When you are injured in an accident and awarded damages, there are several different types of damages you may be entitled to. Two types of damages you may be entitled to in California are compensatory and punitive damages.
While compensatory damages are meant to compensate a plaintiff for their injuries, punitive damages are meant to punish the defendant and deter others from engaging in similar behavior in the future.
