There are two types of damages in a bus crash lawsuit; economic damages and non-economic damages. Economic damages have an inherent value that can be measured by documentary evidence. Evidence used to prove the value of economic damage at trial could include bills or invoices. Non-economic damages are not as simple to establish. These damages are difficult to measure, and a jury must determine its value. Common examples of non-economic damages in a Clayton bus crash lawsuit include pain and suffering or loss of companionship.
