You can sue for loss of consortium in Florida if you or a loved one was injured or killed in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence. It is typically one of the recoverable damages in a personal injury or wrongful death case. Loss of consortium is considered a non-economic or intangible loss. As such, it can be challenging to assign a monetary value.
If a personal injury attorney represents you, they can help you understand how loss of consortium and other non-economic damages are assessed. Additional non-economic damages in your case may include pain and suffering, mental and emotional anguish, and diminished quality of life.
