Damages You Could Recover After A Personal Injury Accident In Palm Beach
Damages refer to everything the accident cost you financially and emotionally. After your accident, you can file a personal injury claim to pursue different types of damages for various losses.
Your economic damages repay you for the financial losses you suffered because of the accident. You could recover compensation for:
- Medical expenses
- Lost income
- Reduced earning capacity
- Property damage
Personal injury victims are often eligible to pursue non-economic damages for the intangible losses they suffered. Examples of recoverable non-economic damages include:
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Diminished quality of life
- Mental anguish

Our Palm Beach Injury Lawyers Can Establish Negligence To Seek Compensation
Before you can file a personal injury claim, our accident attorneys must prove another party’s negligence was the cause of your injury. Negligence means that the other party’s action or inaction caused your accident and injuries.
Examples of negligence include:
- A doctor’s failure to diagnose a patient with a disease
- A truck driver falling asleep at the wheel
- A distracted driver hitting a pedestrian
- A business owner failing to provide proper lighting inside stairwells or warn customers of hazards on the property
While the liable party will likely be an individual or a business, schools, cities, and other government entities can be liable for negligence, as well. Often, schools may fail to supervise children who end up suffering an injury, or cities fail to repair dangerous conditions on sidewalks or public areas.
Is It Possible To Recover Compensation In A Personal Injury Case Without Proving Negligence?
Yes, but only in rare cases. For example, companies that put defective or poorly designed products on Palm Beach shelves may be liable to you for the injuries that these products cause—even if the manufacturers were not negligent. Because it is almost impossible to prove a manufacturer’s negligence, the law only requires you to prove the following:
- The product was defective/unreasonably dangerous when it left the manufacturer.
- You did not alter the product substantially after you received it.
- You were using the product as the manufacturer intended.
- The defect caused your injury.
- You suffered damages.
We will look into the grounds under which we could hold the manufacturer accountable.
Our Personal Injury Lawyers Gather Evidence To Prove You Deserve Compensation
Proving someone else was negligent and, therefore, responsible for your accident requires immediate action. Our personal injury attorneys in Palm Beach must collect evidence quickly before someone cleans up the scene, memories fade, or dishonest parties destroy evidence.
The evidence we will obtain to prove negligence includes:
- Incident/accident reports
- Video surveillance
- Eyewitness statements
- Photographs of an accident scene
In certain types of accidents, such as truck accidents, the defendant has the evidence we need. In these cases, we send a letter of spoliation to ensure the defendant preserves and hands over the evidence we request.
