Victims may win a variety of awards after a slip and fall accident. Plaintiffs can pursue compensation for medical bills, wage loss, and “non-economic damages,” including pain, embarrassment, disability, and emotional distress. Every case is different, and amounts range from thousands to millions of dollars depending on the circumstances of the accident. Other factors include the costs involved, the seriousness and permanence of the injury, your age, earning capacity, family status, whether you can return to work, and whether comparative fault comes into play.
