What types of damages might I recover in a car accident?

Depending on the facts of your case, you may be able to recover a variety of damages in an auto accident. There are two types of damages: economic and non-economic. Economic damage is defined as measurable cash losses. They often include medical expenses (such as hospital bills, surgeries, rehabilitation, and future medical care), lost pay due to time away from work, and loss of earning capacity if your injuries hinder your ability to work in the long run. You may also be able to receive compensation for property damage, such as vehicle repair or replacement. Non-economic damages are less quantifiable but as important. These include emotional discomfort, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of consortium. These damages represent the physical and emotional toll the accident has taken on your life. Punitive damages may be granted in some circumstances of extreme carelessness or reckless behavior to punish the culprit and deter similar conduct in the future. At Monheit Law, we meticulously assess all aspects of your case to ensure that you receive the full compensation to which you are entitled. Every case is unique, and we are dedicated to fighting for the most recovery possible on your behalf.

How long would my car accident case take to resolve?

The time it takes to resolve an auto accident case varies greatly based on a number of factors. In general, simple cases with clear liability and small injuries can be settled in a few months, particularly if the insurance company cooperates. More complex cases, with catastrophic injuries, contested liability, or several parties, can take a year or more to resolve. At Monheit Law, we recognize that accident victims require prompt recompense, and we work hard to advance your case while protecting your rights completely. Following an initial inquiry and examination, we normally try to reach an agreement with the insurance company. If a fair settlement is not available, we may need to launch a lawsuit, which can take longer but is sometimes essential to obtain the compensation you deserve. Furthermore, the timeframe of your case is heavily influenced by your medical treatment. It is frequently preferable to wait until you have reached maximum medical improvement so that we can precisely evaluate the full value of your claim, including future medical needs.
