Compensation for pain and suffering addresses physical and emotional damages from the accident. Physically, it includes discomfort, chronic pain, or limitations in mobility that significantly reduce quality of life. Emotionally, it accounts for conditions such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and the emotional burden of coping with life-altering injuries.
