Personal injury law in Rhode Island allows for victims to pursue financial compensation from the parties responsible for their injuries. Personal injury lawsuits in Rhode Island can award the injured party with monetary damages, which attempt to place the victim in the same position they were prior to the accident. Although each case is different, personal injury litigation strives to obtain the following monetary damages when applicable:
- Pain and suffering
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Loss of earning capacity
- Mental anguish
- Loss of life’s enjoyment
- Permanent disability
- Disfigurement
The amount of these monetary damages will be announced at the conclusion of the personal injury lawsuit. Although many personal injury claims in Rhode Island reach trial, most end in personal injury settlements. In general, most personal injury lawsuit settlements depend on the following factors: the severity of the injury, the amount of economic damages (i.e. lost wages, medical expenses) and the amount of time the injury is expected to last.
