Fighting for the full recovery you deserve after an accident

A car accident can change your life in an instant. All of a sudden, you are left with overwhelming medical bills and physical injuries that can leave you incapacitated for a long time. What can you do at this point? How will you pick up the pieces and move forward when you cannot even manage the bills that are coming in? Thankfully, there could be legal options available to you.

If your accident was the result of the negligent or reckless actions of another person, you could have grounds to pursue compensation through a personal injury claim. This option allows West Virginia victims to claim rightful restitution and pursue what they need for recovery. If you are pursuing this option, you would be wise to learn about the specific types of compensation and damages that may be available to you.

Medical bills 

One type of damages you may be able to seek through your claim is coverage of your medical bills. Emergency medical care is expensive, as are ambulance rides, surgery, rehabilitation and therapy. You not only need to recover your losses associated with the bills you are currently facing, but you may also want to get what you need for your long-term needs.

Emotional and mental duress

A car accident can cause you to suffer in ways you may not be able to see. This includes your mental trauma and the non-economic losses you may be dealing with, both of which can take a significant toll on your life. This may be because of loss of ability, loss of companionship, loss of enjoyment of life and other things that are causing you mental and emotional harm.

Lost wages from missed work

It can be expensive to miss work. After days, weeks or months of missed paychecks, you may start to notice the financial strain. This adds up quickly, especially when it leaves you unable to pay your bills, take care of your needs and even pay your mortgage. You may seek recovery of the income you missed when you were home or in the hospital recovering. 

Don’t leave money on the table

You don’t want to leave money on the table when it comes to your post-accident recovery. Starting with a complete assessment of your case, one of the first steps you will want to take is learn about the specific damages available to you. Evaluating your losses can allow you to understand what you can fight for through the civil claims process.
