Accurately tallying your personal injuries can also be a complex process. Tangible personal injury expenses like the income you lose while you are in the hospital or recuperating at home can be relatively simple to calculate. Intangible personal injuries like pain and suffering can be much more difficult to assign a monetary value to. Adding up the value of future income you have not earned yet and physical, mental, and emotional anguish that might not be as readily visible as bruises and broken bones can be tricky on your own. A lawyer may be able to help you value these portions of your claim and ensure they, too, are covered by the at-fault driver.
