When an individual in Ciprés files a personal injury claim in California, they are typically seeking monetary compensation, otherwise known as damages, to cover the costs of the harm they have suffered. In Cypress, an injured individual has the right to seek the following kinds of damages after suffering a personal injury accident:

• Daños económicos. These damages are those which can be assigned a tangible, monetary value. They tend to represent the out-of-pocket expenses you have had to deal with because of the negligence or reckless behavior of another party. These damages typically include any past, present, or future medical costs related to the injury and the loss of any income or your future ability to earn a living wage.In certain casos de lesiones personales, such as accidentes automovilísticos or motorcycle accidents, you may also be awarded damages for any harm done to your vehicle and the cost of repairs or replacement. In California, there is no limit to the amount of economic compensation you may seek.
• Daños no económicos. In some cases, certain damages may exist that cannot be tangibly valued. For example, the victim of a car accident might develop depression or anxiety, which can impact their overall quality of life. In these cases, non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering or loss of the enjoyment of life, are designed to compensate the victim for any emotional or psychological trauma they have suffered.In California, there is no set limit to the amount of non-economic damages you can seek, except in cases of medical malpractice.
• Daños punitivos. Unlike non-economic or economic damages, which are used to compensate the victim for the traumas and losses they have suffered, punitive damages are used to punish the liable party for any especially egregious behavior or misconduct. A majority of Cypress’ personal injury claims will not include punitive damages, as they require more proof than that required for simple negligence claims.In California, punitive damages are only awarded when it can be demonstrated that the liable party acted with specific malice, oppression, or fraud. However, when they are available to personal injury claimants, the amounts can be quite substantial.
• Indemnización por homicidio culposo. When an individual dies as a result of their injuries or directly during the course of a personal injury accident, certain members of their family, such as a spouse or child, have the ability to file a claim for wrongful death damages. These damages usually take the form of economic damages and can include compensation for lost wages or medical bills that the family suffered prior to death and funeral costs.

When you work with the team at Easton & Easton, we can review your case and the injuries you suffered and work to calculate the amount of compensation you may be entitled to receive in settlement. Remember, the more severe the injuries sustained, the higher your compensation will most likely be. The most common injuries sustained in personal injury accidents, and those that will impact your recoverable damages, include:

• Huesos rotos y fracturas
• Erupción en la carretera o “Road rash”.
• Severe chemical or thermal burns
• Traumatismos faciales o lesiones oculares
• Distensiones musculares o esguinces
• Lesiones de la médula espinal.
• Lesiones cerebrales traumáticas
• Head, shoulder, neck, or back injuries
• Parálisis
• Hemorragia interna

Easton & Easton can review all medical records from your accident and determine the overall worth of your personal injury accident settlement.

Most successful personal injury claims will need to demonstrate the following elements:

• El demandado le debía un deber de diligencia.
• That duty was breached through negligence or reckless behavior.
• Your suffered injuries as a result of this breach of duty.
• The damages you are now facing are directly due to your injuries and the breach of duty.

While you are not required by law to have an attorney on your side who can demonstrate these truths on your behalf, they can prove essential to the success of your overall claim. An attorney has the knowledge and resources needed to investigate your accident, gain further evidence, and interview potential eyewitnesses to the accident to ensure you recover the compensation you are owed for the damages you have suffered.

In almost every case of personal injury, the defendant will simply not admit to liability. It must be proven. This can be a difficult task to take on by yourself, especially if you do not have experience in this field of law or the education that many attorneys have supporting them. With Easton & Easton on your side, you can rest assured that we can do everything in our power to secure the compensation and justice you deserve.
