Non-Economic Damages You Could Recover

- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Scarring and disfigurement
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of consortium

Recoverable Economic Damages
Economic damages refer to your monetary losses. They can be proven with verifiable documentation, such as pay stubs, financial records, bank statements, receipts, quotes, bills, and more. Examples of economic damages you can seek as part of your big rig accident case include:
- Medical expenses, including hospital stays, ambulance rides, and doctor’s visits
