Beyond medical bills and lost wages, you can claim several other types of damages. These include pain and suffering, which compensates for the physical pain and emotional distress caused by the accident. You may also claim for loss of quality of life if your ability to enjoy daily activities is diminished. Claims for property damage cover any repairs or replacement of your vehicle and other personal property. In certain cases, you might be eligible for punitive damages to punish particularly reckless behavior by the at-fault party. Additionally, if you have sustained long-term or permanent injuries, you may claim loss of earning capacity.
