You may have the right to receive compensation for economic and non-economic losses related to your slip and fall accident and injuries.
Economic losses include medical expenses, estimated future medical expenses, lost wages, estimated future lost wages, rehabilitation expenses, and costs for assistive devices such as wheelchairs, canes, and walkers.
Non-economic losses include compensation for pain and suffering, mental anguish, loss of consortium, reduced quality of life, and others that apply to your case. In rare cases of intentional harm or gross negligence, courts sometimes award punitive damages to the plaintiff as a way to punish the defendant.
There is no guarantee that you will recover compensation in a lawsuit, nor can a lawyer predict how much money you might obtain. However, the most reliable way to give yourself the best possible chance of recovering every dollar you deserve is to speak with a skilled Philadelphia slip and fall attorney right away after suffering your injury.
