Baltimore Premises Liability
Lawyer

Depending on the severity of your injuries and the physical and emotional toll it has taken on your daily life, you could be eligible for both economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages involve the out-of-pocket expenses you face due to the accident and resulting injuries. These may include:

• Past, present, and future medical expenses (e.g., hospital stays, any surgeries or procedures, assistive medical devices, physical therapy, prescription medicines, etc.)
• Lost wages (e.g., time missed at work due to doctor’s appointments)
• Loss of future earning capacity (e.g., you had to take a lower-paying job because your injuries prevent you from performing your current work duties)
• Property damage (e.g., your grandmother’s watch shattered as a result of the slip and fall)

Non-economic damages are less tangible and not as easy to calculate as economic damages. They account for the emotional impact the incident has taken on your life. Non-economic damages may include:

• Pain and suffering (as a result of the accident)
• Loss of enjoyment of activities (e.g., you may no longer be able to garden or ride your bike due to the injuries you suffered)
• Mental anguish (e.g., your injuries have left you anxious, depressed, or unable to sleep)
• Disfigurement or permanent disability (e.g., your injuries have permanently altered your appearance or left you with bodily limitations)
• Loss of consortium (if you lost a loved one due to the incident)
