What are Lost Wages?
A serious personal injury case, whether it relates to a car, work, or private property accident, usually means the victim of that accident will have to take some time off from work. Should the injury be more catastrophic, or cause any debilitation in potential job performance and, thereby, income, this could also become an issue. Lost wages are basically the dollar figure that cannot be made or earned as a result of an injury. And lost wages, from a legal standpoint, are considered a calculated estimate of what the injured party has already and will, most likely, lose financially on the job. These might include time not worked, loss of earning potential, and even the possibility of missing other opportunities beyond the original employer.
