The answer is yes, especially if your PTSD was directly caused by someone else’s negligence. For example, if a drunk driver or a negligent doctor caused you to suffer severe emotional distress, an experienced personal injury lawyer at Curcio & Casciato can help you recover damages through an emotional distress claim. You may also be able to sue for negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress (IIED), depending on the facts of your case.
